Will Mellor and Ralf Little are teaming up for a brand new series, facing a range of challenges in each episode of Will And Ralf Should Know Better as they navigate life in their forties.

The show, set to broadcast on the newly rebranded U+Dave channel, will feature the duo exploring the trials of living off-grid without toilet paper, embracing spirituality, and confronting their fears of ageing. An insider revealed to The Sun: "A lot has changed for Will and Ralf since Two Pints - they were 25 and 21 when they met."

They continued: "But they have remained great friends throughout and that really shines through in the intimate, frank conversations they have along the way."

The source also referred to their joint podcast, saying: "They've got their joint podcast, but it will be nostalgic for 'Two Pints' fans to see them on telly", reports Wales Online.

The programme is also anticipated to reintroduce the actors to viewers who may now associate Ralf more with his role as DI Neville Parker in Death in Paradise, and Will from his appearances on Strictly and as Harvey Gaskell in Corrie.

Ralf, 44, shared his enthusiasm about reuniting with his old friend, stating: "I am thrilled to be working with Will again as it's always so much fun. This time we get to explore how we should be living in the modern world while educating ourselves, and having a laugh at the same time."

Meanwhile, Will Mellor, aged 48, is optimistic about the potential revelations from their new venture, remarking: "I've wanted to do a series like this for years. Going on a journey with Ralf to open our minds and push our limits... what could possibly go wrong?

"We're both in our forties and probably a bit set in our ways, so now is the perfect time to see how we could be doing life better. Hopefully, we'll come out of it better equipped for the modern world and, ideally, still in one piece."

Last year, Mellor expressed his eagerness to revive Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Crisps in an interview with the Daily Mail: "I said I would do another one, just to say thank you to the people who supported it because it ran for ten years.

"Everyone still talks to me every day in the street about it. Every day, someone will mention it. Their favourite show, growing up and, you know, had a cult following, and it'd be nice to do another series just to see where they are now," the Strictly sensation divulged.
