Brassic star Parth Thakerar has teased an intense season six finale.

The hit Sky One comedy, which stars Fool Me Once's Michelle Keegan, returned to screens this week for a new season of antics from Vinnie O'Neill (Joe Gilgun) and his friends.

Speaking to Radio Times, Thakerar, who plays car technician JJ Jovani on the show, revealed his "shock" after reading the script for the final episode of the season.

"When I read the end, I was like, 'Whoa, this is really intense for Brassic'," he said. "Like, really intense. I think the end is going to be a big, big shock this year, for everyone."

Despite the show being synonymous for its "cliffhanger" endings, the actor went on to share that he doesn't know what could happen in season seven – which was confirmed back in June.

"Even I don't know what's going to happen next season. It was a big one, a big one that [co-creators] Danny [Brocklehurst] and Joe [Gilgun] and everyone decided to do," he explained.

Joanna Higson, who plays Sugar Jones, added: "It's the first year that you'll finish the series going, 'Oh my God'. Like, it's a genuine, massive question mark.

"You can usually tell when a series is written and set up for the next bit. [You're like], 'Oh, they've written that, oh, that's it'. But this is really like ooo! It makes you think."

Brassic follows lead character Vinnie and his friends as they commit petty crimes in the fictional northern town of Hawley.

"They're busy getting their lives back in order, only now the landscape is changing. People are getting older and the question of growing up looms in the air. But what does 'growing up' mean to a bunch like this?" reads the official synopsis for season six.

According to Sky, Brassic is the broadcaster's biggest original comedy. Season seven will see the show reach the milestone of 50 episodes.

It also stars Damien Molony, Tom Hanson, Aaron Heffernan, Ryan Sampson, Steve Evets, Ruth Sheen, Anthony Welsh and Dominic West.

Brassic airs on Sky Max and NOW, and seasons 1-4 are now on Netflix.
