Third series for Scot Squad

Filming begins in Glasgow

Scot Squad is to return for a third series, with filming getting under way in Glasgow this week.

BBC Scotland has ordered another seven episodes of the part-improvised, part-scripted police comedy, including a Christmas special.

The returning cast includes Jack Docherty, Jordan Young, Sally Reid, Darren Connell, Grado, Manjot Sumal, Chris Forbes, Ashley Smith, James Kirk, Karen Bartke and ML Stone.

Rab Christie, executive producer for the Comedy Unit, said: 'The  cast of cops and robbers includes brand new comic talent, familiar faces and one or two national treasures who rub shoulders with the Squad.'

Filming will take place over the next six weeks with the series set to return to BBC One Scotland in the winter. Guest stars will be announced later.
