James Corden and Ruth Jones announced in May that the beloved BBC programme, starring Joanna Page as Stacey and Mathew Horne as Gavin, would be returning for one final Christmas special. The show originally ran from 2007 to 2010, before coming back for a festive episode in 2019, with a cliffhanger leaving us begging to know what happened after Nessa (Ruth) proposed to Smithy (James).
Though plot details and spoilers have been kept tightly under wraps, we do know it’s set to be a very emotional ride, but the tears have already started streaming. The cast reunited for a BBC Radio 2 takeover, with singalongs, Rob Brydon reading the travel news in the style of Uncle Bryn, James dropped recipes, and answering messages from fans.
They were joined by Pam and Mick actors Alison Steadman and Larry Lamb, and Robert Wilfort, who plays Stacey’s brother Jason, though Gwen actress Melanie Walters didn’t appear to be present. As the radio show wrapped up, the stars celebrated being together for one last time, and were left wiping back tears and sharing hugs.
A clip shared on social media saw Alison comforting James as he hugged her, while Mathew and Joanna held hands on the sofa, holding back tears. Alison was also seen weeping, while James appeared to mouth ‘love you’ to Larry as he stood up for a hug.
