At 8.30pm on ITV1 according to Linda Robson on twitter.
Who is excited? I love the original series so much and I am weary of how it will be received in 2014 but I will hope its just as good writing wise as the 1989 - 98 series.

lol I am still used to calling it ITV1
Yes I've been watching it recently. I really like that channel.
Thanks for the date and time. I shall be watching.
Whenever these old shows return they're never the same.That said I will still check it out.Whether it's good or not it won't ruin my enjoyment of the old ones.The chemistry between the three leads was great and the writing brilliant.
A warning from history.
I agree. When I saw this thread my immediate thought was, oh god, the actors need some money.
You think? I thought Series 7 was more or less flawless I adored the revelation that Marcus had a secret other wife. The new Darryl was a terrible actor true but then Alun Lewis wasn't that great either imo
Even the last two series had their golden moments "Sunday" when the three leads get trapped in a carpark is definetly in the top 10 best episodes for me.
I think it's successful return on stage last year will help this new TV series. It's not like it's coming back out of the blue. Open All Hours should be good fun too because many of the original people are involved. Both shows are definitely worth revisiting.
Except Ark..Ark..Ark..Arkwright of course, the most important character. Reminds me a bit of the resurrected Reggie Perrin in the 90's with everyone but Leonard Rossiter. I think Birds Of A Feather will fit back in quite seamlessly actually, but whether being ITV rather than BBC will prove crucial is a point worth considering. ITV do not have a great track record anymore with sitcoms, although Vicious earlier this year was great.
This show has always been utter shite. One of the worst sitcoms ever to appear on TV, even worse than "Bottle Boys" and "Take a letter Mr Jones".
Thx for posting
Does that mean Sharon & Tracey have been estranged from Dorien for the last 15 years? if so I do not like that would prefer to think they had remained close during that time.
