Kevin Bishop to star in brand new Porridge this summer!

Thursday 16th June 2016

This summer we'll see our Kevin Bishop star in a brand new episode of Porridge!

Kevin will play Nigel 'Fletch' Fletcher, the grandson of Norman Stanley Fletch (originally played by Ronnie Barker). We're so excited for this one-off special, it's been written by the original series creators!

Kevin says: "Dick and Ian have brought Porridge back to life again with a brilliant script and it is a genuine honour to be involved in a show that is iconic in so many ways. Ronnie Barker’s character was one of the most loved in BBC history and the thought of stepping into his grandson’s shoes fills me with both thrills and paralytic fear!”

More details to follow soon, but you won't want to miss this.
