Frank Cottrell Boyce pens new Chitty Chitty Bang Bang books

The new books will tell the story of a family who get a little more than they bargained for after they soup up their VW camper van with an old racing car engine (I don't think Jeremy Clarkson is to feature...).
Frank's said that he has "no idea what made the Flemings think of asking me to write the sequel. I haven't asked them in case it's all a case of mistaken identity."
Frank, it's 'cos you're ace.
