US TV channel to remake 'Dallas'

The 1980s US soap 'Dallas' is to be resurrected 20 years after the original ended and about 30 years after its heyday by US network TNT.

In the show's remake many of the actors from the first time around - including Larry Hagman as JR Ewing and Patrick Duffy as his brother Bobby - are back.

Linda Gray, who played shoulder-padded Sue Ellen, will appear too.
