Fans of the beloved show Gavin and Stacey have been eagerly awaiting news about its future, and creator Ruth Jones has finally confirmed that the show will be coming to an end for real this time. Originally ending in 2010, the series made a surprise return with a one-off Christmas special in 2019, leaving viewers with a major cliffhanger.
After years of speculation and fans constantly asking for more, Ruth and co-writer James Corden have decided to give viewers one last Christmas episode set in the familiar locations of Barry Island and Billericay. Ruth, who also stars as Nessa in the show, expressed her excitement and gratitude for the love and support the show has received, but also delivered the sad news that this will be the final episode.
"It will be the end," Ruth stated on BBC Woman's Hour, putting an end to the constant questioning about the show's future. However, she also acknowledged that she may continue to be asked about it even after it ends. This upcoming Christmas special will mark the third and final one for Gavin and Stacey, and Ruth is unsure if the questions will ever truly stop.
The news of the finale was unfortunately leaked before an official announcement, which meant Ruth had to lie to friends and family when they asked about it. She expressed her disappointment and frustration about the leak, as she and James had wanted to give everyone a nice surprise.
The happy news was confirmed on May 3rd through an Instagram post by James, which showed him and Ruth posing with the script. Limited details have been released since then, but there is speculation that Sheridan Smith may reprise her role as Rudi, Smithy's sister. Other beloved cast members, such as Matthew Horne and Joanna Page, are also expected to return.
Oscar Hartland, who played baby Neil in the show, has also shared his ideas for the direction he would like his character to go in. "Neil should have a dark turn," he remarked. "He has always been very likeable, so that would be fun."
The Agency entertainment team is also eagerly awaiting the finale and is encouraging anyone with a celebrity story, video, or pictures to share it with them. Whether it's through email, phone, or their Submit Stuff page, they would love to hear from you. So mark your calendars for Christmas day because Gavin and Stacey's final episode promises to be a memorable one.
