CATHY is set to come home and appear on our TV screens again in Two Doors Down.
Doon Mackichan is confirmed to reprise her role in the BBC’s multi-award-winning sitcom.
The much-loved show is now filming its seventh series, after Cathy left her husband Colin in season six. The fan favourite character left Colin broken-hearted as she had left for a new life in Sharm El Sheikh.
The new six-episode run is set to be shown later this year.
Doon Mackichan said: "I have missed the Two Doors Down family very much so it’s a genuine delight to see Cathy bring her unique brand of community spirit back to Latimer Crescent. Beth - get a bottle open."
Co-creators Gregor Sharp and Simon Carlyle said: “Doon is one of the UK’s very best comic actors, so we’re thrilled to bits that she’s returned to pick up Cathy’s vape and rejoin the rest of our brilliant cast.”
Steven Canny, executive producer, added: “It’s a total pleasure to welcome Doon back to the family. We’ve been making Two Doors Down for a decade and couldn’t be happier that Cathy has come home again.”
The neighbours rallied round to support Colin at his lowest as well as welcome his new lover Anne Marie, played by Siobhan Redmond.
The stellar cast back this series includes Jonathan Watson as Colin, Arabella Weir as Beth, Alex Norton as Eric, Elaine C Smith as Christine, Jamie Quinn as Ian, Kieran Hodgson as Gordon, Joy McAvoy as Michelle, and Graeme ‘Grado’ Stevely as Alan.
The 2022 Christmas special attracted the show's highest audience to date with 2.8 million viewing the special across 30 days on all screens. This marked the show’s highest audience since its launch in 2013.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
