Danny Dyer, Brassic favourite and series creator Ryan Sampson, and Big Boys star Harriet Webb return in Series 2 of Mr. Bigstuff, which launches in July on Sky Comedy.

British Comedy Guide can now share exclusive first look images showing Sampson's Brassic co-stars Tom Hanson and Parth Thakerar appearing in guest roles:

Series 1 earned Dyer his first-ever BAFTA TV award nomination for his performance as Lee Campbell, the estranged brother of Glen (Sampson).

The new series picks up two weeks after the shock news that the brothers' dad's not actually dead, and Lee and Glen are handling it very differently. But, with chaos mounting and questions piling up, the brothers unite on a mission to track him down. Meanwhile, Kirsty's taking charge in the bedroom and the boardroom, but one badly timed kiss - and a mysterious blackmailer - threaten to bring it all crashing down. With secrets spilling and tempers flaring, it's only a matter of time before the family blows up - again.

However, the brothers aren't the only ones bringing chaos. First look images tease a range of guest stars, including:
