Speaking to the Sunday Telegraph’s Stella magazine, she said: "James and I did Zoom a few times. But we didn’t do any writing. In fact, I remember us both saying how uncreative we both felt. And since then we’ve not even mentioned work, just talked about the family and how we’re feeling. It does seem like a waste doesn’t it, not to have spent all those lockdown hours writing? But I just couldn’t get into the groove."

The pair previously hinted about the series' future back in April. Chatting to Metro about the incredible success of the Christmas special, which was watched by 18.5million people, they said: "It's mind-blowing that so many people watched our show – we still can't get our heads around it, what a massive compliment. We are indebted to the BBC for their incredible support but most importantly to those 18.5 million viewers for watching. We just hope one day we can let them know what Smithy said next."
