Cancelled BBC comedy Not Going Out could be revived for Season 8 as a family sitcom, series star Sally Bretton tells RadioTimes:
“[Creator Lee Mack is] very keen to do a family sitcom. He has been for quite some time. He’s got a young family. He wants to write what he knows about now,” she exclusively told RadioTimes.com, when we asked about the future of Not Going Out and the possibility of new episodes. In the ten years since Not Going Out began, Mack’s become a father of three – and new episodes would likely see the comedian “mine” his family life”
Bretton isn’t sure whether the potential new episodes would be part of a full eighth season or one-off specials, but would be eager to reprise her role:
“I suppose that depends on the BBC and on how Lee feels, whether he fancies sitting down and writing tons or whether he wants to dip in and out.” But either way, she’d “always, always” be keen to return to Not Going Out. “I love everyone. It’s brilliant. All you do is laugh your head off all day long. It’s a great job.”
Stay tuned for any news on a potential Not Going Out Season 8 revival…
