After seven years off air, Dave Gorman: Modern Life Is Goodish returns to TV this February.

Series 6 of the show from the "high priest of comedy PowerPoint" starts on U&Dave on 24th February, for a three-part run.

The producers explain: "Dave Gorman: Modern Life Is Goodish ran for five series on Dave, attracting 1.5 million viewers per episode at its peak and was one of UKTV's longest running and successful original commissions. Armed with a computer, clicker and checked shirt, Dave casts an eye over modern life in his own unique style combining stand-up, visual storytelling, and real-world experimentation. In these mischievous comedy performances, Dave turns his attention to the areas of everyday life we normally take for granted - scrutinising the absurdities and contradictions that continue to fascinate and infuriate him. In this series probing modern life's follies... fake search engines, big tech's rules, a reinvention of the alphabet, a battle with an online nemesis, assistance from an entertainment legend, AI, honesty in TV, leaving London and notions of 'celebrity' all get the Goodish treatment."

Gorman himself says: "I'm delighted to be getting back in the Goodish saddle. It's been 7 years since I hung up my Modern Life Is Goodish clicker and in that time, life has definitely got 7 years moderner - so there should be plenty to get my teeth into."

The series starts on U&Dave at 9pm on Monday 24th February, with all three episodes available as a boxset on the network's streaming service at the same time.
