Catherine Tate is bringing her character Nan back to BBC One.
Following 2014's one-off special, Joannie 'Nan' Taylor will feature in two extra half-hour episodes for the channel.
The new specials, directed by Geoff Posner, will be filmed later this year for broadcast in 2016.
Tate, Brett Goldstein and Dan Swimer are penning the scripts.
"Nan is one of the most iconic comedy characters of our time, and it's thrilling to welcome her back to BBC One," said BBC controller of comedy commissioning Shane Allen.
"Catherine's performance is as close to comic perfection as you can get."
