The show will see Bailey play John, a man who identifies as gay, and is happy in himself and with his boyfriend, played by Egerton.

However, when he meets ‘the woman of his dreams’ he begins to question his sexuality and how he labels himself.

The upcoming revival will also star Jade Anouka and Phil Daniel, and will be directed by Marianne Elliott.

Jonathan Bailey’s co-star Egerton spoke about the show on The Graham Norton Show earlier this month, comparing it to sitcom Friends.

“It’s the story of a young gay couple who have been together for a number of years,” he said, “they end up taking a break – it’s very Ross and Rachel”.

He added: “One of them sleeps with somebody else and it transpires that that person is a woman. And what happens is they all try to get together and have a chat about it.

“It’s very, very funny and actually very moving”.

When the duo were announced to be co-starring in the production, fans had a pretty thirsty reaction to the casting.

One Twitter user wrote, “the aisles are going to be like a slip and slide”, with somebody else saying “can I be in the middle”.
