Channel 4 has recommissioned acclaimed comedy Big Boys for a second series.
The show - a semi-autobiographical tale from Jack Rooke - follows two best mates, one gay and one straight, as they navigate the trials and tribulations of university life.
"The response to Big Boys series 1 has been so phenomenally kind, heartwarming and beyond anything any of us could have hoped for," said Rooke.
"The fact we got onto Gogglebox is probably the proudest moment of mine and my mum's lives (she got over 100 likes on Facebook for it!) And so after a huge spitroast at Harvester, I decided I probably do have some more embarrassing stories about me & my mates to mine for comic material so get ready for an even more cringe second year at Brent University."
C4 comedy head Charlie Perkins added: "I'm so happy to confirm that Big Boys is returning.
"This is one of my first commissions as Head of Comedy at Channel 4 and it fits squarely into what I think makes the greatest comedy; so much heart blended with so much silliness. Jack is a very special person, I can't wait for what's to come in series two."
The new series is expected to air in 2023.
