Lee Mack and other members of the cast and crew discuss behind-the-scenes stories as the British sitcom Not Going Out reaches its 20-year milestone. The outlet reports that a one-off documentary titled “20 Years Of Not Going Out” is used to mark the anniversary.
The coverage says the documentary includes reflections on production and personal anecdotes related to the show, featuring remarks from Lee Mack. It also references discussion of past casting and working relationships, including claims about near-marrying co-star Catherine Tate, co-star fallouts, and an “upsetting” episode involving Bobby Ball that Mack says he removed from air.
Across the two provided sources, the shared focus is the same anniversary event and documentary framing. Both accounts highlight the program’s aim of revealing lesser-known aspects of the sitcom’s development and the cast’s experiences over two decades, rather than focusing on plot specifics from recent episodes. No additional outlets or conflicting details are included in the provided material.
