Porridge is back with a new series - commissioned off the back of the last year’s sitcom season special - with a re-versioned title theme arranged by Paul Honey, recorded with a full jazz band in tow.

Porridge is written by original series writers, the legendary Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais. Porridge is a BBC Studios production filmed in front of a studio audience in Media City, Salford.

Porridge starts Friday 6 October, 9.30pm on BBC One.
