admin | Save & Share

digitalspy reported the head of BBC One, Jay Hunt, said

“I talked to Ruth and James a lot about Gavin & Stacey, We’ve got no immediate plans to bring it back. I’m not only a huge fan of the show myself, but I know audiences in their millions loved it last Christmas. So no immediate plans, but I’d certainly say ‘never say never’.”

Accoding to Chortle

Plans for a US version of Gavin & Stacey have been shelved, co-writer Ruth Jones believes

‘I haven’t heard any more and I think we would have heard something by now,’ she told TV Choice magazine. ‘I always felt if they made one and it was successful, then that’s great, but if they didn’t, it was never going to detract from the British version.’

The Daily Mail says

From September, GCSE pupils in Wales will also be scrutinising the words of Gavin and Stacey stars Ruth Jones and Rob Brydon, as well as TV newsreader Huw Edwards for their English qualifications.

The modern language spoken element of the exam is being introduced by Welsh examining board OCR Cymru.
But the move to introduce TV personalities into GCSE exams has been blasted as ‘dumbing down’ by education campaigners.

“No, I think it is good that it has finished when it has. It has gone out on a high. I think they have been very clever doing that.

“It would have been very tempting to carry on and go out on a low.

“But I would like to do a special sometime. It was a lovely show and everyone working on it got on.”

Joanna Page- A Gavin and Stacey musical would be great fun

admin | Save & Share

A musical based on Gavin and Stacey is unlikely but a nice idea, one of its stars has said.

according to uktheatretickets.co.uk

Joanna Page has said that while she loves the idea of a Gavin and Stacey musical, she is not sure that it would work out too well in real life.

The Welsh actress told BBC Radio 1′s Newsbeat she had read a newspaper report recently which claimed that such a show is in the pipeline.

However, she pointed out that the cast would probably be laughing too much to get through a single performance.

“I’ll tell you what, it would be absolutely hilarious! I think it would be really good fun. But we’d probably all giggle,” Page said.
