Ruth Jones has revealed the lengths she went to in a bid to keep Gavin and Stacey's return a secret.
She Said she took her nine-year-old niece on a reconnaissance trip to Barry, where The Show is partly based, to use as a Cover Story in case she was spotted by fans.

The sitcom returns for a Christmas special after a nine-year break.
Jones admitted she felt "ashamed" at using her niece but said it was necessary to keep The Show 's return a secret, ahead of filming last July.
"When I've been back to Barry sometimes there are people who are taking photos of the outside of The House and, if they See Me , they sometimes want to take photos," She Said .
Filming for the Christmas show attracted crowds of excited onlookers in Barry"If they See Me on My Own , it might start suspicions going.
"So, I took her and had some photos taken outside so I could just say 'I'm just showing my niece'. "

Jones also told her friends she was going on holiday when they asked abut her frequent trips to Los Angeles to write The Show with co-writer James Corden .
