3rd series for Armstrong and Miller confirmed
It has been confirmed that BBC1 has ordered a third run of the hit sketch show series The Armstrong and Miller Show, before the second series has even aired.
Ben Miller, who writes and performs the Hat Trick produced show with Alexander Armstrong, confirmed to Broadcast Magazine that BBC1 controller Jay Hunt has given the go-ahead for a third series for 2010. However, as is increasingly becoming the case, this news has already been leaked on Twitter a number of weeks ago.
The second series of the duo's sketch show is set to air this autumn. The BBC shelved an original plan to air it on Saturdays this summer in a move aimed to help deliver bumper ratings for their flagship channel this autumn.
