Filming is underway on the third series of Mandy, written by, directed by and starring Diane Morgan. 
 

The short-form series is from BBC Studios Comedy Productions and Witchcraft Industries and is produced by Kenny Tanner; Ben Caudell exec produces. 
 

The third run comprises 6 x 15’ episodes, and sees Mandy on another series of micro-aggressive adventures as she embarks on more short-lived stints in ill-fitting, zero-hour-contract jobs. 
 

Michelle Greenidge returns as her friend Lola with other returning cast including Tom Basden, Mark Silcox, Roger Sloman, Alistair Green, Michael Spicer, Jackie Clune and Yuriko Kotani. 
 

Morgan said: “All the quotes used in TV Press releases like this are written by Chat GPT now. This one certainly is. When you’re writing and directing and performing in something you can’t waste time thinking of some pointless quote just to show off. 
 

“No one reads beyond the first words anyway; because they just repetitively say how thrilled and excited everyone is. No one’s reading this now, are they? Only a fool would do that. Come on, there must be a book you could be reading now instead of this nonsense.”
 

Josh Cole, head of comedy at BBC Studios added: “We are thrilled and excited to be returning to Mandy with the peerless Diane Morgan.”
