Zoe Wanamaker in 'My Family'

Sitcom My Family will return to BBC One for at least two more series and a Christmas special.

The deal includes 20 episodes of the show, which stars Robert Lindsay and Zoe Wanamaker.

Executive producer Don Taffner, of DLT Entertainment, said: "For the BBC to commission so many episodes is proof of their ongoing commitment to this consistently top-rated comedy."

The recommission follows consistently strong ratings for My Family, including a recent season peak of 7.2m viewers.
