TV programme The Cockfields, which was set on the Isle of Wight, is being shown on BBC2 tonight.

The Cockfields stars Joe Wilkinson (8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown), Diane Morgan (Motherland) and Sue Johnston (The Royle Family), together with Nigel Havers and the late Bobby Ball.

It was previously shown on the channel Gold, in 2019.

Yellow Door Productions Tweeted recently: "So pleased BBC2 are showing the first series of The Cockfields on Wednesday March 22 at 10pm, written by David Earl and Joe Wilkinson starring our late dear friend Bobby Ball.

"A slice of Isle of Wight gorgeousness and summer sun awaits."

Joe revealed that the County Press has made the show on more than one occasion, with Bobby Ball reading the paper in one close up, and a rolled-up copy used to chase a bird in another scene.
