Seconds series commissioned

BBC Three comedy Siblings is to return for a second series, the BBC has announced.

Six new episodes will be filmed in London early next year to air later in 2015.

The comedy stars Charlotte Ritchie, from Fresh Meat, and Tom Stourton, from the Totally Tom double act, as twentysomethings Hannah and Dan, 'the world's worst brother and sister'.

The news comes as series one comes to an end tomorrow night.

Executive producer Simon Wilson said: 'We've been delighted by how much audiences have enjoyed Dan and Hannah's horrendous and hilarious antics - as played so brilliantly by Tom and Charlotte. We're thrilled the BBC are giving us another chance to unleash the calamitous duo on a whole new set of victims."

BBC comedy commissioner Chris Sussman added: 'Siblings is horrible and brilliant at the same time. Each episode is like a mini-movie, with Dan and Hannah finding new and terrible ways to ruin other people's lives. I can't wait to see what mischief the writers cook up for series two.'
