Gavin and Stacey stars enjoyed real alcohol on set

The ‘Gavin and Stacey’ cast enjoyed real alcohol as they shot a boozy scene for the Christmas special.
The sitcom is making a much-discussed return to TV screens over the festive period and Robert Wilfort – who plays Jason on the show – has revealed co-creator James Corden suggested the cast drink real alcohol as they filmed one particular scene.
Robert shared: "It was just one of the loveliest days I’ve had on set filming with everyone.
"Towards the end of the last day filming we may have had a real drink in that scene. Because we didn’t have any lines and we were just enjoying ourselves, we did all have a drink. It was James’s idea! It was really lovely. It wasn’t Archers and lemonade!"
Melanie Walters, 56 – who plays Gwen – also relished the scene, which shows Gavin’s family meeting Stacey’s family in Wales.
Speaking to the Sunday Mirror newspaper, Melanie recalled: "What with that and all the singing and dancing, there was no effort involved! I think that transfers to the screen."
Co-stars Mathew Horne, Joanna Page, Rob Brydon, Alison Steadman and Larry Lamb had already bonded in the pub prior to shooting the scene.
And Mat – who plays Gavin – admitted to having a "ball".
He explained: "Even Rob Brydon came out. Rob is so dull, he never socialises. Alison is always the last one standing. It was such a ball.
"And that comes across on screen. Particularly the pub."
