Channel 4 has set a premiere date for Stath Lets Flats season three, and it’s arriving sooner than expected.
The BAFTA TV-winning letting agency comedy will begin in October, and will pick up events following the season two cliffhanger, with the family agency in jeopardy.
The series producer previously posted an image of the cast table-read on Twitter in early June, revealing that season three would be “coming later this year. All the flats all the jokes all the time”.
Channel 4 renewed the comedy for a third season in the autumn of 2020, following a BAFTA TV winning streak.
The announcement prompted a statement from none other than lead character Stath (played by Jamie Demetriou), who thanked “Channel For”.
Stath said: “Thank you so truly for this energetically and development news. I never seen something on Channel For [4] in my life, but someone told me they done a programme about people being embarrassed about their body. Which is a shame. I’m proud of my body, even though my eyebrow is a bit too wide and I’m panickin’ it’s joinin’ to my head hair.”[sic]
Season two of the sitcom won three BAFTA TV Awards: Best Male Actor in a comedy, for lead star Jamie Demetriou; Best Writer of a Comedy, also for Demetriou; and the programme itself won the award for Best Scripted Comedy.
