Aimee Lou Wood and David Morrissey will be back

Aimee Lou Wood's comedy Daddy Issues is returning for a third series.

Co-star Sarah Hadland – who plays the boss of Wood’s character Gemma in the BBC Three series – revealed that filming will resume in Stockport later this year.

Speaking on Saturday Kitchen she said she would return to the sitcom after she finishes her West End run of the comedy The Truth alongside Ardal O'Hanlon, Stephen Mangan and Janie Dee.

She said: ‘I’ve got Daddy Issues coming up. We're filming series three after we finish the play, kind of autumn time with lovely Aimee Lou Wood and David Morrissey and David Fynn, yes. Up north… up in Stockport. It’s a great show.’

The series was created by former stand-up Danielle Ward, who directs with The Inbetweeners' Damon Beesley.

Daddy Issues' second series ended with Malcolm – Morrissey – committing to stay with his daughter Gemma and his new granddaughter Sadie.

Wood's other BBC Three comedy, Film Club, in which she co-stars with Nabhaan Rizwan, will not return for a second series, with American entertainment website Deadline reporting: ‘Wood is said to be keen to prioritise other writing while the BBC was relaxed about moving on from the series.’

Hadland’s comments on Saturday Kitchen were first reported by the British Comedy Guide. The BBC are yet to formally announce Daddy Issues’ recommission.
