Sheridan Smith Two Pints of Lager returns in 2025

For many viewers, Two Pints was more than a sitcom—it was a cultural staple. It depicted friendships, romance, and everyday chaos in a way that felt authentic and amusing. Sheridan recently said she’d “do it again in a heartbeat” if there’s mutual interest—”especially after seeing Gavin & Stacey, where they all came back together.”

Sheridan’s words drip with warmth and camaraderie: “Two Pints was like our uni for people who didn’t do uni.” The appeal of a joyful reunion with familiar faces energizes her—and many fans share that same eagerness.

On one hand, there’s undeniable fan enthusiasm for a revival. But challenges remain: creative logistics, scheduling conflicts, and network interest all play a role. Co-star Will Mellor mentioned that though a script (“Two Pints, Last Orders”) had been proposed, the BBC declined it. Still, both he and Sheridan, along with other original cast members, are reportedly open to reconvening in some format—be it a special, a one-off, or a reunion event.
