It's finally official: Popular comedy Doc Martin will conclude with its tenth season, set to film in 2021. 

Netflix's Derry Girls is not just a hysterically funny comedy - it's a big, open-hearted tale of friendship, feminism and growing up, all set against the background of The Troubles in Northern Ireland. 

Actress Dawn French, best known to British comedy fans for her starring role in The Vicar of Dibley, will return to PBS stations this fall in a heartwarming new comedy-drama known as The Trouble with Maggie Cole. 

On paper, Hulu's In My Skin is a typical coming of age drama, full of sly observations about the difficulties of high school and painful reminders of how cruel teenagers can be to one another. Yet, though this series does include both those things in spades, its dark atmosphere, complex heroine, and dedication to flouting expectations of what a teen comedy should be and do ultimately turn the show into something entirely different. 

Our series Dated or Delightful returns with a look back at the 1990's sitcom Waiting for God.  Are the exploits of two free-thinking pensioners against the money-grubbing corporation that runs their retirement home old hat or does the series still ring true today?

Streaming service Hulu has acquired BBC comedy In My Skin, a dark, comedic look at growing up that will premiere in June.

While we may not get another season of Good Omens that doesn't mean we won't see David Tennant and Michael Sheen together on our screens again. And sooner than you might think! 

Ricky Gervais' comedy drama After Life has already gotten the green light for a third season from Netflix. 

The Ricky Gervais comedy-drama series After Life will return to Netflix for Season 2 this April, and the first trailer promises more of the same cathartic and heartwarming emotion. 

AppleTV+ will launch its first British comedy this Spring - entitled Trying, it's coming to us from the creators of the popular (and hilarious) Amazon Prime Video series Catastrophe.
