ITV has ordered a full series of sitcom The Delivery Man after a successful pilot.
Darren Boyd and Aisling Bea will star in the comedy about a policeman who decides to become a midwife.
The new six-episode series follows a pilot episode filmed earlier this year, which also starred Fay Ripley, Alex Macqueen and Dominic Coleman.
Written by Green Wing's Robert Harley and James Henry, the series is expected to air on ITV in mid-2015.
It will be produced and directed by Green Wing creator Victoria Pile.
Further casting details are expected to be announced in the coming months, ahead of its recording in October.
Boyd is best known for his roles in Sky1's Spy and for playing John Cleese in the drama Holy Flying Circus. He appeared in an episode of HBO's Veep earlier this year.
