Back in business: return of David Jason’s hit sitcom
Sir David Jason is to play Granville once again in a fifth series of Still Open All Hours this year.
The BBC confirmed the popular sitcom, which debuted in 2013 as a sequel to Open All Hours, will be filmed over the summer.
Open All Hours, which starred Sir David with late comic Ronnie Barker as stammering Albert Arkwright, ran from 1973 to 1985.
Sir David, 78, said: “I’m thrilled to be bringing Granville and Arkwright’s shop back to viewers’ TV screens along with his regular customers, who bring their own sense of barminess to the world of grocery.”
