Mrs Brown's Boys are heading back on the road with a series of gigs announced for Belfast and Dublin - though fans will have to wait until December 2017.
The tour follows a phenomenally busy twelve months for the show's cast and crew who enjoyed a sell out tour of Australia and New Zealand, performed their first ever live episode on TV and were named the Best British Sitcom of the Century something which Brendan O'Carroll said left him "lost for words".
The new show, Good Mourning Mrs. Brown, see Agnes planning Granddad's funeral. However the only problem is that granddad isn't dead.
The tour kicks off in March in the UK but won't reach Ireland until before Christmas. The Belfast gigs take place at the SSE Arena from 7-9 December 2017 with the Dublin dates at the 3Arena a week later from 14-16 December 2017.
Tickets are going on sale from this Friday 30th September, so now is a good time to plan a very very early Xmas present.
Meanwhile Brendan O'Carroll has hinted that he'd be interested in a tilt at the Presidency some day. Brendan, his son Danny and 10-year-old grandson Jamie appeared on Saturday night's Ray D'Arcy Show with Brendan being quizzed on whether he would follow his mother's footsteps into politics.
His mother Maureen was a TD for the Labour Party for Dublin North Central and he admitted that politics was in the blood,
"My mother always said I’d either end up Taoiseach or in prison. I’ve already been to prison so that’s done, that’s out of the way, so all that’s left is Taoiseach", he joked.
But he confessed that a bid for Áras an Uachtaráin was more likely.
“Down the road, maybe a run at the Presidency maybe. I didn’t think about it til people said it to me, ‘You should be President. You can get things done, you can get things done for charities."
