As someone who has been following and cherishing Gavin & Stacey since its inception back in 2007, I can confidently say that the recent finale was nothing short of a heartwarming Christmas gift. Having waited five long years to find out the fate of Nessa and Smithy, I must admit that my anticipation was at an all-time high.

Gavin and Stacey’s series finale brought joy to viewers. The Christmas Day broadcast of the show set a record for viewership that day. Fans were thrilled when the BBC brought back the show as a delightful holiday surprise, since the last episode, which had ended five years ago on a cliffhanger, was a topic of anticipation among fans.

Regarding the episode broadcasted in 2019, viewers found themselves pondering over the potential developments between Nessa and Smithy. Five years prior, this series was acclaimed as one of the highest-ranking television programs on air.

The show initially attracted an audience of 11.6 million, which soon reached 18 million. The viewership increased to 12.6 million for the last episode, which was released on the festive day. 

“The latest episode lived up to expectations, with the show’s creators, such as Ruth Jones and James Corden, going the extra mile to keep the best parts of the exceptional episode under wraps.

The cast members of the show are Matthew Horne, Joanna Page, Larry Lamb, and Rob Brydon.

In the end, Gavin & Stacey outshone other well-known Christmas specials such as Doctor Who and Wallace and Gromit during their finale. This popular series initially debuted in May 2007 with an episode centered around the two characters whose names are found in its title.

Gavin and Stacey have been in a long-distance relationship for the past six months, communicating primarily through digital means and phone calls. They now wish to be physically close to each other, but their loved ones might present some obstacles to their union.

Besides both fans and critics, as well as the show’s actors, Corden and Jones, all gathered to see the finale episode of their program. Later on, the talk show host posted a photo of the two on Instagram, accompanied by the caption: “It was essential that we be together for tonight’s viewing.
