Happy Valley fans will be excited to hear that the much-anticipated season 3 of the show could be on its way soon.
After the end of the popular second series of the crime drama in 2016, writer Sally Wainwright revealed there were no immediate plans to bring it back.
But last year, it was revealed a third serving of the show would be on its way.
The series was delayed because Sally wants young Rhys Connah – who plays Catherine Cawood’s (Sarah Lancashire’s) grandson – to grow up so he is a teenager.
But now actress Siobhan Finneran who plays Clare has teased during an appearance on This Morning yesterday that the next series is finally on its way soon.
Siobhan told hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield that Rhys had definitely grown up and suggested now was the time for things to get moving.

Holly said to her: “We’ve been teased, Sally Wainwright says there will be a third series, we’re waiting for Ryan who’s Catherine’s grandson to grow up a bit because that’s important for the storyline.
“How much longer have we got to wait? Do you even know, is anything on a heavy pencil?”
Siobhan said: “I’m not sure, I don’t know if we’re going to do it again. We’re just waiting for Sally to write it, fingers crossed.

“Rhys, who plays Ryan, sent me a little message at Christmas and he looks like a fully grown man now, so he is growing up.”
Phillip and Holly then quizzed if this meant it was “time now”, to which she replied: “Yeah.”
Sally discussed the huge gap between the series with Radio Times last year.
“Basically we’re kind of waiting for the little boy to grow up, so he’s more of a teenager than a child.
“That’s always been the plan. We never intended to do it again straight away, so it kind of hopefully is going to work out nicely time-wise.”
