If you thought you had seen the end of Dapper Laughs, then you were very much mistaken as apparently God has other plans for the controversial character.

Comedian Daniel O’Reilly “killed off” the character in November after he caused a storm by making jokes about rape and homelessness. His tour was cancelled and ITV dropped the second series of his tv dating show, On The Pull.

But in a video released on his youtube channel he resurrected the character and is set to appear at Casino Rooms, Rochester on Saturday February 28.

In the video God tells Dapper, who is relaxing in heaven with two angels, that he's sending him back to earth because he's "needed down there".

According to Dapper, the two go back years as they "used to go on the smash together" and God "loves a brass".

Dapper and O'Reilly are reunited in the video, with Dapper telling the crying comedian that "my work down here isn't finished".

Whether or not he will be toning down the character remains to be seen but O'Reilly does remark: "Well you're going to ruffle some feathers so why not turn it down a bit, there's no need to wind everyone up."

The video ends with Dapper telling O'Reilly: "Don't worry, I'll keep it calm."

In November, 25-year-old O’Reilly, from Clapham Common told BBC Newsnight’s Emily Maitlis he would no longer be performing as Dapper Laughs.

He said: “I didn’t see it as me that was doing it. I was creating this character. Not only do I not want to carry on with it, I don’t want to be seen to approve of it.

Video: Dapper Laughs is "back from the dead"

“It was a type of comedy I shouldn’t have been doing. I’m not going to do what maybe other comedians would do and stand behind it and say, ‘Do you know what, if you don’t like it switch off’.”

Dapper Laughs rose to internet infamy with his six-second Vines about pulling women - social media site Vine allows users to share six second videos.

The character had 1,600,000 Facebook fans and 575,000 followers on Vine and his single Proper Moist entered the UK Singles Chart at number 15 earlier this year.
