This is why Gavin & Stacey's Larry Lamb was giving away bread in Cardiff today

Gavin & Stacey star Larry Lamb, who played Mick Shipman in the sitcom, has told fans "don't hold your breath" for a new Gavin & Stacey episode. The sitcom which shot to huge success after first airing in 2007, is written by Welsh actress and screenwriter Ruth Jones and James Corden and last aired in 2019 for a Christmas special.

Larry plays Gavin's dad Mick Shipman and was in Wales this week with TV presenter son, George promoting the latter's eco-friendly farming company, Wildfarmed, and was giving customers at Cardiff's Culverhouse Cross a taster of a new loaf of Marks & Spencer's bread. When asked if fans would see any more Gavin & Stacey anytime soon, Larry told us: “You never know…with people’s careers that are involved in that show, it would take them five years to gather everybody together so I wouldn’t hold your breath.”

He said he would appear in a new episode if there ever was one. He said: “Everybody would do it, we are all a part of something, until you kick it you are part of the team.”
