Gavin & Stacey cast take over BBC Radio 2 to celebrate return

As a devoted fan who has grown up with Gavin & Stacey and cherished every heartwarming moment of its humor and relatable characters, this special Radio 2 breakfast show takeover feels like a delightful Christmas present! The anticipation for the finale is reaching fever pitch as I reminisce about the cliffhanger from the 2019 Christmas special.

Today’s (December 23rd) edition of the BBC Radio 2 breakfast show was filled with a unique flair as James Corden and Ruth Jones stepped in to host following Zoe Ball’s departure.

As a devoted film buff, I eagerly awaited the takeover, knowing full well that the long-anticipated Gavin & Stacey finale was scheduled for Christmas Day. Intriguingly, the talented team behind the show and its illustrious cast members extended invitations to their fellow central actors, promising a grand reunion for this beloved television series.

Besides Joanna Page, Mathew Horne, Rob Brydon, Alison Steadman, Larry Lamb, Robert Wilfort, and Melanie Walters, the remaining cast who participated were part of the show’s three-hour span. Each one contributed to different segments throughout the broadcast.

At the outset of the program, Corden and Jones expressed, “It’s probably just as shocking to you that we’re hosting the Radio 2 breakfast show. But let me tell you, it’s even more surprising for us!

Throughout the course of the show, the actors shared their unique Christmas customs and preferred holiday tunes as they fielded listener queries. Simultaneously, Corden and Jones delved into their collaborative writing approach. You can hear the entire broadcast by following this link.

Excitement has reached an all-time peak as fans eagerly await the conclusion of the Gavin & Stacey series, where we’ll discover if Nessa’s proposal to Smithy from the 2019 Christmas episode will be accepted or not.

This development will also fill us in on the recent events involving the characters from the last five years, and perhaps subtly provide more clues about the mysterious fishing trip between Bryn and Jason many years back.

As a devoted admirer, I’m excited because Stars Horne and Page hint that the finale won’t let us down. Page even referred to it as a “typical Gavin & Stacey” episode, suggesting that she truly comprehends why Corden and Jones have opted to conclude this cherished series at this juncture.

Simultaneously, Gavin Starr Horne commented that the pair had penned a “perfect conclusion,” which is quite an accolade.
