Gavin & Stacey to be turned into a film?

Seven years after Gavin & Stacey came to an end one of the show’s stars, Larry Lamb, has sparked speculation that a spin-off film could be in the pipeline.

Larry played Mick Shipman in the hit BBC comedy, which also starred the likes of James Corden, Ruth Jones, Joanna Page, and Mathew Horne.

Speaking about the sitcom, which aired between 2007 and 2010, Larry told the MailOnline that although another series of the show is unlikely, a film could be possible.

He explained: “I don’t think anybody that was in it would ever say no to it. I think it’s highly unlikely that they’ll ever make another television series of Gavin & Stacey.

“I think it’s a distinct possibility that one day, they might make a film, that’s it.

Larry is still incredibly close to his former onscreen wife.

“That’s purely conjecture… It’s got a huge audience, so I’m sure that’s what they’ll do.”

The 69-year-old actor continued: “Gavin & Stacey was one of my career highs. The thing was, we knew it was something special. We came together. I knew Alison [Steadman, who played his on-screen wife Pam Shipman], but she was the only person I knew and the first day comes and we all gather together.

“We knew right then it was something special we all had the script and read it but as actors bring the words to life it was something special from the off.”

James has enjoyed huge success since the show aired.

James, who played Smithy in the show, went on to have unprecedented success stateside following his stint in Gavin & Stacey and is now the hugely popular host of US chat show ‘The Late Late Show’.

Speaking about the comic’s success, Larry added: “James’ success was extraordinary. He’s not an Essex boy at all. He’s a West London military boy.

“He’s extremely talented. People forget he’s been around for years long before Gavin And Stacey. He’s a really experienced performer.”
