Remember how happy we were when KFC answered our prayers by bringing the Double Down to the UK last year?

We were pretty ecstatic.

In fact, KFC has since revealed that when it first launched the original Double Down, one was sold every second, with more than 2.5 million Double Downs being sold in the six weeks it was available.

Because that's right. It was a limited edition burger - why must all good things come to an end?

But if you've been missing your daily double chicken fix then you can rejoice, because, for a limited time only, KFC's Double Down back in all its glory, only this time spicier.

People, say hello to the Zinger Double Down.

Since the revealing of its release, KFC has said: "We were inundated with thousands of tweets demanding the Double Down return to the UK, so there was only one thing we could do.

"Ever since we first launched Double Down in the UK, our fans have been calling out for a Zinger edition. We listened.

"The fiery heat of our Zinger is iconic and one of our best-loved flavours, so we totally agreed it was a no brainer to launch this as a Double Down.

"We've stayed pretty tight-lipped on our plans to go Zinger as we wanted to take our biggest fans by surprise... hopefully our insurers enjoyed the flaming counter surprise too!"

In case you're not a fan of KFC and don't understand the hype, let us explain to you what the wondrous Double Down is.

A bun-less burger - because who's got time for bread when there'e chicken to be eaten? - made up of crispy bacon, covered in melted cheese and slathered with tangy sauce and mayo, between two finger-lickin' good crispy chicken fillets.

Magical, we know.

And the public are excited, with some fans travelling to London's Tottenham Court Road store for a sneak preview celebration ahead of its release on the 23 July.

The Zinger Double Down will only be available from 12 August, so you're going to act fast.

Alas, another limited edition. But still, that's potentially 21 days of Double Down delight to be had.

Winner winner, chicken dinner.
