The press release reveals: "After eight glorious years of high ratings and winning awards, things begin to go wrong for Sinclair when the programme begins to lose viewers and tensions break out within the production team."

The six-episode series is written by Davis and has been commissioned by Channel 4's head of comedy Phil Clarke.

Davis is famous for her work on BBC Three's Nighty Night, Sky Atlantic's award-winning Hunderby and Gavin & Stacey.

The series will be directed by How Not to Live Your Life's Dan Clark.
