I really could not be happier. Well I could, if say, I’d taught crows how to speak and they, in turn, taught me how to fly.”
Nerys Evans, Deputy Head of Comedy, Channel 4, added: āWeāre thrilled weāre going to be spending more Friday Nights with the Goodmans, and not forgetting Jim and Wilson too. Robertsās created such a brilliantly warm and funny world, and the cast are just sublime, we canāt wait to join them for more Friday Night Dinners next yearā.
