Channel 4’s new comedy series Back will premiere on Wednesday September 6th at 10pm, it has been announced.

Back follows Stephen, whose father, a local legend and pub landlord, has died. With his dad dead, it’s now Stephen’s chance to shine – his only achievements so far have been marriage (followed by divorce), a failed stint as a lawyer in London and a slightly disappointing pub refurb. But when the charming Andrew (Robert Webb) turns up out of the blue at his dad’s funeral, Stephen’s plans go awry. The half-hour comedy series was created by The Thick Of It and Veep scribe Simon Blackwell and stars David Mitchell and Robert Webb. That Mitchell & Webb Company is producing in association with Big Talk Productions. Kenton Allen, David Mitchell, Robert Webb & Simon Blackwell serve as executive producers.
