Coogan And Brydon Are Back For A Third Series Of The Trip

Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon are reuniting for a third season of acclaimed comedy series The Trip, Sky Atlantic has announced.

From Michael Winterbottom for Revolution Films, Sky Atlantic has snapped up the third series of the gastronomic comedy.

The Trip to Spain sees fictionalised versions of Coogan and Brydon’s characters “back on their culinary quest as they head off on a road trip from the North Atlantic to the Mediterranean coast for a fresh helping of gastronomic adventures”.

Filming will begin later this year, with the pair heading to six Spanish locations, from Cantabria, to the Basque region, Aragon, Rioja, Castile-La Mancha and Andalusia.

Steve Coogan said: “Having thought long and hard about yet another sojourn into culinary distractions and middle age, I have reluctantly agreed to Eviva Espana. I have a hole in my diary, there will be free food and accommodation and Rob Brydon is surprisingly good company. I also like Michael.”

Rob Brydon said: “I’m looking forward to reuniting with Steve and Michael for The Trip to Spain.”

The news comes on the eve of series two of Alan Partridge’s Mid Morning Matters, beginning Tuesday at 10pm on Sky Atlantic.
