Series 2 Gavin & Stacey

On the radio, James Corden says they may do another, but the characters can only go so far and he didnt want to spoil it.

Definately the xmas one hour special first, and they all have 'seperate projects' so that also put a spanner in for another series.

The second series did tail off after the first couple of episodes didn't it?
Nessa is great but kind of got laden with too many things.
Uncle Bryne was a star throughout!

I think it's probably a smart move on Corden's part cos if they do a third series he will be solidly typecast as Smithy and have nowhere else to go.

Sad, but at least we all enjoyed it while it lasted.
 
Really chuffed today - never saw Gavin &Stacey series 1 when it was on TV but my daughter loaned me a DVD of it last night and I finish work in 30 mins and I'm off home to watch it. Have a really lazy afternoon slobbing out in front of TV.

Yay, enjoy. I borrowed my mates dvd recently because I didn't watch it, it's brilliant. :cool: Tidy.

Yeah, watched episode 1 yesteerday - great to see how it all started.

Early finish today so this afternoon I'll settle back with an omlette and watch episode 2.

Tidy.
 
I watched a couple of the old shows recently (they've been on BBC4 or summat when I've come in from the pub) and I was surprised how funny and fresh they were. There really was some strong comedy writing in that show.

Series three starts at the end of November!
 
I just think the Essex stuff jars against the Welsh stuff cos the Welsh stuff is really quite funny and the Essex stuff is really, really shit and you can tell which bit James Corden did.
 
Precisely. You know what I mean though; the Welsh stuff could carry a show on its own, the Essex stuff would be bog standard shite.
 
Dunno - I think it works better because it's neither one or t'other - the, err, juxtaposition (yeah, OK...) of the two things makes it kinda cooler.

I spose you can make the argument that without Brydon it wouldn't be anywhere near as good and that he makes a lot of the Barry stuff better. But then, Larry Lamb improves the Essex end imo.

Good stuff about 3rd series. I think they plan to call it a day then don't they?

Fantastic or should I say 'Tidy'!

Been wondering when the next series was about to start.

Smithy and Nessa are one of the funniest comedy acts ever. I have a really horrible pessimistic feeling that the next, last, series won't be as good as the others, but will be delighted to be proved wrong.
