BBC One has announced that Citizen Khan will return later this month.

The Birmingham-based family sitcom’s third season begins at 8.30pm on Friday 31 October on BBC One.

Citizen Khan follows the trials and tribulations of loud-mouthed, tight-fisted, self-appointed community leader Mr Khan (Adil Ray) and his long suffering family – wife Mrs Khan (Shobu Kapoor) and daughters Shazia (Maya Sondhi) and Alia (Bhavna Limbachia)  – plus Mr Khan’s son-in-law-to-be, Amjad (Abdullah Afzal).

Watch the trailer…

In the first of six new episodes, when the family arrive back from a trip to Pakistan with Mr Khan’s mother-in-law in tow, Mr Khan is lumbered with looking after her. Then a miracle happens, she announces she wants to move into a home. When Sam (Sally Lindsay) – the head of a local care centre – arrives, Mr Khan is over the moon. That is, until he discovers the mother-in-law maybe worth a few bob. With the help of son-in-law to be Amjad, a ridiculous disguise and a spying mission, Mr Khan tries to stop Naani moving out – at all costs.
