Fans of the hit sitcom Gavin and Stacey are in for a treat this Christmas as the highly-anticipated finale episode is set to air. Co-creator James Corden has hinted at a remarkable performance from one of the cast members, making us even more excited for the big day.
In a recent podcast, Corden revealed that the final episode will delve into Nessa's "chequered life", giving viewers a deeper understanding of her character. The one-off festive special takes place five years after the last episode, which ended on a cliffhanger when Nessa proposed to Smithy.
Corden praised his co-writer Ruth Jones for her incredible acting, calling it "one of the best pieces of acting" he's ever seen. He also shared that the special will have some fun moments that they wrote together.
The entire cast is returning for this final outing, and Corden couldn't speak highly enough of Jones' performance. In fact, the two have been friends since 2000 when they worked together on "Fat Friends", and their journey to creating Gavin and Stacey has been a long and emotional one.
The two writers even revisited a hotel where they wrote part of the series while working on the special. However, they quickly realized that the hotel had seen better days and ended up moving to a different one.
But it seems like their creative process involves a lot more than just writing. Jones revealed that they spend a lot of time talking and catching up before getting any work done. She also joked about the need for naps, ingredients, and chocolate to make their writing days successful.
As for the finale, the BBC has teased that Gavin and Stacey will be "looking for new ways to spice up their 17-year marriage", while Nessa starts a new business venture. Corden added that the show's messy and complicated relationships are what make it so special, and he loves the confidence the characters have in their fantastic sex life.
But despite the nation's eagerness for more, Corden hinted that this will be the last episode, and viewers will understand why when they see it. He also admitted that they don't have any other ideas for a spin-off, but he's just happy to have had the opportunity to write with Jones and will continue to do so in the future.
The show's stellar cast, including Mathew Horne, Joanna Page, Alison Steadman, Larry Lamb, Melanie Walters, and Rob Brydon, will all be returning for the finale. And with the first official trailer dropping during the Strictly Come Dancing final, fans got a glimpse of what's to come, including a reference to the infamous fishing trip.
But perhaps the most exciting moment was seeing Nessa and Smithy grinding on the dance floor at Pam and Mick's Christmas bash, hinting at a potential romantic reconciliation. And with just a few days left until the finale airs, fans are eagerly waiting to see how it all unfolds.
The finale episode of Gavin and Stacey will air on Christmas Day, followed by a documentary called "Gavin and Stacey: A Fond Farewell" on New Year's Day. So mark your calendars and get ready for one last ride with our favorite Welsh and English families.
