The VeryBritishProblems ( @SoVeryBritish ) Twitter feed is being developed into a Channel 4 TV show, with the likes of James Corden, Ruth Jones and Jonathan Ross expected to appear.

Very British Problems will be made up of three one-hour episodes, and will feature comedians and other celebrities talking about the "crushing weirdness and awkwardness of life as a Brit".



Representing the first time a Twitter feed has moved directly to UK television, the show will include "anecdotes intercut with archive and specially-commissioned animations" and "take a comical look at the peculiar characteristics that make up the British psyche".

Stephen Mangan and Jonny Vegas are also said to be signed up, with more stars to be announced.

Alaska TV's Chris Fouracre, executive producer on Very British Problems, said: "Our intention is to make a warm, inclusive, funny show that gently unravels the complexities and awkwardness of the British psyche, through the real lives of some of our best-loved comedians and personalities."

Very British Problems will be shown on Channel 4 later this year.

"Anything happen while I was away?"

"No, not really"
