Meera Syal has revealed that the stars of Goodness Gracious Me are discussing a potential revival of the pioneering sketch show.
The comedy, which explored British-Asian culture and challenged racial stereotypes, was a huge hit for the BBC, running for three series on BBC Two between 1998 and 2001.
"We'd all love to bring it back in some form," Syal told Good Morning Britain today. "I think it's finding the right thing actually, when it's something people have fond memories of and love so much and want to see again, which is amazing.
"I think you want to make sure you bring it back in the right way and in the best way you can, so there are talks going on that's all I can say right now. Right now the talks might come to nothing because as I say we don't know what the new normal is the other side [of coronavirus]. There was certainly interest before all this happened, so when things start up again I'm sure the talks will start up again.
"There's certainly appetite from the public and willingness from us, we just want to find the right thing."
All three series of the show are available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
