    Talking Benidorm Series 4

    A fourth series of Benidorm is being written for transmission in 2011, show creator Derren Litten has confirmed.

    Writing on his Twitter page, Litten also revealed that a one-off special will air this year and a live show is being plotted for next year.

    "I'm writing a one off special for 2010 and a 4th series for 2011. Also planning a LIVE show for 2011!" he wrote.

    The ITV1 comedy started in 2007 and has since run for three series, with the most recent switching to an hour-long format.

    Katie Price and Cilla Black are to make guest appearances in Benidorm, it has been announced.

    The ITV1 show's creator and writer Derren Litten confirmed the news while speaking at Attitude magazine's Sweet 16 party, describing the pair's involvement as "really exciting".

    Litten told The Mirror: "Both women are great signings for the show and I can't wait to work with them. Cilla has basically agreed to play the oldest swinger in town and will really ham it up in a basque and suspenders, all the works.

    "The show will be going out in autumn and will be very special. I'm really proud of it."

    He added: "I've always wanted to work with Katie too, so we've been in touch with her people and offered her a role playing a completely chavvy Brit abroad, getting them out for the lads and lying by the pool. She probably won't have to do too much acting. It will be more sunbathing and bikini action."

    Benidorm's autumn outing will be a one-off special, while a fourth series will follow in 2011.

    JORDAN is set to make a cameo appearance in holiday comedy Benidorm as a chavvy Brit abroad - alongside veteran Cilla Black who's been signed up as an ageing swinger.
    The glamour girl, 31, "won't have to do much acting" according to the show's creator Derren Litten as she transforms herself into a tacky holidaymaker for the ITV1 show.


    He told a newspaper: "I've always wanted to work with Katie, so we've been in touch with her people and offered her a role playing a completely chavvy Brit abroad, getting them out for the lads and lying by the pool.

    "She probably won't have to do too much acting. It will be more sunbathing and bikini action."

    Apart from stints in her own reality TV shows for ITV2, the mum-of-three hasn't had much acting experience.

    But her hubby Alex Reid, 34, might be able to lend her a helping hand.

    His flick Killer Bitch recently held its premiere in London.


    Former Benidorm star ... Johnny Vegas
    But the cage fighter snubbed the event - saying the filmmakers used him for publicity.

    Meanwhile, Cilla, 66, is set to show off her impressive body in skimpy clobber for her amusing role.

    Derren added at Attitude magazine's Sweet 16 party: "Both women are great signings for the show and I can't wait to work with them. Cilla has basically agreed to play the oldest swinger in town and will really ham it up in a basque and suspenders, all the works."

    The show put comedian Johnny Vegas back in the public eye for his role as Geoff Maltby, but he left after the third series.

    Geoffrey Hutchings has died at the age of 71.

    The Benidorm actor passed away yesterday morning from a suspected viral infection, reports BBC News.

    The Rada-trained star's agent said: "He was fine at lunchtime on Wednesday but he had died by Thursday morning."

    Hutchings, who also appeared in EastEnders as the father of Jane and Christian Clarke, was due to return to his role as Mel Harvey in the ITV comedy's new series shortly.

    The Olivier Award winner's new sitcom Grandma's House is due to air on BBC Two this summer.

    In a statement, Tiger Aspect Productions said: "We are all incredibly sad to hear of Geoffrey's passing. He has been a major part of Tiger Aspect's comedy in recent years, and his unique talents will be hugely missed by everyone who knew and worked with him.

    "Our thoughts are with his family at this sad time."

    The Dorchester-born actor's other TV credits include Bad Girls, Foyle's War and Midsomer Murders.

    RIP Geoff

    Louie Spence has said that he did a good job with his cameo for the upcoming Benidorm Christmas special.

    However, the Pineapple Dance Studios star also admitted to Heat that he may have been eclipsed on the ITV1 show by the performance of Cilla Black.

    Spence said: "I've just come back from the Costa del Sol, where I was filming the Christmas special of Benidorm. Now, I don't like to blow my own trumpet, but I will.

    "I thought I did a bloody good job in my starring cameo role, until, surprise surprise! Who should turn up and slap me right between the thighs?"

    He added: "'Higha chuck, it's our Cilla here!'. I have to say she was truly amazing, and as an actress she keeps it real.

    "We had a lovely Champagne supper one evening, and chatted about this and that, including the lives of celebrities. She has some stories to tell, does our Cilla! Don't you just love her? I do!"
