Fans of hit TV show Glee can look forward to a new series, programme makers have revealed.

US network Fox said it had ordered a fourth season of the high school musical comedy.

Chris Colfer, who plays Kurt Hummel has said "they're going to do something revolutionary, that's the word we were told".

Meanwhile New Girl, starring Zooey Deschanel, will return for a second season.

The sitcom, shown in the UK on Channel 4, follows Deschanel's character Jess as she moves into a flat with three single men after a bad break-up.

Kevin Reilly, President of Fox, said: "Over the past season, New Girl has become the hottest new appointment series for young adults... and Glee has continued its success as a genre-defying, global cultural phenomenon.

"I'm really happy to bring them back to our air next season."

Glee has been a ratings winner since it was first broadcast in 2009.

The third series started in the UK on Sky1 in March.
