MRS Brown’s Boys is returning to the BBC as a series for the first time in almost a decade. The last run of the hit comedy, based around the family of Brendan O’Carroll’s foul-mouthed Irish “Mammy” Agnes Brown, aired in 2013.
But a cast source last night confirmed they were booked to film new episodes in April, saying: “Everyone is very excited. "It’s lovely to be working on another series. “The cast can’t wait to see Brendan’s scripts.” The show made its screen debut in 2011 and proved a huge hit with millions of fans, who voted it best sitcom of the 21st century.
It was named best comedy at the National Television Awards three years running. And its first Christmas special in 2013 pulled in 9.2 million viewers. @font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.woff') format('woff'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.ttf') format('truetype'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Regular.svg#') format('svg');font-style:normal;font-weight:400;font-display:swap;}@font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.woff') format('woff'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.ttf') format('truetype'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-Medium.svg#') format('svg');font-style:normal;font-weight:500;font-display:swap;}@font-face{font-family:'The Sun';src:url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-HeavyNarrow.woff2') format('woff2'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-HeavyNarrow.woff') format('woff'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-HeavyNarrow.ttf') format('truetype'),url('/assets/fonts/the-sun/TheSun-HeavyNarrow.svg#').
