Fresh from the corridors of Holby City, The Young Ones star Adrian Edmondson is returning to student digs for a new ITV1 sitcom.

Edmondson who became famous while playing foul mouthed punk Vyvyan in the hit 80s sitcom, now plays a middle-aged divorcee living with his teenage kids.

The show will be named, Teenage Kicks and will show Edmundson living in the aftermath of a nasty divorce and returning to his mispent youth.

Executive Producer Phil McIntyre said: “Ade Edmondson is one of the UK’s most loved and talented comedians.

“This is a long overdue return to Young Ones madness. I am delighted to be working with Adrian and ITV on this five-star comedy mayhem.”

Paul Jackson, ITV’s director of entertainment and comedy, said: “From the moment I arrived in this job I have made it my mission to bring quality sitcom back to ITV, this project absolutely does that and I’m very excited about having Ade back on our screens.”
