One of the best actors this country has produced, Alison has had a long and varied career, but in recent years is probably best known as 鈥楶am-el-a鈥� in Gavin & Stacey.
She became interested in performance at a young age, and as a teenager, she snuck off to see the Beatles perform live at the Cavern Club. As a young actress, she appeared in seminal plays written by her former husband Mike Leigh.
From Beverly in 鈥楢bigail鈥檚 Party鈥� to Gavin鈥檚 mum Pam in 鈥楪avin & Stacey鈥�, Alison鈥檚 versatile range has made her one of the most loved British actors on stage and on screen. Now, she's appearing in the final ever episode of Gavin & Stacey, which is on 大象传媒 One on Christmas Day.
Discover how this amazing actor became such a national treasure and what songs soundtracked her journey, with her next two choices today.
