Welsh sitcom The Tuckers has been seen filming a new series in Senghenydd.
Written by and starring actor Steve Speirs, the series first aired in January last year after a successful pilot episode in 2018. The Valleys-set comedy was commissioned for a second and third series in November last year.
It follows the fortunes of the Tucker family, a close-knit extended family of ‘loveable rogues’ who earn their living in a number of ways – many of which are on ‘the wrong side of the law’.
Speaking last year when the show was recommissioned, Mr Speirs said: “I am so thrilled that The Tuckers is coming back for two more series.
“It’s a testament to the ongoing support from BBC Wales and the amazing fans who took the show to their hearts so quickly and in big numbers. People can expect to get to know the family a lot better: Their lives, their loves, their fears. There’ll be a bit of heartache for them along the way no doubt, but mainly laughs. I think that’s what we need right now. Laughs. And Lots of them.”
Series 2 and 3 of The Tuckers will be produced in Wales by BBC Studios with filming currently taking place this summer.
