BBC Two has confirmed that W1A, the celebrated spoof of life inside the corporation, will return later this month.

The second series kicks off on April 23rd with a one-hour special which finds Head of Values Ian Fletcher (Hugh Bonneville) dealing with the demands of a visit by HRH The Prince of Wales and puzzling over which of the management team will get to shake the royal hand.

Meanwhile Head of BBC Brand Siobhan Sharpe (Jessica Hynes) and her team at Perfect Curve have been tasked with giving a makeover to the BBC coverage of Wimbledon following rumours of a bid from a rival broadcaster. Her response is a brand mashup to end all brand mashups.

And, over on the creative frontline, Entertainment Format Producer David Wilkes (Rufus Jones) is trying to come up with the next big Factual Entertainment series after Britain’s Tastiest Village failed to fly.

He’s got the title – Up Town, Down Town – he just hasn’t got a show, or a cast.

Finally, intern Will Humphries’ (Hugh Skinner) security pass won’t let him into the building: is it a technical problem or something more significant?

Thursday 23 April, 9.00pm-10.00pm, BBC TWO
