Martin Clunes has heard nothing about a \'Men Behaving Badly\' reunion.
The \'Doc Martin\' star played lager-swilling lad Gary Strang in the comedy in six series which aired between 1992 and 1998 and although there has been a clamour for it to come back Martin insists he\'s heard nothing about a comeback for his alter ego.
During an interview on ITV show \'This Morning\' host Phillip Schofield quizzed the 57-year-old actor about rumours the sitcom is coming back, to which he answered: "It\'s the first I\'ve heard of it!"

Martin went on to joke that a revival would be hard because his co-stars Neil Morrissey, Caroline Quentin and Leslie Ash don\'t look as good as him 21 years later.
He quipped: "The others haven\'t aged as well as I have!"
Martin\'s former co-star Neil - who played Gary\'s layabout flatmate Tony Smart - has insisted that he and his castmates would be up for a \'Men Behaving Badly\' reunion if a good script was written.
Speaking on \'Lorraine\' last year, Neil, 57, said: "If there\'s a script - because in my game everything starts with a script - and if the script\'s good ... Martin and I and Leslie have all said of course we\'ll do it. So we need to get (writer) Simon Nye, nail him down and get him to write a series."
However, Caroline thinks any revival would have to move the characters\' lives on as it would be odd for the now-older characters to live together in a "grotty flat".
The 59-year-old actress - who played Gary\'s long-suffering girlfriend Caroline Quentin - said: "It was probably about 10 years ago I said, \'If it were to happen...\' But I have to admit, now I think there\'s something rather spooky about four people nearly in their 60s sharing a grotty flat together. I don\'t know where the comedy would come from."
