Linking the longer trailer here for anyone who hasn’t seen it.

I think one of the clever things about the show is that Gavin and Stacey are quite annoying really and it’s the other characters that make it so funny. Still can’t hear that Coldplay song without hearing Pete say Lights will gui-ay-ay-ay-ayd you home. Grin Also when anyone mentions Scooby Doo Last time you saw him he called you Scrappy Doo and you punched him in the face!.

The full trailer makes me feel much better about things!

I don’t think it’s aged much.

The smoking in bars thing seemed weird even within a year of the smoking ban and I think the first season must have been filmed just before that came in.

Re: the sixth former girls friend. That wasn’t presented as normal. It was a joke and a bit of a “are we allowed to laugh at this?” Shock even then. They pushed it further by joking about her being grounded, having a netball trip, collecting sylvanian families ... They weren’t trying to be PC. I bet they had quite a few discussions on what they could get away with on that joke and I don’t think there were ever any references to sex so that’s probably where they drew the line.

The second trailer was much better than the first.
