The beloved BBC series Gavin and Stacey concluded with a heartwarming Christmas special reunion of the cherished gang. Despite Smithy initially accepting a proposal from Sonia, a dramatic turn of events sees him ditching the wedding to reunite with Nessa.
Gavin and Stacey enthusiasts were absolutely thrilled as the cherished gang came together one last time for a festive showdown on Christmas Day. After a whole 17 years brimming with laughter and unforgettable personalities, fans finally got their fix in what was a poignant sign-off from the much-adored BBC series.
The grand finale revealed Smithy, played by James Corden, had declined Nessa's (Ruth Jones) proposal from the much-talked-about 2019 Christmas special, and instead was opting to wed his other half Sonia, portrayed by Laura Aikman. While hearts were heavy and nerves frayed, fans were ecstatic to witness a happy resolution for Nessa and Smithy as the 90-minute episode drew to an end. Scriptwriters Ruth and James endeavoured to get the whole crew back together, bringing in stars such as Russell Tovey (Budgie) and Sheridan Smith (Rudi). Nonetheless, Gwynfor Roberts, who graced the screen as Dick Powell in two episodes and whose presence lingered throughout the saga, didn't grace the final pages of the Christmas script due to a congested line up. Initially making the cut for the script, he was later edited out. At a pre-screening event for the special, Ruth said: 'I think in the original script we had Dick Powell. There just wasn't room for him, God bless him,' reports the Mirror. Still, she expressed delight at reuniting the rest of the crew for the farewell episode. Fans were left gobsmacked when the final episode of the beloved series kicked off with a wedding, but it wasn't the anticipated union between Smithy and Nessa. Instead, viewers saw Smithy gearing up to tie the knot with his snobby girlfriend Sonia, portrayed by Laura Aikman, who had secretly joined the set to maintain the element of surprise. In a dramatic twist, Smithy's mate Gavin, played by Mathew Horne, halted the wedding in its tracks, leading to Smithy ditching Sonia at the altar to chase after Nessa before she sailed away, setting the stage for their own nuptial
