Matthew, who is also well known for playing Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter franchise, is a huge football fan, and previously shared a throwback to the World Cup, writing: “Throwback to 2018 when we got wrecked watching England at 6 am in LA and then crashed a baby shower. The parents were cool with it because even out in California back then they knew what we know now… it’s coming home.”

He previously shared a photo of himself in costume to mark the beginning of filming, writing: “It’s been a long old off-season since the pandemic began. In the previous 27 years, I’ve been in this joke of a profession, I’ve been lucky enough not to be out of work for as long as I have this past year or so. But I’m now over my Covid, over my jet lag and ready to get back into Hulton’s patent leather loafers next week. See you all in Darrowby!”

Speaking about the new series, which is yet to have a release date, Sebastian Cardwell, Channel 5 Deputy Director of Programmes, said: "In challenging times, this new adaptation gained a special place in the heart of the British public. With values of community spirit, solidarity and heart-felt compassion, these stories are important ones for us to tell, now more than ever. I’m delighted that we will be seeing more of James and his Darrowby family when they return to our screens soon."
