Apple TV+'s beloved comedy drama, Trying, has been renewed for a fifth season – and fans are over the moon.
The acclaimed series, which has been hailed as "addictive", stars Esther Smith and Rafe Spall as couple Nikki and Jason on their journey to parenthood and life as adoptive parents.
While details about the upcoming series have been kept under wraps, we do know that season five finds Nikki and Jason dealing with the consequences of Princess and Tyler's biological mother, Kat (Charlotte Riley), turning up at their doorstep, and the whirlwind of chaos she brings into their settled family life.
The series, which is created, written and executive produced by Andy Wolton, also stars Darren Boyd (The Outlaws) as Scott, Sian Brooke (Blue Lights) as Karen, Scarlett Rayner (Sexy Beast) as Princess and Cooper Turner as Tyler.

Esther and Rafe on their on-screen chemistry
In an exclusive chat with HELLO! ahead of season four's release in May last year, leading stars Esther and Rafe, who are a couple on and off-screen, revealed what makes their characters so perfect for each other.
Rafe said: "They really like each other and I think that's quite aspirational. They're a couple that when you watch them, you go, 'Ah, that'd be nice' and that's really lovely.

On how their relationship changed following season four's time jump and being parents to older children, Esther added: "I think what gets them through is their sense of humour with each other. They have fun together, but it's definitely changed their dynamic in the house because there's essentially four grown-ups living there now."
