It starts at 6 pm on Monday 28th October.
I wonder what might be removed due to copyright and other issues.
Looking forward to that.

Do we know how far back it will be starting ?
I can see my Sky planner getting full !
Still can't believe it was cancelled, one of those shows you thought would go on forever. I still think the format could be revived, with the right host and with a different name so that people weren't always comparing it to Harry Hill's version of the show.
It wasn't cancelled Harry decided that he didn't want to do it any more, ITV wanted him to carry on, it was a great show and hopefully Harry will return at some point.
Probably alot if they cant get the rights. Oh well thankfully I recorded them when they originally aired so got nothing to worry about.
Will be good to see the older episodes again .
I think they would be better off starting from S1 because when it started 80 percent of the show was sketch based. Harry played quite a few characters including a very funny portrayal of David Dickinson.
and the puppet Eastenders because the BBC wouldn't allow them clips until a light bulb in a BBC producer's head went "What are We DOING!! This show gives us free publicity on our biggest rivals allow them clips immediately"
The reason why I think he didn't want to do it any more, is because they kept making him do long runs - hence why it was probably getting tired.
He was doing 24 episodes per series. 8 in the autumn (October-November) and 8 in the spring (April-May alongside BGT) could have done well.
Maybe he could do a special TV Burp this Christmas, where he looks back on the year's TV?
When ITV aired the long runs of the show it really got tired because it because just the same jokes awkwardly placed around footage of Coronation Street. How many times did he need to have 'Hev' appear?
But the early days were golden! I'll never forget the "Woman posts invisible letter in Coronation Street"

I laughed my buttocks the first time I saw that.
Am I the only one who thinks Harry should return to ITV for a one off show?
That's one of my faves. I'm ready
I like the Kilroy stuff
And me.
You're right, Harry should return just to do a one-off New Year's special or something.
Should we set up a petition?
