Josh Widdicombe's BBC sitcom pilot proved funny enough to be granted a full series.
The popular stand-up comic will lead the cast of Josh, following a successful Comedy Feed pilot online in 2014. The six-part series will air on BBC Three in November.
Co-written by Widdicombe and Tom Craine, it will be directed by frequent Steve Coogan collaborator David Schneider, and also stars Beattie Edmondson, Ellis James and Jack Dee.
Centred around grumpy and single Josh and his two flatmates Kate and Owen, his life is plagued with crappy situations such as a rubbish pool party and being played by his high school crush.
Jack Dee plays their bizarre landlord who inserts himself into their lives as much as possible, whether they want him there or not.
There will also be a host of celebrity cameos throughout the series, including Jennifer Saunders, Romesh Ranganathan, James Acaster and... The Chuckle Brothers!

That's it! Finito! Goodbye! Yes, we've come to the end of the Britain's Got Talent auditions - and what a ride it has been. We've had all sorts... but, of course, there were just a final few auditions to be had. And, in true Bgt tradition, the standard of acts on offer was somewhat... variable. Read on as we round-up the good, the bad and the bizarre one final time...
The Good...
Ellis James Chick: 12-year-old Ellis is basically the dictionary definition of 'cute as a button', but sadly, that on its own is not a talent. Luckily, Ellis also likes to sing - and dance ("I'm always jigging around.") He wasn't nervous ("hashtag Yolo!") and in the end, his performance of 'You Make Me Feel So Young' was surprising - his voice sounded much older than he was, in a good way. Very smooth. Simon did have some criticism...
