Still Up will launch on Friday 22nd September, Apple TV+ has confirmed.

The new British comedy will debut globally on the date with the first three of eight episodes. The following five editions will run weekly.

Bonded by insomnia, it sees best friends Lisa and Danny, who stay connected to each other late into the night and find their way through a world of wonderfully weird surprises as their relationship deepens.

First look images have been published today for the two lead characters, played by Antonia Thomas (Misfits) and Craig Roberts (Horrible Histories: The Movie - Rotten Romans).

Produced by Various Artists Limited, the company founded by Peep Show writers Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong, Still Up is created by Steve Burge and Natalie Walter. Burge, Walter and Bryce Hart have written the eight half-hour episodes.
