A third series of Count Arthur Strong has been commissioned by the BBC. Following the sucess of the first series on BBC2, the second series moved to BBC1 this year with the Count getting into more confusion and slapstick scrapes.
Posting the news on Twitter, Count Arthur said in his typically eccentric style: "It's my very great delight to announce that BBBC1 in their finite wisden have commissioned a 3rd series of CountArthur Strong. End of."
Series three will be filmed later this year for transmission in 2016.
