Linda Robson, who played Tracey Stubbs on the popular show, revealed the exciting news on Loose Women and gave more details on the upcoming special than she was supposed to
Linda, 62, revealed the cast were living in a Covid security bubble at a Hertfordshire hotel in order to film the new special
Filming ended only yesterday on the new episode which will examine how the Cockney family dealt with the lockdown
Unfortunately, Pauline Quirke who played Sharon Theodopolopodous will not be returning because according to Linda she « doesn’t want to do theater and just wants to focus on her acting academy »
The show’s writers therefore explained her absence by leaving her stranded on a « Covid-Cruise » boat in Costa Rica
It’s been three years since we last saw the birds, after Tracey reluctantly sold the house they all shared to Dorien (Lesley Joseph)
Much has changed since then and the Covid pandemic has brought them together with new people, which Tracey is not too thrilled about
Guest star Les Dennis stars as Dorien Graeme’s new flame, a cameo from Curtis Walker and Ami Metcalf as Jordan, a young Tracey’s friend who can’t wait to have a miserable Christmas
Letting out more details than she perhaps was supposed to, Linda revealed that the lockdown triggered Tracey’s OCD in a negative way
« She expects everyone to come through the door and clean their feet, but Dorien brings this guy into the house, played by Les Dennis and they don’t get along, » Linda admitted
The other Loose Women panelists accused her of having a « full mouth » giving all the premise of the extended episode
Lesley Joseph said in a statement she was « so excited to put Dorien’s high heels back on for a Christmas bird special »
« It’s been three years since viewers last saw us and Dorien is only gone to find a new man! We all need a laugh right now and I promise this special will deliver the products Lesley said
Birds of a Feather first aired on the BBC in 1989 before moving to ITV in 2014 for three years
He followed sisters Cockney Sharon and Tracey, whose lives are never the same when their husbands are convicted of armed robbery and sent to jail
At the end of 2018, she suffered depression which saw her life spiral out of control as she turned to alcohol and nearly destroyed her united family
« The doctor is trying to get me to stop the spray, but I said, ‘I don’t drink, so at least leave something for me’

« If there were even a few tea bags in the trash, I would have to empty it and put it outside »
