A BBC show featuring a Gavin & Stacey icon has confirmed when its next season will air.
Here We Go, starring Alison Steadman alongside the likes of Jim Howick and Katherine Parkinson, is told from teenager Sam’s perspective using the point of view of a handheld camera.
The series explores his dysfunctional and eccentric family’s everyday lives, with the latest season showing mum Rachel (Parkinson) begin a university course and grandma Sue (Steadman) encourage Paul’s (Howick) passion for boating.
The show was created by Tom Basden, known for his work starring in and co-creating hit comedy series Plebs.
Here We Go’s third season is due to begin on BBC One on 25 July, with the first episode airing at 9pm followed by a second at 9.30pm.

One fan said Here We Go was “one of the greatest shows ever written” in a Google review, saying it was as good as other hit shows like Gavin & Stacey and Friday Night Dinner. Broadcast said the show was a “criminally underrated gem.”
Filming for season three began last year, with the cast announcing the news by posing together in costume with a clapperboard.
A synopsis for the latest season teases what fans can expect, with Rachel beginning a new life as a therapist and Paul becoming a police constable.
Grandma Sue has moved back into the family home, while Uncle Robin and Aunt Cherry are juggling becoming new parents to baby Atlas.

Amy is still trying to figure her way in life, and it’s all being captured by Sam on camera.
Speaking ahead of the new episodes, Basden said: “I’m so thrilled to be reunited with our cast of comedy legends to bring another round of the Jessops’ epic family misfortunes and everyday adventures back to BBC One.”
The Sun previously reported that a fourth season of the show is on the way, before the third has even hit our screens.
The first season aired in 2022 following a pilot in 2020, initially called Pandemonium.
Here We Go season three begins on BBC One at 9pm on Friday, July 25
