  • YOU’VE ASKED AND WE’VE LISTENED, IT’S GAVIN & STACEY TIME! This week Rob Brydon is joined by Welsh actress, writer and producer Ruth Jones. The long-time friends look back on nearly 40 years of friendship, from meeting at school in 1981 whilst performing West Side Story, to having a number 1 hit single with Tom Jones and playing two of the most loved Welsh characters on British TV - Uncle Bryn & Nessa. Ruth also explains to Rob why she and James Corden had to keep the script for the Gavin & Stacey Christmas Special a secret (even from him!).
    Enjoyed the video? Make sure to check out Rob’s chat with his other Gavin & Stacey co-star, Alison Steadman! Available to watch now: • Alison Steadman’s top ...

    This video has proven to me that Gavin & Stacey has provided us with the best characters in television. I will never get enough of Brynn, Nessa, Smithy or even Pete and Dawn. Please keep writing during lockdown and give us more of these Welsh love birds in 2021!

Such a beautiful show that gives you the warm & fuzzies amongst all the laughs.

      I hope Rob continues doing these podcasts so much, that he has run out of people to talk about him (Rob), and allow him to even focus on the other person and what _they_ have done.
      BUT until then, I will still love these, "tell good stories about me" interviews until he gets acclimated enough to reach out to others beyond his scope of personal friends.
