We are deeply saddened by the news of the death of our friend and colleague Simon Carlyle. Simon was a wonderful comedy talent who, amongst many other credits, co-created and wrote the multi-award-winning series Two Doors Down,” said Jon Petrie, Director of Comedy Commissioning. “His warm comic voice shone through these characters, garnering huge audience affection, and firmly establishing it as a long-lasting sitcom favourite. Our sympathies are with his family and friends at this difficult time."a b "BBC Two - Two Doors Down, Series 6, Christine 69". BBC Programmes . Retrieved 14 November 2022. All episodes were made available on BBC iPlayer on 24 November 2023, prior to their broadcast. [42] No. Cathy persistently tries to turn the solemn occasion of Colin's dad's wake into a less mournful one - with the help of some alcohol, as well as reluctant, happenchance invites Alan, Michelle and Gordon. Christine is frustrated about the non-religiosity of the affair, and is not afraid of voicing her complaints or trying to get everyone else to reminisce over Seve Ballesteros.

A routine operation turns into an overnight stay in hospital for Christine, and a populated visiting time raises a medley of discussions that all lead to Christine worrying about whether she'll survive her surgery - and Eric wondering if he'll ever get his dinner. Michelle hosts a girls' night for Beth, Cathy and Christine over at hers, with Cathy eager to take advantage of the free-flowing alcohol and Christine keen to get on with some knitting for granddaughter Madison - misunderstanding what a gathering of just women has instore. The discussion turns to the annoying foibles of their other halves', before the conversation strays into dangerous territory creating a rift between Beth and Christine, and Cathy tries to end the night on a less salubrious note by convincing the others - and introducing Christine - to watching porn. Co-creators Gregor Sharp and Simon Carlyle said: “We're excited to be spreading our wings and lowering the tone as we introduce BBC One audiences to life in Latimer Crescent.” With each additional series, the sitcom’s popularity and fan base grows —the most recent Christmas special attracted its highest audience to date with 2.8million viewing the special across 30 days on all screens; the show’s highest audience since its launch with a one-off Hogmanay special in 2013.

Beth and Eric become exhausted with the tales and travails of Christine's indecision as to how to renovate her bathroom, while an unlikely friendship develops - via alcohol - between Cathy and Michelle; will it last? Latimer Crescent residents Eric and Beth Baird are friendly, warm, and perhaps a little too polite for their own good. They're more than happy to welcome son Ian and his boyfriend into their home; but neighbours Cathy, Colin and Christine regularly make their presence felt in a far more forceful manner. Christine is a moaner, hypochondriac and freeloading single mother who's kept now-adult daughter Sophie on a short-lead of guilt trips for many years. The thoroughly pleasant Sophie finds her mother intensely embarrassing but gradually finds her own voice - and not without Beth's help. Recommission for a seventh series was confirmed by Elaine C. Smith in January, [14] but not by the BBC until February. The series will comprise six episodes (and a Christmas special), filmed in summer 2023, and broadcast on BBC One in autumn 2023. [15] [38]

The hit comedy will move from its original home on BBC Two to BBC One, once again following the residents of Latimer Crescent.

Rowat, Alison (21 January 2019). "TV Review: Two Doors Down". The Herald . Retrieved 30 December 2020. A review of the series 3 opener by the i 's Sarah Hughes noticed the "nice, dry one liners (most of them delivered by the estimable Elaine C Smith) and an expert ensemble cast, who manage to make you if not quite laugh out loud then at least gently smile in recognition," [65] shared by Chris Harvey of The Telegraph in his review, opining "Not all of the material was funny, but the acting carried it." [66] With regards to series 4, The Herald 's Alison Rowat commented that "the jokes ... are easier to see coming than before, but by this stage in the game the comedy is coming more from the characters than the situation".
