Gavin & Stacey star Alison Steadman has spoken about the forthcoming final ever episode of the BBC sitcom.News of the upcoming finale was first reported in February this year, with co-writers James Corden and Ruth Jones later confirming the last episode in May. “See you on Christmas Day,” they wrote at the time.The cast officially started filming the finale in September before it was finally wrapped up last week.Speaking to The Guardian, Steadman, who plays Gavin’s (Mathew Horne) mother Pam, said: “We’ve just been filming the last-ever Gavin & Stacey Christmas special, and it’s honestly been the best fun ever.”She continued: “I feel really proud.
I mean, the last Christmas special got a huge audience. People stop me now in the street all the time: ‘Can’t wait. Can’t wait for Christmas Day!’ I hope we don’t let them down!”Speaking at the Cheltenham Literature Festival (via BBC News), Steadman also said it was difficult keeping the final scenes of the show under wraps because “the paparazzi were everywhere”.“They [the directors] thought it was a nightmare, and there were people at the end of the street,” she added.“Ruth [Jones] and James [Corden] were saying to everyone ‘we don’t want to spoil it for you.
We want Christmas Day to be a surprise’.“And once you know a bit of secret or a story, then you’re going to spoil it. They want it to be a surprise, and that is what I want too.”Steadman also spoke about the last day of filming on set.She added: “When we finished filming the other day, I got this lovely card from Mat Horne, and he just said, ‘I’m so, so proud to think I’ve had you as my mum in the series’.
