BAD

news for fans of Miranda Hart’s eponymous sitcom – with the comedian denying claims that her award-winning show will return for a fourth series later this year. She tweets: “Not true. Don’t know where this came from, it’s news to me. Have thought about it but that’s all… I write and play her and she’s still on honeymoon!”

The sitcom starring Miranda, 45, as a clumsy posh singleton, ran for three series from 2009 to 2012, achieving audiences of 11.5 million at its peak. In 2014 a two-part Christmas special, even entitled The Finale, in which her character married long-term love interest Gary, played by

Tom Ellis, 39, was meant to draw a line under the show.
