Never seen it before in my life - until today when I watched all of series one (off sick just now).

How can I not have seen this before? Absolutely fabulous stuff. Alison Steadman is so identical to my Auntie Steff I can't believe it. Grin

No point to my post other than it's so nice to watch something that genuinely makes you laugh and I can't remember the last time that happened with a TV programme. Smile

@AllDaySnacker my Dad met Doris in person years ago, said she was one of the nicest people that he had ever met Smile

Oh god, the singing along to James Blunt in the Picasso

This was so hilarious I really couldn't stop laughing. I've no idea how the actress who plays Gwen kept a straight face during that scene. I wish I had an Uncle Bryn!

We binge watched the lot in about a week recently. So funny! Can't believe I've missed out for so long.

Neil will be about 11. I remember in the Christmas Special when Bryn is talking to Pete's mum he says:
"It's Christmas Day 2008, Gordon Brown is the Prime Minister..."
So he was born in 2008.

DD1 was 2007 and she's 12. Smile

I love it! Nessa is brilliant, I can't wait for the Christmas special this year.
I think I'm gonna have to re-watch it again before ita released.
My OH hates it, he obviously has no taste!

BusySittingDown · 11/10/2019 23:31

When Bryn is teaching Gav to use the internet...so funny! And then he reveals that he works in computers.

Breams can come true...GrinGrin

So excited about the Christmas Special

TinklyLittleLaugh · 12/10/2019 00:38

What will Neil, the baby, be like? I’m expecting a chubby, super confident, high achieving kind of kid. Ness and Smithy will be very hands off, benignly neglectful parents.

Gavin and Stacey’s offspring will be an anxious, hesitant little kid, who will require lots of gentle pep talks from Grandad Mick.

Gwen will do lots of the childcare.

Bloody love G&S

Someone on MN lives in Bryn's house BTW and rented it out to film crews! She posted pictures once, made my day

GunpowderGelatine · 12/10/2019 01:23

My favourite moment has to be Pam covering one eye whilst singing Gabriella 🤣

GunpowderGelatine · 12/10/2019 01:27

I also loved when Nessa called Gwen her mum.

"I mean you Gwen, not Gwen from Budgens"

neonglow · 12/10/2019 01:36

Mathew Horne was quoted as saying Gavin will be a ‘tired dad’ with an ‘almost grown-up child’ in the Christmas special, which makes me think they’re possibly not following an accurate timeline in line with actual time... Gavin/Stacey’s baby would about 9 or 10 surely?

KaleidoscopeEyes · 12/10/2019 01:40

Ness in the bath

'Will you do my back? Razor's on the side' Grin

TheScruffyDog · 12/10/2019 02:22

"Come in Neil, follow me" when he's in the sling i used to say that to DS when he was on my back loads 😂

AllDaySnacker · 12/10/2019 08:07

@imundecided awww thanks for telling me! I found G&S pretty late on, and didn’t have the chance to take a holiday in Wales just to watch the filming... would have loved to have seen Doris in action. :)

FaithInfinity · 12/10/2019 08:50

I’ll have a pint...of wine. Grin

twosoups1972 · 12/10/2019 08:54

Love G&S

'you're taking the mick Mick'

'You're eating ham Pam'

Love the Christmas episode where they're opening presents and Ness and Smithy have given everyone an individually wrapped celebration chocolate.

Elodie2019 · 12/10/2019 08:55

beatrice Thank you for the Dawn suggestions! I'm watching now!

NomDeQwerty · 12/10/2019 08:58

I wish they'd publish the scripts.

"Look who's alone now, it's not me, it's not meee"

I think G&S will be living next door to Gwen as I think Doris will have left her house to Stacey.
