Fans of the beloved comedy series Gavin and Stacey were quick to spot a mistake in a scene from the show's finale. As the final ever episode aired on Christmas Day, viewers were eagerly tuning in and even breaking records in the process.
While many deemed the episode "perfect," there were some minor issues that some fans couldn't help but point out. In one scene, Smithy, the groom-to-be, was celebrating his stag do with family and friends. During a heartwarming moment, Gavin's dad Mick Shipman described Smithy as a second son to himself and his wife Pam, as they had struggled to conceive another child.
However, some eagle-eyed viewers noticed a continuity error as Mick's pint glass seemed to change levels throughout the scene. It went from full to half-full and then topped up again as he gave his speech. One fan even shared a clip of the scene on TikTok, asking if anyone else had noticed Mick's ever-changing drink. Comments flooded in, with some playfully teasing Mick for his "thirsty" ways.
Despite the small mistake, the finale still provided a satisfying ending for fans as Smithy and Nessa finally got their happy ending. However, some viewers couldn't help but be bothered by the continuity error, with one commenting that "continuity errors are so irritating because you can't unsee them."
Interestingly, this isn't the first time a mistake has been spotted in the show's Christmas specials. Co-creator Ruth Jones recently revealed that she had noticed a glaring error while re-watching the 2019 special. In a scene where Pam forgets to take the Christmas puddings with her, viewers later see Jason arrive with more puddings from the shop. This led to a discrepancy the next morning when the characters ask if they had left nine puddings at the pub, when in fact there should have been 18.
Despite these small errors, Gavin and Stacey remains a beloved show and is available for streaming on BBC iPlayer. If you have any celebrity stories, videos, or pictures, please get in touch with our entertainment team via email, phone, or our Submit Stuff page – we would love to hear from you.
