Comedy fans, dust off your old time machines! The beloved TV sitcom 'Goodnight Sweetheart,' featuring the time-traveling escapades of Gary Sparrow, is making a comeback in novel form. Writers Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran have announced a Kickstarter campaign to fund 'Many Happy Returns,' a book that will finally reveal the unmade seventh series of the show.

Originally airing from 1993 to 1999, with a special episode in 2016, the show followed Gary Sparrow, a television repairman who stumbled upon a portal between the 1990s and 1940s, leading to a double life with two families. The novel promises to explore Gary's attempts to maintain his lies, including the small matter of claiming to have written all of The Beatles' songs!

With the series never officially getting a seventh season, fans have been left in suspense. Now, thanks to Marks and Gran's collaboration with Idiot Box Books, the story will continue. Publisher Dave Crichton hopes to bring this and other comedy titles to life through crowdfunding.

The novel's plot thickens as Gary finds himself amidst historical events and iconic figures. In 1962, he juggles the rise of The Beatles, Marilyn Monroe's influence, and brushes with the likes of Noel Coward and Ian Fleming, all while trying to keep his time-traveling secret under wraps.

If you're eager to see what happens next to Gary Sparrow and his tangled web of lies, head over to Kickstarter and support the project before the campaign ends on July 25th. With reward tiers ranging from eBooks to dinner with the authors, there's something for every fan. So, grab your flux capacitors and get ready to dive back into the world of 'Goodnight Sweetheart'!
