Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding are reuniting for a new comedy series.

The Mighty Boosh stars are working on fresh ideas, something inspired by the response Barratt received when he showed his children - with comedian Julia Davis - his Mighty Boosh work.

"They were really enjoying it and I was enjoying it. And I was going, 'Yeah, this is really good'," he told Radio Times. "I'd really like to do some more stuff with this. And there seems to be people wanting us to do that."

He continued: "We always have good chemistry when we get back together. It's like [Noel's] a brother, basically. So you may have times when you fall out but he's always there."

Barratt noted that broadcasters are interested in the ideas he's working on with Fielding and teased that it will be "something with a longer arc".

He added that despite the hiatus after the final Boosh arena tour in 2009, the two remained close friends: "We wanted to do other things on our own, so that's what we've done. But you know, we're always in contact."

Next up for Barratt will be the dark Channel 4 comedy Flowers, where he plays the depressed husband of Olivia Colman's character.
