Inside Not Going Out stars Lee Mack and Sally Bretton’s real-life relationship – are they actually married?

Not Going Out stars Lee Mack and Sally Bretton have been married on screen for years. In real life, they're both happily married – to other people.

Created, written by and starring Lee Mack as a fictional version of himself, it holds the title of the UK’s longest-running sitcom currently on air. Sally is pretty tight-lipped about her family life, and doesn’t have social media, so hasn’t shared any pics of her husband. I find – well, everyone does – that he’s hilarious, and so sometimes you do have to dig your nails into your side a little bit harder to try to remain concentrated and serious,” she told the British Comedy Guide way back during series 5.
