New role: Colin is up for taking over as Nidge

“You just read stuff and see what you respond to. I haven’t seen the show yet but I have the box set and I hear it’s brilliant.

“I had the wrong format of the box set. But now I have the right one, so I’ll watch it when I go back.”

Previously, Love/Hate creator Stuart Carolan revealed he wants to see Love/Hate completely remade for the American TV market.

He said: “I would guess they will reinvent it entirely. The remakes that do well are the ones that don’t stick too rigidly to the original. The first two series of the US Office faltered until they Americanised it.”
