Comedian delighted sitcom will continue
Southport Visiter
|June 05, 2025
COMEDY star Lee Mack has shared an exciting career update as his hit sitcom Not Going Out is due to continue until at least 2026 after being renewed for a 15th season.
The Southport comedian stars in the show, which debuted in 2006 and features him playing a fictionalised version of himself.
The programme faced a brief hiatus after its third series in 2009 but made a swift comeback in 2011 and has been a staple ever since.
Overjoyed, Lee said: “I am delighted that the BBC are once again showing such great support for studio sitcom.
"It's a genre I've always loved and to be able to be part of it myself for so many years is both a privilege and an excuse not to have to shop, as I always take the underpants they give me home.”
Jon Petrie, the BBC's director of comedy, said: “Not Going Out is in rude health as it passes its centenary episode and that’s due to the incredible creativity of Lee Mack, who has the most amazing ability to pack a show full of jokes.
