It's still not been officially announced, but signs are good: http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/news/cult/2003/11/19/8094.shtml
I don't know about that - The Nine Network here (who made the first 4 seasons and is contracted to make the mini-series) has announced that they are in pre-production, with set construction well under way.
(They also started screening it again the same week, starting as Season 3, but still at odd late night time slots, just as they did initially)
Cheers Russell C.
