Vic Reeves has revealed that he is writing a TV show about superheroes with Bob Mortimer.

The new sitcom will be the duo's first small-screen project since 2005 sketch show Monkey Trousers.

Reeves told The Journal: "It's about superheroes who get skills through a telegraph pole that malfunctions. Then they go around helping people in their local community."

The comedian said he was also hoping to resurrect hit panel show Shooting Stars, but added: "It depends on the BBC."
