Meanwhile, David has been working on the third and final series of Broadchurch.

The original cast will be joined by Sir Lenny Henry and Roy Hudd for the latest eight-part installment of the series.

In their latest outing the daring duo will take on a brand new case, following a serious sexual assault.

Producers have been researching the ins and outs of the plot for a year, and have worked closely with local organisations and police to truly get to grips with the emotional strain a crime like the one featured has on the victims, friends and family involved.

Writer of the new series Chris Chinball, said: 'We have one last story to tell, featuring both familiar faces and new characters.

'I hope it's a compelling and emotional farewell to a world and show that means so much to me.'
