Yahoo News Outnumbered stars tease likelihood of full revival season
The cast of Outnumbered has teased the likelihood of the show getting a full-on revival.
The BBC announced in May that it was bringing back the Brockman family for a 2024 Christmas special, with Tyger Drew-Honey, Daniel Roche and Ramona Marquez returning as the now-grown children of Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner.
The cast have yet to film the special episode, but they told Radio Times that while there's "no word" on more episodes yet, they're hopeful of a full revival of Outnumbered.
"I mean, yeah, it's entirely within the realms of possibility," former Cuckoo star Tyger said. "There's no reason why we shouldn't… Never say never."
His co-star Ramona added: "It'd just be a slightly different kind of show… But those things do happen, don't they? They come back after a while, so we would be up for it."

As for the Christmas special, the BBC recently shared a synopsis that teases the Brockmans coming back together during a challenging time for the family.
The teaser reads as follows: "In a moment of adversity, Sue and Pete gather all their offspring (including one grandchild) to try and celebrate a traditional family Christmas.
"But fate, neighbours, hyenas and bus replacement services get in their way."

Hugh Dennis also teased: "Pete and Sue have downsized, the children are no longer children, but I’m sure family life will prove to be just as chaotic as ever."
The 40-minute episode is being written and directed by Outnumbered co-creators Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin. Outnumbered originally aired for five seasons, plus a Boxing Day special that was billed as the last-ever episode in 2016.
Outnumbered's Christmas special will air later this year on BBC One and the BBC iPlayer.
