Robert Lindsay has confirmed he is in talks to reprise his role as Wolfie in 'Citizen Smith'.
The 'My Family' star was approached by a production house who are keen to bring back the popular BBC sitcom, which had four series from 1977 to 1980 and he thinks it's a "fantastic idea" for his socialite character to return as a politician running for the Labour Party.
He revealed: "There are moves afoot in the industry to bring Citizen Smith back with some respected figures that I very much admire.
"I've been chased by a production company which is very much trying to get Wolfie to run for the Labour Party and bring him back into power. I think that's a fantastic idea."
Meanwhile, the 65-year-old British actor admitted he didn't complete 'Citizen Smith' because at the time he wanted to be seen as a "serious actor" and you couldn't do that working on sitcoms, despite later taking on his most noted role alongside co-star Zoë Wanamaker [Susan Harper] as Ben Harper in the hit comedy 'My Family'.
He told The Independent newspaper: "It was a series I never finished. It was just beginning to become huge. You know what happens -- you want to be a serious actor, you don't want to do sitcoms.
"That's the funny thing with sitcoms. The word 'sitcom' becomes such a dirty word."

Sam Faiers doesn't think giving birth will be "too bad".
The former 'The Only Way is Essex' star is expecting her first child with partner Paul Knightley but she isn't worried about going into labour as she is confident things will be "easy and normal".
She said: "I'm not scared about giving birth. I have this feeling that it's not going to be too bad.
"I want it as natural as possible - maybe a bit of gas and air. I've been a birthing partner three times now and each time has been quite traumatic.
"I just want mine to be as easy and normal as possible. I think if that's my attitude then it'll happen that way."
As well as Paul, Sam also wants her mother and sister Billie to be with her when she birth.
Asked if Billie will be there, she said: "Yes and my mum. Billie said to be, 'I have to be there, please let me be there.'"
When Billie had her own daughter Nelly, she gave her the middle name 'Samantha', so her sister is now considering returning the gesture.
She told OK!: "We're both quote traditional so I don't think we'll go for anything funky or modern [for a first name]. I'd like to keep it old-fashioned and English.
"[Will it be Billy or Billie as a middle name?]I hadn't thought about that! I might have to owe that one to Billie."

Frankie Bridge will be a "sofa critic" while watching the new series of 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
The Saturdays singer took part in last year's competition with professional dancer Kevin Clifton and though she has always been a fan of the programme, she thinks her own experiences will now make her watch the show in a different way.
She said: "I've always watched 'Strictly' with my family. but seeing it now is a completely different experience as I know what everyone is going through behind the scenes.
"No doubt I'm going to become a bit of a sofa critic now I have that inside knowledge - I won't be able to stop myself picking at their dance moves and noticing when they do things wrong."
And the 'Ego' singer - who has 22-month-old son Parker and three-week-old Carter with husband Wayne Bridge - is feeling "jealous" of the celebrities competing for the glitterball trophy this year.
She wrote in her column for OK! magazine: "I'm already feeling so jealous of all the celebrities taking part this year, it really is such a fun show to be a part of and the backstage camaraderie between everyone was one of my favourite things about doing the series."

Anne Robinson has quit 'Watchdog'.
The 70-year-old presenter had decided to step down from the BBC One consumer programme after 15 years.
She said in a statement: "It's been an honour to be part of the most important consumer show in Britain."
The announcement comes following the success of Anne's new BBC One show 'Britain's Spending Secrets', which pulled in an impressive 5.7 million viewers and has now been commissioned for a new series to begin production in the autumn.
During her 15 years on 'Watchdog', Anne and the rest of the ream have taken on some of world's biggest companies which, at one point, resulted in 10 of Britain's biggest corporations meeting to discuss what they considered to be unfair treatment by the programme.
BBC One controller Charlotte Moore shared: "Annie is a much-treasured part of the BBC One family and I'm grateful for everything she has done on 'Watchdog' for nearly 15 years. I'm looking forward to her returning to the channel with a new factual series next year."
Despite Anne's decision to step down, 'Watchdog' will be back with a new series this autumn with Matt Allwright and Chris Hollins returning as part of the new presenting team.

'Coronation Street' actress Jane Danson wants the Battersby family to reunite.
The 36-year-old star, who plays Leanne Battersby in the ITV soap, has confessed she's missing her on-screen family including mum and dad Janice (Vicky Entwistle) and Les (Bruce Jones), and sister Toyah (Georgia Taylor).
Speaking about how she originally returned to the famous cobbles after a four year hiatus in 2004 because she wanted to work with them again, Jane told ITV's 'Lorraine': "I missed them really. Lots of my family, the Battersbys, were still there. So there was reason for Leanne to go back, which she did.
"And now I'm the last Battersby standing. So it would be nice if at some point they came to visit me."
Jane almost got her wish last year when fans started a petition to get struggling actor Bruce back on the soap.
He was famously axed from Corrie amid reports he was drinking heavily and spilling top secret storylines to friends in his local pub.
He made a plea to TV bosses in a bid to return to Weatherfield but it fell on deaf ears.
He said: "I know there is still room for Les on the show somewhere.
"It would be nice to go back and relive those days. I'd like to be part of the team again. I miss them. I worked there for a long time.
"My heart will always be with Coronation Street."

