Star Reprises Role in Beloved BBC Sitcom After Keeping Return Under Wraps from Family

Gavin And Stacey star Laura Aikman has shocked fans by revealing that she didn’t even tell her parents about her surprise return as Sonia.

The actress made a dramatic comeback to the beloved BBC sitcom, which premiered its Christmas special on Christmas Day. However, it seems that Laura kept the news under wraps from her family for an extended period.

In an interview, Aikman admitted that she didn’t inform her parents about her character’s sudden return until shortly before the episode aired. The star explained that she wanted to keep the secret safe and avoid any spoilers or leaks.

“I knew I had to keep it a secret, so I didn’t tell my parents,” Laura said. “I think they were probably more surprised than anyone else when they saw it on Christmas Day!”

Aikman’s confession was met with disbelief by fans who are now left wondering what other extreme measures were taken to ensure the surprise wasn’t ruined.

It is understood that the production team took significant precautions to keep Laura’s return under wraps. This included limiting her involvement in promotional activities and having her film scenes separately from other cast members.

As fans continue to buzz about the dramatic twist, Aikman reflected on the experience, stating that it was an incredible opportunity for her to revisit the iconic character.

“I feel so grateful to have been given this chance to reprise the role of Sonia,” she expressed. “It’s been a dream come true.”

With speculation surrounding the future of Gavin And Stacey, fans are eagerly awaiting more information on whether another series will be produced.
