Dave says: "In this series, Lucy's career is turbo-charged by her BAFTA nomination and she's getting offered shows from the very big to the frankly bizarre. Jon is fine with Lucy's success, he's not competitive at all, and he knows when he's beaten. So, while Lucy's busy on Taskmaster, Bake Off and Celebrity Chinese Whispers, Jon is plotting his escape from telly, with one last, lucrative job hosting a new daytime quiz show. Meanwhile, at home, a global superstar and her partner move in next door, making it harder than ever to keep up with the neighbours. Lucy's turning 40 and she'd really like Jon to go with her to Glastonbury to celebrate. He'll never agree to that. But will they both agree that five series of Meet The Richardsons is more than enough?"

Series 5 will air on Dave from April 2024. All previous series are available on UKTV Play.
