Lee Mack's multi-award-winning hit BBC One sitcom Not Going Out is the UK’s longest running British sitcom currently on air and recently joined an elite group of sitcom centenarians when the 100th episode aired during the BBC’s 2023 schedule. Since first launching in 2006, average audience numbers have increased by 55% and the show regularly draws in audiences of over 4 million. The BBC has commissioned 3 further series with series 14 due to air in 2025.

With 13 critically acclaimed series, this primetime sitcom is packed full of jokes, jibes and general misunderstandings and follows happy-go-lucky — but entirely hapless — Lee (Lee Mack).

In earlier series, Lee gets himself into all sorts of scrapes and sticky situations in his eagerness to please and impress the object of his affections, his long-suffering landlady, Lucy (Sally Bretton).

After living as flatmates for several series, Lee and Lucy finally get married. From Series 8 onwards we fast-forward seven years, re-joining Lee and Lucy living in the anarchy of a packed family house with kids Charlie and twin siblings, Benji and Molly.

Not Going Out’s second home in the UK is UKTV, where it has consistently been one of the highest rated series across all genres on Dave for over 15 years.

Cast across the series includes Hugh Dennis, Abigail Cruttenden, Tim Vine, and** Miranda Hart**.
