The popular Twitter feed 'Very British Problems' is to be turned into a TV series.

Channel 4 has given the greenlight for three hour long episodes of Very British Problems to be made.

The show will see "comedians and some of Britain's best-loved famous faces talking about the crushing weirdness and awkwardness of life as a Brit."

Featuring "anecdotes intercut with archive and specially-commissioned animations, the series takes a comical look at the peculiar characteristics that make up the British psyche."

Gavin & Stacey creators James Corden and Ruth Jones (pictured) are reportedly amongst the stars due to appear on screen. Vic Reeves, Jonathan Ross, Stephen Mangan and Johnny Vegas are also apparently signed up.

The 'Very British Problems' Twitter feed, which operates under the handle @soverybritish, was set up by freelance journalist Rob Temple. Since it began in 2012 it has amassed over 1 million followers and spun-off into a popular book.

Recent example tweets on the account include:

"Wondering if anyone's ever said anything other than 'great, thanks' when shown the back of their hair."

"'Thanks for helping with the washing up' - Translation: Thanks for putting all my plates and pans in the wrong place."

"Looking up and exhaling loudly, to let everyone know you fully appreciate how hot it is on the train."

Speaking last year when the idea was first optioned, Rob Temple said of the format: "Expect unnecessary apologising, an obsessive interest in weather and queuing, and lashings of awkwardness."

Chris Fouracre from production company Alaska TV says: "Our intention is to make a warm, inclusive, funny show that gently unravels the complexities and awkwardness of the British psyche, through the real lives of some of our best-loved comedians and personalities."

Very British Problems will be shown on Channel 4 later this year.
