David Duchovny 'likely' to return for X-Files finale

The executive producer of The X-Files says it is pretty likely that David Duchovny will return for the show's final episode.

Frank Spotnitz says Duchovny has agreed to write and direct an episode before the final one.

The show is to finish at the end of its current series in America.

Spotnitz said Burt Reynolds is to appear in an episode to be shown in the US in April.
