THEY were the cheeky child stars from hit sitcom Outnumbered – now the Brockman kids are all grown-up, but still getting into mischief.
This week the BBC revealed the beloved show is returning after eight years for a Christmas special, with young stars Tyger Drew-Honey, Daniel Roche and Ramona Marquez posing for new photos.
The show followed the Brockman family, with Hugh Dennis as the father and Claire Skinner as the mother of the three children.
Alongside a post about the return, Ramona wrote: "WE ARE SO BACK !!!! OUTNUMBERED CHRISTMAS SPECIAL 2024 SEE YOU SOON."
The special episode will follow the chaos in the downsized home of Pete and Sue Brockman, as they grapple with the challenges of parenting kids who are now adults, with their own lives to lead.
In a moment of adversity, Sue and Pete gather all their offspring - including one grandchild - to try and celebrate a traditional family Christmas.
But fate, neighbours, hyenas and bus replacement services get in their way.
Hugh, 62, said of the show's return: “I can’t wait for the Brockmans to be back together again.

"Pete and Sue have downsized, the children are no longer children, but I’m sure family life will prove to be just as chaotic as ever.”
The new episode will have a lot to live up to, with the kids' real lives proving even more dramatic than their fictional ones.
From shocking sex-based shows to extreme tattoos, we reveal what happened next to the Brockman kids and their child co-stars.
Tattoo lover
Ramona Marquez is unrecognisable since playing brainbox Karen in the BBC show at six years old, after experimenting with different styles.
The star, now 23, has dyed her hair multiple colours and sports a series of tattoos, including a large dragon, wolf, cat and swirling design.
Since Outnumbered she’s acted in films including The King’s Speech and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, as well as voicing Gwen in Arthur Christmas.
Ramona studied Mandarin and Spanish at the University of Manchester and was regularly spotted enjoying student nights out.
In 2020 she spoke out about being bisexual in Florence Given’s book Women Don’t Owe You Pretty.
A year later she hit the headlines for selling her old bras for £4 while at university on the clothes site Depop.
Robot sex
At 11 years old, Tyger Drew-Honey was the eldest of the Outnumbered kids, playing Jake.

Since the show he's starred in BBC series Cuckoo, alongside Twilight star Taylor Lautner, the CBBC show Friday Download, and a number of other productions.
In 2016, Tyger appeared on Celebs Go Dating but insisted he “hated every minute of it” due to struggling with “bad anxiety” and joked: “My chat-up lines were kind of s***.”
Earlier that year he was targeted by a hacker group known as Celeb Busted, which allegedly obtained multiple X-rated photos of the star from his iCloud.
Tyger, whose parents are both porn stars, was reportedly mortified over the leak. A source told us: “He will be gutted these pictures have been exposed like this.”
He also fronted the BBC3 doc The Virtual Reality Virgin, where he 'had sex with a robot', admitting its mechanical sounds “were very off-putting”.
Tyger, now 28, has continued to act in theatre and on screen, appearing in shows like Grantchester, a film adaptation of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Drunk History: UK.
Holiday snap scandal
Daniel, who shot to fame aged seven as hyperactive Ben, caused a stir last year as he was snapped with what appeared to be several bags of drugs.
The curly-haired 24-year-old shared snaps from a trip to south east Asia, including one where he held packages containing mysterious green bundles.
One was emblazoned with the word ‘Kush’ – slang for high-strength cannabis - but there was no indication Daniel had taken drugs.
Since the show, Daniel has bulked up while pursuing his passion for rugby and regularly shares gym selfies that flaunt his muscular physique.
The star attended King’s College London where he joined their rugby team after playing for Wasps Rugby Academy, Middlesex Rugby and Rugby school.
Daniel appears to enjoy a night out with pals, having been spotted at the Birmingham student haunt Fab N Fresh, among others.
He's also shared multiple snaps of him partying including some where pals appeared to get into fights, pull pranks on each other and dress up in fancy dress.
Prior to his Thailand controversy, Daniel was once filmed chanting “ketamine” at Boomtown Festival.
Hollywood star
Daisy Edgar-Jones’ acting career was kickstarted after appearing as Kate in the 2016 Outnumbered Christmas Special.
She went on to star in Cold Feet for four years, Silent Witness, and a TV adaptation of War Of The Worlds, all of which helped to propel her to Hollywood stardom.
One of Daisy’s best-known roles was as Marianne Sheridan in Normal People, which earned her scores of award nominations.
The drama featured steamy sex scenes with co-star Paul Mescal, which she says she “enjoyed” due to working with an intimacy coach to set "no-go areas" and “boundaries”.
On Elizabeth Day’s How To Fail podcast, Daisy, now 26, explained: “We also agreed on touch and would say, 'This area is fine but please stay off this area,' or, 'I don’t feel comfortable with this'.”
Last year, the Where The Crawdads Sing star drew attention after donning a see-through gown for Vanity Fair’s Oscars Party.
