The show first returned with a one-off Christmas special in 2013 and its success has led to a series being commissioned by the BBC each year since.

The new run stars Sir David as Granville who has inherited the shop from his miserly Uncle Arkwright.

He now runs it with his son Leroy (James Baxter) and the show also stars Stephanie Cole, Maggie Ollerenshaw, Brigit Forsyth, Tim Healy, Johnny Vegas, Kulvinder Ghir, Sally Lindsay, Geoffrey Whitehead and Katie Redford.
