Third series for Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard s Sky comedy
Sky’s parenting comedy Breeders has been renewed for a third series, the broadcaster announced tonight.
The news comes as the second series, starring Daisy Haggard and co-creator Martin Freeman, launches on Sky One tonight.
Series two jumps forward in time so the young children of the first run are now aged ten and 13.
Simon Blackwell, who co-writes the series with former stand-up Chris Addison, teased the possible third series last month, saying: ‘If there were a Season 3, we would want to make it as distinctive and as ambitious as the first two, so there would be some different stuff going on.’
Press Release
Sky today releases the official trailer for Intelligence 2, a Sky Original comedy returning to Sky One and streaming service NOW from 8 June.
At the end of the first series of Intelligence, we saw NSA agent Jerry Bernstein (David Schwimmer) narrowly avoid being extradited back to the States to face charges of treason. Indebted to his boss Christine (Sylvestra Le Touzel) for stepping in to protect him at the last minute - albeit with ulterior motives - we start series 2 with Jerry on the back foot. However when it’s revealed that the Russians have got their hands on a cyberweapon that Jerry was instrumental in developing, his intel suddenly becomes vital to national, if not international, security. Facing some demons from his past along the way, by the end of episode 1 he is firmly back in his alpha male comfort zone and heralded a hero.
