James Corden hints Gavin and Stacey could return for a full series

[Twosugars]

After the tidy response to the Gavin and Stacey Christmas special, which saw the return of the beloved BBC sitcom after almost a decade off our screens, its co-creator James Corden has hinted that it may now return for a full fourth series.

Oscar Hartland, who stars in the show as Neil ‘the baby’ – the son of Smithy (Corden) and Nessa (co-creator Ruth Jones) – told presenters on Good Morning Britain that he asked Corden on set whether Gavin and Stacey could make a full series comeback, and Corden replied that it might happen if it’s “what the people want.”

I dont know how he will find the time to film 6 hour long episodes when he struggled to find the time to film 1 hour

They’d be half hour presumably but same point I guess

Just as well you're not in charge of his diary

You clearly dont understand he has a daily chat show in the States that airs almost every week 5 times

I'm aware of that.

But if Corden himself says he will do it if that's what people want I will take his word for it not yours :laugh:

[Oliver_W]

I guess if he's particularly fond of Gavin and Stacey he'll find a way to make time:)

[Marsh.]

Please no.

I love the show but, no.

[Marsh.]

He didn't struggle at all.

The struggle was getting the entire cast to find a gap when they were all free at the same time.

If it came back, I'd fear it would go the same way as Still Game, in that it tries to stay funny/relevant by using the same old gags and catchphrases that were good 10 years ago.

I'd still watch it, mind you. :laugh:

This is what I thought too

[Oliver_W]

I didn't start watching Still Game until the penultimate season, and I really enjoyed it. I've not "caught up" yet with the older ones...

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

I wish james cordon would **** off

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

Did nobody find it weird how in the first few series he’s dating an underage girl or somn and they used that for jokes :eyes:

Correct me if i’m wrong i never really paid much attention coz it was ****

:nono: She wasn't underage. She was just about 10 years younger than Smithy so it led to schoolgirl jokes.

I heard that Smithy was supposed to be 24.


Shocking paedophilia from BBC. :nono:

They say they're 28 in like series 2. :hmph:

[Babayaro.]

They say they're 28 in like series 2. :hmph:

I heard that they did a 4 year time jump from series 1 to 2.

sad.

[Marsh.]

Remember when they filmed a pilot for an American Gavin & Stacey with Rory from Gilmore Girls. :skull:

[Marsh.]

Oh wait, I just read they actually filmed 7 episodes and they have only aired in Korea. :joker:

[Daniel-X]

It’s the most overrated tosh ever. Please god no.

[Ant.]

what i wanna know is how Smithy found a 17 year old girl to date?!

This isn't Grindr and it's certainly NOT the gay scene. An age gap larger than two years in the hetero-world is simply UNHEARD of. How would a 17 year old meet a 27 year old?!

Harry Styles and Caroline Flack had a "Harold and Maud" thing going on to be fair.

I wouldn't say an age gap is unheard of at all.

But teens and late 20s is a rarity I grant you.

well smithy was an awful character so i guess we should've seen the Flack being cancelled a mile off huh?

[LaLaLand]

I hope so! :fc:

[Marsh.]

Ok, Caroline Flack beat her boyfriend to a pulp but she doesn't deserve to be called Smithy. :o

:joker:

PLEASE tell me you find Smithy annoying too?!

When people PRAISED him in a thread the other day I felt my spleen rupture :umm2:

[Marsh.]

I actually used to hate James Corden.

He doesn't annoy me as much as he used to.

But, in the show, he makes me laugh one or two times but he's not the funniest character at all.

[Cal.]

We just want the Pam and Dawn spin off.

[Marsh.]

Pam and Dawn is what we deserve.

[Oliver_W]

i hope she was reported to NSPCC D:

[armand.kay]

keep it.

[Babayaro.]

Smithy is the best character along with Bryn, actually :nono:
