I'm in tears. Maybe I'm just emotional but can't believe how much the show means to me

And the ending... tidy!

I watched it and can’t understand what all the fuss is about. Nessa is a horrible coarse woman, why do u all love her? She ripped off that couple on the pedal ride for £70 abd was kicking the arcade machines. Seems a horrible sort of woman or am I missing something?

SirChenjins · 27/12/2024 19:02

Yes you’re missing something - several seasons of previous episodes will tell you what

Well.If you have only watched, the finale rather than than every episode,from the beginning than you really are not going to.get it
Its quite, arrogant of you to.assume we,are,all wrong.

On the one hand I get the love but on the other neither Ruth Jones nor James Corden are a Russel T Davies.

@BoldAmberDuck
I've watched it from the beginning (only a few weeks ago) and Nessa is absolutely my heroine! She gives not a fuck and to me (a people pleaser) that is awesome!

My New Years resolution is to "Be more Nessa"!

I.wss,on your thread I was,the,same with Happy Valley I hadent seen a,single episode untill.after the,finale then I binged it over a,couple of weeks and couldn't believe what I had missed
With Gavin and Stacey I didn't see it from.The beginning I remember watching a,random episode and,wondering what all the fuss was about
But a few,years,later I started from the beginning and got it ,it's story in itself imo.You can't really watch a,random episode and appreciate it.

Lots of people got married in the last 5 years though. I don't hold with the pandemic excuse. I still think they both knew it wasn't right so didn't rush.

Sonia is clearly high maintenance and wanted a massive expensive wedding. Smithy paid for it all. For 2 years of that he would have likely had a massive drop in income due to covid and being self employed so would have likely needed any savings he had to live then save them back up again to pay. Having planned a wedding smack bang in the middle of covid and with a tradie partner I find the timeline all very relatable.

I cried when I watched it again on boxing day 😆😆

You have embarrassed yourself.

Have you watched any episodes before this?

Fluffmum · 27/12/2024 20:48

I loves you Genuine made me cry

Clearly not just watching the finale wouldn't make sense

Yeah thats,very true plus he was,very commited, to paying for Neil the baby im.sure,he paid,above and beyond the basic plus treats,etc.

That comment made me LOL too! 😆

Wait til that poster @BoldAmberDuck watches the episode where Nessa gives everyone a tap for a Christmas gift! And the one where she gives them all an individual celebration chocolate! Bet they will think she's a monster! 😂

Nessa is a fucking legend. I want her to be my friend!

@Fluffmum 'I loves you' is very endearing isn't it? Smile Also 'it hurts in here...' as she fist bumped her chest. 😢

Again, what's with all the Gavin and Stacey bashing on here this past few days? (And mostly from people who don't seem to have watched it properly - ever!)

I reckon it's mostly jealous Outnumbered fans who are bitter because that Christmas special was wank! 😂

As,Nessa,herself said in the last Xmas special.on paper her and Smith y don't make sense,but in bed they are,electric but they also have Neil the baby between them who they have clearly put first and they have developed a,close and loving relationship
Team Smithy,and Nessa

100% this. ^ They make FAR more sense than Smithy and Sonia. They were like chalk and cheese!

Is that meant to be a bad thing? I find quite a bit of his stuff underwhelming.

I agree!

Snowmanscarf · 27/12/2024 21:37

Loved it. Thought the acting was superb. The best person in it was Alison Stedman - she nailed it.

Edited

The glorious bit when she borrows the batteries from the TV remote for 'some me time'..then puts them back saying she didn't need them and goes to rinse two fingers under the tap.

Yes a few but not every one. How is it embarrassing to say I found her an unpleasant woman?

Yes you’re missing something - several seasons of previous episodes will tell you what

I’ve watched a few but don’t think I will ever bother to watch the whole lot. Seems a huge amount of women really enjoyed it though so that’s good

Marine30 · 27/12/2024 22:09

Brilliant rendition - some great acting in G and S and a great cameo by Anna MS. Mick still wonderful. Fingers still hot 15 years later.So much better than Outnumbered which was a real anti-climax.

Lilywc · 27/12/2024 22:30

Nope not for me
