Larry Lamb proposes Gavin & Stacey spin-off film to BBC

Larry Lamb, known for his role as Mick Shipman in the beloved series Gavin & Stacey, is advocating for a cinematic spin-off of the show. Following the record-breaking Christmas Day finale, which attracted 12.3 million viewers, Lamb met with BBC Director-general Tim Davie to propose a film adaptation, suggesting it could 'double the BBC's money' by attracting up to 35 million viewers. He shared his thoughts on the reaction he received from Davie, indicating the possibility of interest without revealing much. Lamb expressed his belief that the show still has potential for more content, stating, 'Never say never,' and noting how he has grown into his character over the years. Fans of the series have been eager for additional content since the finale, which aired last Christmas. Lamb's enthusiasm highlights the ongoing popularity of the series and its potential for revival in a new format.
