Channel 5 has announced that OAPs Behaving Badly will return for a second series in 2015.
The documentary attracted 2.2 million viewers when it aired in July, and will now return for six hour-long episodes next year.
Channel 5 promised that OAPs Behaving Badly will follow "more warmhearted, but excessive elderly characters living it large as they blow their pensions, winter fuel allowance and children's inheritance on cheap booze, late nights and karaoke – while others ride superbikes decked out in leather and studs".
The new series will also revisit characters from the original documentary such as 74-year-old Leapy Lee and his younger Scandinavian girlfriend, Betina.
"OAPs Behaving Badly was a huge success for Channel 5 this summer," said Guy Davies, commissioning editor of factual at Channel 5. "I'm really looking forward to seeing what other antics these larger than life seniors have in store for us in this full series commission."
