Peep Show is returning for a ninth and final series following a three-year hiatus.

And David Mitchell was making the most of some family time with his wife Victoria Coren and their five-month-old baby daughter Barbara on Tuesday ahead of the Channel 4 comedy's eagerly-anticipated comeback.

The 41-year-old actor was spotted pushing the little girl along in a buggy as they braved the drizzly London weather for some fresh air.

David, who was dressed down in a checked shirt and a navy velvet jacket, looked every inch the doting dad as he peered into the pushchair while Only Connect presenter Victoria, 43, strolled along beside him.

The professional poker player was wrapped up warm in a camel coat, clutching a floral umbrella in one hand in case of a change in the weather.

The couple were spending some quality time together in the run-up to Wednesday night's eagerly anticipated Peep Show return.

Viewers last saw hapless flatmates Mark Corrigan (Mitchell) and Jeremy 'Jez' Usbourne (Robert Webb) bickering over Mark's girlfriend Dobby, before she fled to New York.

The ninth series, which will be comprised of six episodes, has been confirmed as the last, with both stars citing Mark and Jez's advancing ages as a good reason to call it a day. 

Asked how he feels about the show ending, Robert revealed to the Daily Mirror he was 'gutted', adding 'we’ve done it for 12 years.'

'But it’s the right time to end it. They’re on the cusp of being middle-aged, and it’s not about middle age.'

Fans are being kept in the dark about the new series, but it has been confirmed that Olivia Coleman is returning as Mark's former flame Sophie and Matt King is back as drug-addled Super Hans.

David revealed he was mourning the end of an era, saying, 'I think it’s very sad. The set will all be chucked out'.

Peep Show returns on Channel 4 at 10pm.
