In a recent interview on ITV's Lorraine, beloved actor James Nesbitt dropped some exciting news for Cold Feet fans. The British comedy-drama, which launched Nesbitt's career back in 1998, may be making a comeback after its last appearance on screens over four years ago.
During the chat, Nesbitt, who played Adam Williams on the show, was asked if he thought there was a chance for Cold Feet to return. To the delight of fans, he responded, "I'd love to do that. It was such a big part of my life and it opened so many doors for me. People still talk to me about it on a daily basis. It'd be good to do more of it because I think people are still interested in what the characters are doing."
Nesbitt's fondness for the show was evident as he spoke highly of his role in the series. Cold Feet, which originally starred Nesbitt, Helen Baxendale, John Thomson, Fay Ripley, Hermione Norris, and Robert Bathurst, focused on three couples and their comical misadventures. The show aired from 1998 to 2003, with a reboot in 2016 and a final season in 2020. Despite the show's success, Baxendale's character was killed off in a car accident, leaving fans wondering if she would ever make a return.
In a recent interview, creator Mike Bullen revealed that they had actually written a part for Baxendale, but she declined the offer. "She said, 'Thanks but no thanks - it's a crap part,'" Bullen recalled. "She definitely made the right decision. It was just me being sentimental."
While Cold Feet may have been known for its comedic elements, it also tackled more serious issues, such as Ripley's character's breast cancer diagnosis. This added depth to the show and made it even more popular among fans.
After four seasons of the reboot, the show ended in 2020. However, Bullen teased that there may be more to come in the future. "We feel we've explored to our satisfaction the issues confronting the characters at this stage of their lives," he said. "We want to give them all a little time to move on, to put clear water between the stories we've told thus far and the issues they'll be exploring when they are empty nesters staring down the barrel of grandparenthood."
A press release also hinted at the show's potential return, stating that the Cold Feet team has "proved that life never stops being funny, challenging, and bittersweet." Despite the show taking a break, they look forward to "returning to warm the nation's hearts once again" when the time is right.
So, after a four-year hiatus, will Cold Feet be making a comeback? Only time will tell. But for now, fans can hold onto the hope that their favorite characters may grace their screens once again.
