The one reboot I've been desperate for! 🚨
Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps is set to return to screens.
The cult Noughties sitcom is reportedly being lined up for a revival after creator Susan Nickson secured the rights from the BBC, opening the door for the series to return via another broadcaster or streaming platform.
The much-loved comedy, which originally ran for nine series between 2001 and 2011, starred Sheridan Smith, Will Mellor and Ralf Little and became one of the BBC’s biggest comedy hits of the era.
Reports suggest the original cast are all on board for a reunion, with Sheridan Smith previously saying she would love to bring the show back, while Will Mellor has also spoken of his hopes to reunite the gang.
Set in Runcorn, the sitcom remains a fan favourite, with repeats continuing to attract audiences on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three.
