James Corden has recently made a bold declaration about the beloved show, Gavin and Stacey. As the final ever episode approaches, Corden has stated that the show "cannot carry on". The comedy series first aired in 2007 and has followed the romantic relationship between Gavin Shipman (played by Mathew Horne) and Stacey West (played by Joanna Page) as their families from Essex and Barry Island get to know each other.
The show, which also stars creators Ruth Jones and James Corden as fan-favorite characters Nessa and Smithy, left fans on the edge of their seats with a cliffhanger in the 2019 Christmas special. However, as the final episode approaches, James has hinted that it may be a difficult one to watch and that this truly is the end. In fact, Ruth Jones has guaranteed that there will be no more episodes after this.
In a recent interview with Fleur, James, and Matt for a Hits Radio Christmas special, James revealed that there are certain moments in the finale that make it clear that the show cannot continue. As writers, they are proud of what they have created and have given it their all. However, they simply do not know how to continue the story and feel that it is time to bid farewell to these beloved characters.
James also opened up about the pressure that came with writing the finale. He felt a responsibility to get it right and to serve the characters and the audience. He hopes that fans will feel satisfied with the ending and that it is the right way to say goodbye to these characters who have been a part of their lives for so long.
While James remained tight-lipped about the actual storyline, he did reveal that the Christmas special is not actually set during the holiday season. The BBC has also teased what fans can expect from the finale, with hints of a trip to Essex and a party at Pam and Mick's house.
In Billericay, Pam is stressed about hosting the party and Mick's retirement has left him practicing his golf swings in the living room. Meanwhile, Gavin and Stacey's relationship may hit some bumps and there may be some limbo dancing involved.
The final episode will air on Christmas Day at 9pm on BBC One and iPlayer, with a documentary called "Gavin and Stacey: A Fond Farewell" airing on New Year's Day at 7pm on BBC One and iPlayer. As the end draws near, fans are preparing to say goodbye to this beloved show and its characters. But one thing is for sure, Gavin and Stacey will always hold a special place in our hearts.
