Filming has kicked off on season three of Upper Middle Bogan.

Created, written and produced by Robyn Butler and Wayne Hope, the eight-parter will again shoot in Melbourne.

“We're so excited to unleash the wild, loud and sometimes potty-mouthed world of Upper Middle Bogan", Butler said. "But enough about Robyn Nevin – we love all the cast and can't wait to make this season”.

Series three will see the return of cast members Annie Maynard, Robyn Nevin, Michala Banas, Patrick Brammall, Glenn Robbins, Robyn Malcolm, Madeleine Jevic, Rhys Mitchell, Dougie Baldwin, Lara Robinson and Harrison Feldman.

“It took some prompting, but we’re beyond thrilled Robyn Butler and Wayne Hope agreed to give the country more of its favourite family comedy Upper Middle Bogan", ABC Head of Comedy Rick Kalowski said. "May the road from the Brights’ to the Wheelers’ go on forever.”

This season sees Bess Denyar (Annie Maynard) continuing to strive for a happy union between her adoptive upper middle family and her biological bogan family. 

"Two years have passed since Bess, an upper middle class doctor, discovered she was adopted and found her drag racing, biological parents living in the outer suburbs. With her two families, the Brights and the Wheelers, each now facing a brand new set of challenges – moving houses, illness and injuries, relationships ending and beginning – Bess struggles to manage her families living at opposing ends of the freeway, with varying levels of success. Often caught in the middle of two tribes, Bess’ dreams of life as one big happy clan seem almost impossible… but only almost".

Husband and wife Robyn Butler and Wayne Hope are the creators, writers and executive producers. Hope also directs, while the pair produce alongside Ben Grogan.

Upper Middle Bogan is a Gristmill Production in association with ABC TV and Film Victoria.
