The news follows the huge success of series one which aired back in August.
Following a successful launch back in August, BBC Two has confirmed that their hit new comedy We Might Regret This, will be returning for not just a second series, but also a third!
Created by Lee Getty and Kyla Harris, who also stars, the series has been hailed a watershed moment for disability representation, centres around Freya, played by Kyla Harris, a 30-something disabled Canadian artist, who has relocated to London for Abe, played by Darren Boyd, a 50-something straight-laced lawyer.
Freya requires full time round the clock care from a dedicated Personal Assistant (PA), meaning a third person present for every romantic moment and domestic dispute.
In series one, after struggling to find the right person for this more than intimate role, Freya invites chaotic and outspoken best-mate Jo, played by Elena Saurel, to take on the job. Alongside Abe’s (not quite) ex-wife Jane, played by Sally Phillips, and wayward adult son Levi, played by Edward Blumel, they make a messy blended family.
Speaking about the news, Lee Getty and Kyla Harris said "Season one was just the tip of the comedy iceberg and we’re beyond grateful to the BBC for their continued support and commitment to exploring disability, messy relationships and unparalleled intimacy on screen."
To which Ash Atalla, CEO of Roughcut, who produce the series in association with Village Roadshow, added "A show both full of heart and close to our hearts. So happy we get to make more of this series – both complex and silly, surely the best place to be."
And the BBC's Director of Comedy, Jon Petrie said "We’re proud to commission more episodes of We Might Regret This. Kyla, Lee, and the team have tapped into something truly unique—crafting comedy from deeply personal moments with such sharpness and heart. There’s still so much laughter to uncover in Freya’s world, and we can’t wait to see how they push the boundaries of comedy and character even further."
We Might Regret This will return to BBC Two
