Lilley to bloom again

Angry Boys' Chris plans new mockumentary

Angry Boys creator Chris Lilley is working on another mockumentary – which he hopes to have on screens next year.

The Australian character comedian, who also created Summer Heights High and We Can Be Heroes said his next show would be along similar lines.

But he refused to be drawn on details about the characters or the situation of the newshow.

‘I'm well under way with a new project and I'm keeping it a bit of a secret and under wraps for now,’ he told Digital Spy. ‘It's along the same lines as my other shows.

‘It's a mockumentary style and I'll play the characters. It's looking really cool. That should be on the BBC next year hopefully. I don't control when they put it on, but that's when we want it to happen.

‘I want to keep as much of the show as possible a secret, but if you've loved my last three shows, this is part four. It's going to be really good.’

Angry Boys, which aired last year, was a co-production between Australia’s ABC and America’s HBO and pre-sold to BBC Three in the UK, so covering the cost of the show.
