Two Doors Down fans have been given a sneak peak of the new series - days before it debuts.
A full list of new episodes has been revealed by the BBC ahead of the show's highly anticipated return.
It comes as the popular Scots sitcom is set to continue following the hilarious neighbours of Latimer Cresent for the seventh series.
Now Doon Mackichan will reprise her role as Cathy in Two Doors Down after planning for a new life in Egypt and splitting with husband Colin.
According to the synopsis for the new series suggests she will crash a party for her ex's new love interest, Ann Marie.
The summary for the first two episodes reads: "Over at Colin's house, the neighbours are gathered for a surprise birthday party for Anne Marie.
"But when the doorbell goes, it's Colin who gets the big surprise.
"A new bathroom is a big commitment, and Christine can’t decide, driving Beth and Eric demented.
"Meanwhile, Cathy and Michelle bond over a boozy lunch, but will this new friendship last?”
We previously reported how the cast of Two Doors Down have remembered co-creator Simon Carlyle for his “absolute power of observation” ahead of the new series airing on BBC One.
The TV writer’s death was announced in August this year at the age of 48, shortly after filming finished on the recommissioned seventh series of Two Doors Down.
In the sitcom, Doon Mackichan plays Cathy, a big-time party girl trapped in a small-time setting, alongside Elaine C Smith in the role of life-long hypochondriac Christine O’Neil.
Smith said the cast are all still “absolutely stricken in grief” following Carlyle’s death, describing it as “so raw and so difficult”.
She said: “Simon was on set every day. Every single day. What was wonderful was the attention to detail with every character.
“He would come in and just whisper something to you which invariably made me p*** myself – not literally!
“He was the same with all of us I think – his attention to detail and just getting you to change a word or an inflection was all down to that absolute power of observation.”
Meanwhile Arabella Weir, who plays put-upon neighbour Beth Baird in the show, described Carlyle as “a real tease” after he jokingly texted her about using a trailer toilet on set.
“It was just his favourite joke”, she said.
Kieran Hodgson, who stars as Gordon on the show, said: “He was a great person to try and impress because he was sitting off the set and meant to be sitting quietly by the monitors but if someone managed some kind of delivery or performance that set him off you would just here him going (impersonates guffaw) to the great irritation of the first assistant director.
“That was just magical to feel like dad was proud of you.”
