But there's been a few changes: Esther Smith is stepping in to replace The Musketeers and Inbetweeners 2 actress Tamla Kari, while Cuckoo himself - the great Andy Samberg - is no more, having met his end off-screen between series. Meet the new Cuckoo - the original's son, played by none other than Twilight star Taylor Lautner. Yes, you read that right - Taylor Lautner.
Digital Spy spoke with Outnumbered veteran Tyger Drew-Honey - who returns as moody teen Dylan - to talk losing the original Cuckoo and working with his surprise replacement.

"We knew we had a second series commissioned - we actually had it commissioned before we'd finished filming the first. I was in touch with my agent, trying to find out dates, and she told me that they were really struggling to find availability for Andy, 'cos he's doing his new show Brooklyn Nine-Nine. "So we were waiting for ages to see whether Andy was gonna have time. Then in the end, I think they just basically bit the bullet and thought, 'No, we can't do it with Andy, we need to find someone else'.
"I'm not angry at all - as an actor, I understand that you can't always do everything you want to do. I'm sure Andy would've loved to do it and he has actually done some voiceovers for us - so we'll hear his voice in the second series. "But I think now we've got Taylor, it's a real development - if we still had Andy, I don't know if we would've had such good storylines. I'm actually happy with the way it's gone.
