CATHY is set to come home and appear on our TV screens again in Two Doors Down.
Doon Mackichan is confirmed to reprise her role in the BBC’s multi-award-winning sitcom.
The much-loved show is now filming its seventh series, after Cathy left her husband Colin in season six. The fan favourite character left Colin broken-hearted as she had left for a new life in Sharm El Sheikh.
The new six-episode run is set to be shown later this year.
Doon Mackichan said: "I have missed the Two Doors Down family very much so it’s a genuine delight to see Cathy bring her unique brand of community spirit back to Latimer Crescent. Beth - get a bottle open."
Co-creators Gregor Sharp and Simon Carlyle said: “Doon is one of the UK’s very best comic actors, so we’re thrilled to bits that she’s returned to pick up Cathy’s vape and rejoin the rest of our brilliant cast.”
Steven Canny, executive producer, added: “It’s a total pleasure to welcome Doon back to the family. We’ve been making Two Doors Down for a decade and couldn’t be happier that Cathy has come home again.”
The neighbours rallied round to support Colin at his lowest as well as welcome his new lover Anne Marie, played by Siobhan Redmond.
The stellar cast back this series includes Jonathan Watson as Colin, Arabella Weir as Beth, Alex Norton as Eric, Elaine C Smith as Christine, Jamie Quinn as Ian, Kieran Hodgson as Gordon, Joy McAvoy as Michelle, and Graeme ‘Grado’ Stevely as Alan.
The 2022 Christmas special attracted the show's highest audience to date with 2.8 million viewing the special across 30 days on all screens. This marked the show’s highest audience since its launch in 2013.
