ANOTHER charity screening of new episodes of Peter Kay's hit TV show Car Share has been announced.

The event, featuring two never before-seen episodes — Car Share: Unscripted and the highly anticipated series finale — will take place at Blackpool Opera House on Friday, April 6.

It comes after tickets to what has intended as a special one-off event on April 7 sold out in minutes of being released.

The comedian first announced the screening on March 29 in his first Twitter post after cancelling his first live tour in eight years in December, due to "unforeseen family circumstances".

But, to fans' delight, Kay has now announced a further screening.

A message on his official Twitter account said: "Due to demand a further Car Share showing will take place on Friday 6th April."

The second series of the BBC show ended on an emotional cliffhanger last year as John (Kay) failed to reciprocate the advances of his car share colleague Kayleigh (Sian Gibson).

And fans of the programme were dismayed when Kay announced that he had no plans to pen a further series.

But the comic later announced two new special episodes, which will be screened at the Opera House, alongside two others from the hit series.

The screening will raise money for The Lily Foundation, a charity that helps to improve the lives of children with Mitochondrial Disease.

Ticket-selling website Ticketmaster said the new date was due to "overwhelming demand."
