The trailer shows Will and Grace returning to the set of the popular comedy as they left it 10 years ago.
While Will is excited at the prospect of a new series, Grace is understandably more hesitant saying, "what if we've lost it, what if something fundamental has changed?".

The brand new series will be starting on Friday 5th January 2018 and will be the first of a 16 episode first season. It has also been confirmed that there will be a 13 episode second season, fantastic news for fans of the series which ran until 2006.
The UK premiere of Will & Grace will be on Channel 5 at 10pm on Friday 5th January 2018. Make sure you add it to your calendar now, because January will be a busy month on TV with the new series of Celebrity Big Brother also on Channel 5.
Details of the new series were released yesterday, when it was announced there would be a big twist year. All of this year's starting contestants would be female to celebrate to mark 100 years since women won the right to vote for the very first time.
