Daisy May Cooper has teased the sensational return of her BAFTA-winning series This Country with a VERY blunt admission about why she'd like to bring it back. 

The actress, who starred in the hit BBC series as Kerry Mucklowe alongside her brother Charlie as her on-screen cousin Kurtan, took to Ferne Cotton's podcast Happy Place to discuss a potential reboot. 

The mockumentary series, which first hit screens in 2017, followed the lives of fictional cousins Kerry and Kurtan Mucklowe in a small Cotswolds village.

After its release, the series went on to win a number of awards including three BAFTAs, for Best Scripted Comedy, Best Female Comedy Performance and Best Male Comedy Performance. 

It continued for three series until it came to an end in 2020 - but Daisy May and brother Charlie have long toyed with the idea of bringing it back. 

When quizzed by Ferne, 44, as to whether the brother-sister duo would want to write more episodes anytime soon, Daisy, 39, was quick to back the idea.

Not just because she wanted to see the show's iconic characters revived on screen, but because it could spell a big pay cheque, joking she'd be happy to reboot if if she 'got paid enough'. 

Ferne asked the pair: 'Do you think you would do This Country again? You've said previously that it would be criminal to not revisit it?'

Charlie, 36, replied: 'Yeah, it's difficult and we get asked all the time - you sort of want to leave those characters the ages that they were, because it would feel weird.'

But Daisy hit back: 'No, that's not true... if we got paid enough to do another series, we'd f******g do it but that's all it comes down to, honestly. It's just money.'

Daisy admitted there might be a spanner in the works for the pair based on how they had changed from their on-screen characters in five years. 

She added: 'I've had my f*****g lips done and I'm like ten stone lighter so I don't know how we'd f*****g explain that one. That's the only thing...'

'Tapeworm,' she then joked to her brother, who simply replied: 'Oh my God.'

Last month, Daisy admitted it would be difficult for the series to return due to her dramatic weight loss, which has left her looking very different to character Kerry.

Speaking to the Radio Times, Daisy revealed her and her brother are working on something new: 'It's early days but we're working on something unscripted.

'We can't do This Country, though, because I've lost so much weight and I've had my lips done. We'd have to say that Kerry's had a tapeworm and been stung by a bee.'

Daisy has been on a dramatic weight loss journey over the last two years but previously revealed she has since been flooded with messages telling her that she's 'no longer funny' since changing her appearance.

Discussing her appearance, the mother-of-two told the BBC podcast How To Be In The Spotlight: 'I'm so for body positivity but when I was at my biggest I was at my most miserable and I had a massive food addiction.'

Daisy - who split from husband Will Weston in July 2021 after nearly two years of marriage - went on: 'I wasn't healthy. I couldn't breathe when I was walking up the stairs. I was so unhappy.

'And I've had some messages like, "Well, now you've lost the weight you're not funny any more."

'What the f**k? Why do women have to be f**king fat to be funny? That makes me so angry. I champion anybody. I think everybody should be happy with their body. But I wasn't.'

Daisy's weight loss caused a similar issue during the filming for season two of her BBC comedy Am I Being Unreasonable?

The mockumentary series, which first hit screens in 2017, followed the lives of fictional cousins Kerry and Kurtan Mucklowe in a small Cotswolds village.

Filming had to be delayed due to Daisy's new slim physique and lip filler treatment as the star joked: 'Series one is meant to be 30 seconds before series two and in that 30 seconds I've lost about ten stone and had my lips done.

'I saw the rushes and I said to the BBC, "God, we're going to have a disclaimer at the beginning saying - Daisy has had her lips done, go with it and please don't judge".'

The actor has previously admitted to undergoing cosmetic 'tweakments' including fillers and this year, said she was advised to stop getting anti-wrinkle Botox injections as the effect on her facial expressions could limit acting roles.

She previously told the BBC podcast she was banned by her agent from getting any more Botox or fillers over fears she wouldn't 'be able to act'.

She said: 'I've had Botox and then I had fillers. It was just the worst, I looked awful. There's me on The One Show and I've got that horrible pillow face. I can't move my face.

'My agent said to me: 'You've got to stop because you're not going to be able to f*****g act'.

'I literally couldn't move my eyebrows. It killed me because I loved not having any creases in my forehead. I stopped having that done. But I haven't had any surgery.

'I did go in to have a consultation for a tummy tuck and the surgeon just scared the s*** out of me. There's that dog ear thing you can get — these flaps that come from the side. I just thought, I can't. I'll use my Spanx to hold all that in.'
