Channel 4 has decided on its Prince Harry for series three of royal sitcom The Windsors and has chosen Tom Durant-Pritchard.

The satirical comedy starred Richard Goulding as the famous Duke of Sussex in the first two series, but due to "conflicting commitments" has had to bow out, paving the way for Tom.

But Tom is no stranger to portraying the royals, having starred as Billy Wallace, who was briefly engaged to Princess Margaret in The Crown, the hit Netflix drama.

The third season of the show, set to air in 2020, doesn't yet have a firm release date, but we can expect it "in the new year," according to Channel 4.

And it sounds as though we're in for yet more hilarity, with the series seeing Meghan (Kathryn Drysdale) trying to change Harry's ways.

Channel 4 says of the new series: "Under the orders of his wife Meghan, Harry tries to replace his hard drinking and rugger-bugger ways with mindfulness and mint tea. Fortunately though his IQ remains unchanged: 8."

While writers Bert Tyler-Moore and George Jeffrie comment: "Tom was brilliant and fitted into our Royal Family perfectly.

"Harry's got plenty on his plate this series - one week he gets mistaken for a brain surgeon and has to perform a highly invasive brain operation.

"Does he pull it off? You'll have to tune in to find out! (But if you're too busy: no.)"

Series 2 of 'The Windsors' was back in 2017, with a 'Royal Wedding Special' episode airing in May 2018 (

That's not all we're expecting either, because Channel 4 will resume the feuding of the 'fab four' (Kate, William, Harry and Meghan's), while Carol Middleton and Camilla Parker-Bowles lock horns over who the next queen will be: Cam or Kate.

In other drama, Eugenie and Fergie worry over who will walk Beatrice down the aisle now that Andrew has withdrawn from public life. It certainly doesn't mind getting close to the bone.

We also see Princess Anne falling for David Beckham, while Pippa Middleton becomes Harry and Megs' nanny.

We can't wait to watch this.
