How bloody great was the Love Actually sequel for Comic Relief? We may or may not have been watching it on repeat in the background while we (pretend to) get on with work. Soz, not soz.

Most of our favourite characters returned for Red Nose Actually and we though our hearts would actually burst when we saw how all their story lines turned out.

Little Sam is 26. And engaged. We feel OLD.

Sidenote: We don't think we'll EVER get the image of Hugh Grant shaking his booty to Drake's Hotline Bling out of our heads. EVER.

Now it turns out we’re going to be getting even more Red Nose Actually than we first thought, and another OG Love Actually star has signed up for a part.

Laura Linney – who played Sarah, a character struggling to look after her mentally ill brother and desperately in love for her co-worker Karl - was missing from the clip that aired on Friday, but has now confirmed she's filming scenes for the sequel.

But, wait. Comic Relief's already been and gone, right? How come there's MORE Red Nose Actually (not that we're complaining)?

Well, Richard Curtis is working on an alternate cut of the Love Actually revival for the American version of Red Nose Day set to air on NBC on 25 May.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Laura revealed: "I'd done something for the last Red Nose Day, so I'd kept in touch with Richard Curtis. And then he sent me an email explaining this short film reunion.

"I said yes, obviously. How could I say no? And right away we were figuring out our schedules.

"I have no idea what I'm doing yet. Not a clue."

We're sure it's going to be FAB.
