The acclaimed third series of Not Going Out, the Royal Television Society and Golden Rose award-winning BBC One sitcom written by and starring Lee Mack, is to be released on DVD by Universal Pictures Playback.
Packed full of the jokes, jibes and general misunderstandings of happy-go-lucky Lee (Lee Mack), his best mate Tim (fellow BAFTA Award winner Tim Vine) and the object of Lee’s hapless affections, his landlady and Tim’s sister Lucy (Sally Bretton, The Office, Green Wing) the DVD is out on 27th September 2010.
Following the series two finale, in which Lee successfully sabotaged Lucy’s relationship with her then boyfriend Guy, we find a man still unburdened by ambition or drive, and with no significant plan to address his feelings for Lucy.
However with pregnancies, insurance scams and lesbian neighbours muddying the water, not to mention having to deal with his well-meaning but utterly useless cleaner Barbara (Miranda Hart, Miranda), Tim’s ditzy girlfriend (Katy Wix, Torchwood) and his long-lost dad (Tommy Ball) it looks like he’s got enough to keep his mind off the bigger picture.
The DVD contains all eight episodes of series three of Not Going Out which originally broadcast in 2009, as well as ‘Bonus Extra: Not Going Out on Location’, which takes a look behind the scenes of the primetime Friday sitcom.
A brand new, much anticipated fourth series of Not Going Out will broadcast on BBC One this autumn.
