Chris Addison has revealed that there are plans to film a new series of The Thick Of It next spring.

Addison, who plays Ollie in the comedy, told Digital Spy that writer Armando Iannucci has been busy working on his new HBO show Veep.

However, he explained that the current plan is to film more episodes of The Thick of It in April or May.

Addison admitted that he has no idea what will happen in the new series of The Thick Of It but joked that he is "very strongly advocating a musical episode".

"And a bit less politics," he quipped. "Maybe we could run a toy shop this time or something, just to change it up a bit.

"That would be really brilliant, if suddenly The Thick of It was back and it was just Malcolm running a department store."

Addison also revealed that he is enjoying his work on Skins and described his character Professor Blood as a "great big cartoon" and a "supercilious, mean-spirited b**tard".

Chris Addison's stand-up comedy DVD Chris Addison Live is out on Monday.
