ITV reportedly gives the go-ahead to a second series of Northern teen comedy G'Wed.

ITV has reportedly given the go-ahead to a second series of teen comedy G'Wed.

The show - set and filmed in Liverpool - follows a group of young working-class teenagers dealing with issues such as grief, sex, diversity and the class divides.

Series one debuted on ITVX in February and has notched up a supposed 5 million streams to date, making it ITV's most-watched comedy since Alan Carr's Changing Ends.

Speaking about the show recently, ITV comedy head Nana Hughes said: "It's amazing to see the success of G'wed across ITVX and the linear channels.

"A true testament to the new talent involved, the hugely talented cast, excellent authentic writing by Danny Kenny and expertly executive produced by Mario Stylianides.

"I'm thrilled that G'wed has found a home at ITV and that the comedy resonated with our audience."

The new series would likely be filmed later this year and released early in 2025.
