Great news everyone! It's official - Gavin and Stacey is making a comeback with one last special episode, and we couldn't be more thrilled! The beloved sitcom has been the talk of the town for months, with rumors flying left and right about its possible return. But after months of keeping us in suspense, creators James Corden and Ruth Jones have finally made a huge announcement.
On Friday, the hilarious James Corden, who plays Smithy on the show, shared a photo of him and Ruth peeking over a script with the words "Gavin and Stacey: the finale" written on it. The excitement was palpable as fans eagerly anticipated the special episode, which is set to air later this year. James wrote, "Some news...It's official!!! We have finished writing the last ever episode of Gavin and Stacey. See you on Christmas Day, BBC One. Love Ruth and James." The post was flooded with comments from ecstatic fans who couldn't wait to see what the creators had in store for them.
This announcement comes after Ruth, who plays the iconic Nessa, previously denied the rumors, calling them "sadly a rumor" when reports surfaced over the summer that a Christmas special was in the works. The show, which followed the long-distance relationship of Gavin and Stacey, played by Mathew Horne and Joanna Page, respectively, was a hit with viewers during its original three series run from 2007 to 2010. It returned in 2019 for a festive special that broke records, scoring the highest overnight Christmas ratings in 12 years with an average audience of 11.6 million viewers. By the New Year, it had been viewed by 17.1 million people, making it the biggest scripted programme of the decade at the time. The special also went on to win the impact award at the National Television Awards in 2020, solidifying its place as a beloved and iconic show.
If you're a fan of Gavin and Stacey, this news is surely a cause for celebration. Whether you're a fan of Nessa's one-liners, Smithy's antics, or the endearing love story of Gavin and Stacey, this final special is sure to be a treat. So mark your calendars for Christmas Day and get ready to reunite with your favorite characters for one last time. And who knows, maybe we'll get more surprises from the creators before then. As they say, the best things come to those who wait. Got a story to share? If you've got any juicy celebrity stories, videos, or pictures, don't hesitate to get in touch with us.
