A lot has changed for Mitchell since we last checked in on him. He\u2019s grown up, found a missus and has a kid on the way, but in some ways he\u2019s still a loveable big kid himself.

Jack and I really hope that everyone will fall in love with our brilliant Class K 2.0, and we\u2019re excited for a whole new generation to discover the show for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new season will consist of six 30-minute episodes, and will land on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer in 2023.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking for something to watch in the meantime?
