It might be a decade since Gavin & Stacey graced our screens, but we remember the highs and lows, the running gags and the gang from Barry and Billericay, like it was only yesterday.
So when we heard that the cult show was returning for a one-off Christmas Day special, we were so excited, we couldn’t get to sleep til half past ten! And with the big day just around the corner, it’s shaping up to be an oh, oh, oh so crackin’ Christmas.
To celebrate, here’s our round up of what’s occurring on the Gavlar and Stace gift front, courtesy of the Whiskey With Water (AKA the world wide web).
