Laura made her debut in the eagerly-anticipated Christmas special episode, which saw the originals return to screens after a decade off air.  

She played James Corden's character Smithy's divisive girlfriend, who riles the group when she appears to henpeck the usually raucous character. 

Russell, who starred on four episodes of the show between 2007 and 2009, did not appear in the special, however he got a name check when Smithy revealed that his character Budgie is now a grandfather. 

Despite his lack of on-screen presence, one trickster attempted to convince fans that the clip was actually a teaser for an unconfirmed fourth series.

A tickled fan shared the image on Thursday with the caption: 'Sonia !! Have you been snogging Budgie? Release this as a spoiler still from series 4 and Twitter will break'.

This caused some confusion, as one fan responded: 'Amazing which episode was this?', before Laura responded: 'It’s from a different show called The Job Lot'. 

Russell played Karl in the show while Laura starred as Natalie, with the duo being the love story in the job centre-based comedy.
