Matt Lucas has announced that he's joining forces once again with Doctor Who's Steven Moffat for a new TV series.

The Nardole actor shared the news on Twitter when revealing that the Chichester Festival production of Me and My Girl – in which he starred – is making the move to the West End.

"Congratulations to all involved in #MeAndMyGirl for securing a London transfer," Lucas wrote.

Congratulations to all involved in #MeAndMyGirl for securing a London transfer! I had a blast playing Bill down in Chichester for the summer. I’m now busy developing a new TV show with the great Steven Moffat but I wish the West End cast every success! — MATT LUCAS (@RealMattLucas) September 3, 2018

Sadly for fans of both Moffat and Lucas, that's all the information we have currently – but we'll be sure to let you know what's what when we do.

Moffat is currently working with Mark Gatiss on a new TV adaptation of Bram Stoker's classic Dracula, and he previously said that the new version of the vampire story will be reinvented "in a Sherlock-y way".

"But not in exactly the same way," he added. "We're not modernising it or anything, but we are doing a version of Dracula."

Moffat confirmed that the series will consist of three episodes of 90 minutes each, but you shouldn't expect it for quite a while yet – we're talking '2020 or beyond' quite a while.
