Gavin and Stacey to return next Christmas?
Mathew Horne expects a Gavin and Stacey special next year.
He says: “It hasn’t died down – if anything it’s intensified purely because it is on all the time.
“There won’t be another series, but there are talks about something next year, perhaps a Christmas special.
“It’s been mooted but there is no script and no dates, nothing like that.
“It would be lovely to work with everyone else again – as long as the script is right, which inevitably it will be.”

Never say never to more Gavin and Stacey
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’.”
Gavin and Stacey USA is not going to happen
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.’
Rob Brydon likes the idea of a Uncle Bryn Gavin and Stacey Spin-off
According to the Daily Star
he said he would only do a follow-up to the BBC sitcom if the script was funny enough.“If they good enough, then maybe,” said Rob, 45. “You’ve got to be careful. You’ve got to know when you’ve overstayed your welcome.”
Gavin and Stacey get a GCSE
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.
Rob Brydon is out of any new Gavin & Stacey series.
According to the News of the World Rob said
“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.”