Chris Ellison thinks Gail Porter should be removed from the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house.
The 'Bill' actor - who became the second contestant to be evicted from the reality show house on Tuesday (08.09.15) - has revealed he's worried about Gail.
He said: "She really wants to come out, I know that. She's crying a lot, she's very emotionally upset, she's finding it very, very difficult."
Former TV presenter Gail, 44, has famously struggled with depression in the past and was diagnosed with bipolar a number of years ago.
Speaking about how she tries to deal with her issues in the house, Chris explained: "That's why she cleans all the time and that's why she does so much, she's trying to keep herself busy because she's very, very emotional. And finding it very difficult."
The 68-year-old star also admitted that even though he believes she's being looked after by some of the other housemates, he wishes she could have been voted off instead.
He told the Daily Star newspaper: "I'm very worried about Gail. I mean, she's got Natasha Hamilton, who's her friend, and [Fatman] Scoop has sort of taken her under his wing as well, so he's OK on that score, but I think she's suffering."
Chris added: "I just felt that if it hadn't been me, I wish it had been her in a way because I think she needed more than anyone to come out."
'Celebrity Big Brother' continues tonight (10.09.15) at 9pm on Channel 5.

Alvin Magallanes has been eliminated from 'The Great British Bake Off'.
The 37-year-old nurse became the latest amateur baker to be given the boot by judges Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood in last night's (09.09.15) episode of the BBC One baking show after he failed to impress during pastry week.
Speaking after his elimination, Alvin said: "I feel I can call myself a good baker now, as I have moved on from cupcakes and sponges.
"I like to keep challenging myself, which is good I think. I was flattered and proud when Mary commented on my flavours, and to hear that is an amazing thing."
However, Alvin has no plans to give up his day job in pursuit of a full-time career in baking.
He explained: "I am carrying on with my nursing, but would also like to take a patisserie course and get some kind of qualification working with chocolate.
"The family love watching the show and when I am cringing on the couch it's good to get such good reassuring comments from them and friends.
"My daughter is my best critic and she tells me I am amazing on the show, and that's good enough for me.
"Each week I watch the show with family and friends and from the first week I have made bakes from every episode and brought them into work, I get my orders!"
Alvin will appear on 'The Great British Bake Off: An Extra Slice' on Friday (11.09.15) at 9pm on BBC Two.

Jonathan Ross thinks Kanye West is interesting in the same way "mentally ill people are interesting".
The 54-year-old chat show host has blasted the 'All Day' rapper - who's married to reality TV star Kim Kardashian West - for his outlandish and bizarre public appearances and compared his way of thinking to that of people who suffer from mental illnesses.
Speaking on Keith Lemon's ITV panel show 'Celebrity Juice', Jonathan said: "He's weird. He's interesting, but only in the way mentally ill people are interesting."
The 'Jonathan Ross Show' host also claimed he was less than impressed with the 38-year-old star's performance at Glastonbury festival this summer.
He said: "I saw him at Glastonbury and he delivered what even a fan would say was a lack-lustre performance. He stopped and said, 'Right now you are watching the greatest f**king rock star on the planet'.
"No one thinks that but you, and you should have the politeness not to say it out loud."
However, Jonathan - who welcomed Kanye on to his ITV chat show earlier this year - insisted he does get on with the controversial musician.
He added: "I really like him... but no one likes him as much as he likes him."

Caroline Flack posted a photo of her nipple on Instagram.
The 'X Factor' host was left red faced after she appeared to accidentally upload a snap of her new haircut with her nipple clearly visible in the bottom right corner.
She captioned the photo: "Summer party vibes ...Thank you for my hair and make up @gemflossy .... (sic)."
And although the 35-year-old presenter quickly realised her mistake and deleted the x-rated image, she later uploaded the same photograph but cropped it just enough so that her nipple could no longer be seen.
Appearing to acknowledge her rookie mistake, she wrote: "Bloody el.... Hair and make up by @gemflossy (sic)."
Meanwhile, Caroline - who previously dated One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles and music manager Jack Street - is currently preparing for the release of her first book, 'Storm In A C Cup'.
Revealing the news last month, she wrote: "HELLO LIFE! I've written a book about you.
"You've certainly been adventurous and I've made loads of stupid mistakes that have all ended up ok!!!!! Hooray. Available to pre- order now on AMAZON ... And out to read on October the 22nd... 🙂 (sic)."
