Twenty Twenty Six is a British television comedy series written and directed by John Morton. The series is a spoof mockumentary following the organisation of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. It is set to premiere on BBC Two on 8 April 2026.
The series is a follow-up to Twenty Twelve, which followed the 2012 Summer Olympics, and W1A, which satirised the management of the BBC. It sees the reintroduction of Hugh Bonneville and Hugh Skinner as their Twenty Twelve and W1A characters, alongside a new cast, with David Tennant's role as narrator continuing from the earlier series.
Following on from his role at the BBC, Director of Integrity Ian Fletcher leads the team behind an international football tournament.
Initially announced in June 2025, Twenty Twenty Six is a follow-up to Morton's previous series Twenty Twelve and W1A, both starring Bonneville and the latter additionally starring Skinner. The series was filmed in London in the summer of 2025, with a school in Wembley transformed into a Miami arts centre. The nearby North Studios was also used for sets, with no filming taking place in the United States except drone footage.
Clarkson's Farm production company Expectation produces the six-episode series, taking over from the producer of Twenty Twelve and W1A, BBC Studios, who will still handle global sales. Despite being heavily influenced by the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the tournament name and all mentions of FIFA are bleeped out for comedic effect, due to "an overabundance of caution on the production's part".
