Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer’s ‘Vic & Bob’s Big Night Out’ is returning for a second series.
The comedy duo’s high-octane show will be back on BBC Four for a new instalment, in which they will perform their hit sketches The Free Runners and Mostly UnHaunted, and the pair will be joined once again by hapless Vaun (Vaun Earl Norman).
Vic and Bob said: "We’ve had so much fun writing this series, the chemistry between us has never been so explosive and we can’t wait to get going – for our writing to make it on screen and see how it all works out."
Bob has been practicing his musical dance routines during his downtime ahead of trying to impress the audience and Vic with his latest skills.
The show will feature a number of new characters and guest stars, and will include the return of Novelty Island.
Shane Allen, controller comedy commissioning, said: "Vic and Bob continue to pioneer, dazzle and reduce audiences to helpless laughter.
"Who knows what inventive brilliance is in store, it’s not like the scripts will give us much of a clue.
"They return at the height of their comedy powers with more audience love than ever."
Cassian Harrison, channel editor at BBC Four, added: "I am overjoyed to welcome back Vic and Bob to BBC Four.
"Their big night out was a must-see moment on the channel last year and we’re looking forward to even more of their inimitable anarchy."
The show is a reimagining of ‘Vic Reeves Big Night Out’, a stage and then TV show first broadcast on Channel 4 in 1990.
The programme spanned two series as well as a new year special, and marked the beginnings of Vic teaming up with Bob.
