The show will hit screens in September, with the six-part season reuniting Mitchell and Webb on screen for the first time since 2017’s Back, and 12 years after the end of Peep Show.

Produced by That Mitchell & Webb Company in association with Big Talk Studios (Friday Night Dinner), the show comes directed by their longtime collaborator Gareth Edwards, marking the comedy legends’ biggest return to sketch comedy since That Mitchell & Webb Look ended over a decade ago.

Joining them will be up-and-coming performers Kiell Smith-Bynoe (Ghosts, Taskmaster), Lara Ricote (Live at the Apollo), Stevie Martin (Starstruck), and Krystal Evans (Scot Squad), alongside a multigenerational mix of established and emerging writers.

The preview clip sees a particularly flustered Mitchell as a passenger enduring the perils of airport security, with fans somewhat divided over the humour.
