Alison Steadman and Larry Lamb are coming together for a 'Gavin and Stacey' reunion.

The two actors - who played Gavin's parents Pam and Mick Shipman in the classic BBC sitcom - are reuniting for an upcoming documentary three part documentary series 'Alison and Larry: Bilericay to Barry' for digital channel Gold.

The show will see the pair visit locations from Wales to Essex that featured on the show.

Alison said in a statement: "I can't wait to take this trip down memory lane to explore Pam and Mick's neck of the woods as well as so many other locations precious to me.

"And who better to do it with than Larry? I'm so excited to be reunited."

Larry himself added: "I am really looking forward to reminiscing with Alison while taking the trip from Billericay to Barry, it was such a huge part in the plot of 'Gavin and Stacey'.

"This journey holds a special place in my heart and I hope the fans are pleased with it."

The duo will also be joined by some special surprise guests as some of their co-stars join in the fun.

A spokeswoman for the show - which is set to air later this year - commented: "Alison and Larry will make the 210-mile journey while stopping off at beauty spots in the glorious countryside.

"They also visit locations that have an intimate connection to them and 'Gavin and Stacey.' "

The sitcom originally ran for three series between 2007 and 2010 before returning for a Christmas special in 2019.

Larry previously admitted he hoped the show would be back again in the future.

Speaking in 2021, he said: "I think it would be pretty short-sighted if there wasn't.

"I'd be happy to do more. Everybody that's involved with it sees it as a team event. If they're doing more, you're part of it."
