A GAVIN and Stacey extra reveals a hilarious Dawn and Pete scene that was axed from the final edit of the Christmas Day finale.
The last ever episode aired on Christmas Day with fans glued to their screens to see the final instalment of the hit BBC comedy series.
The actor, Scott McGlynn, featured as an extra in the festive special as part of James Corden‘s character Smithy’s stag party.
Recently, Scott has shared a few behind-the-scenes secrets with fans of the hit show.
In a video post, he has now revealed details of a deleted scene between Dawn and Chinese that ended up being cut from the finale.
He explains: “Alright guys so I’ve got another little insight for you here and this happened at the wedding between Dawn and Chinese.
“Which did not make the final cut and I’m gonna tell you what happened because I was right there, right behind them and I saw it all happen.”
Scott then continues: “I watched it again and I thought where is this scene?
“It didn’t make it. But this is what happened. When Dawn and Peter arrive they go in and sit down.
“The boys then sit down just after them, then Chinese whispered into Dawn’s ear and said: ‘Did someone order a Chinese?’ and then she just went ‘F off.
“The amazing Julia Davis who plays Dawn there, she is amazing, so sweet, smiling and waving.
“I don’t know why that did not make the final cut because I thought it was so funny.
“I was behind laughing, and don’t forget they do so many takes so I was behind watching it and every time I was laughing just behind Chinese and it was so funny I wish they kept it in honestly.”
Scott then finished by saying: “But, that was a deleted scene that no one would have known about unless you were there.
“That’s a little insight on Gavin and Stacey for you. More coming soon.”
The video is captioned: “Gavin and Stacey a scene that didn’t make the final cut, by me (smithy’s stag). If you have any questions comment below.”
