Gavin and Stacey series co-creator Ruth Jones has hinted that the show could return for more episodes once this year’s Christmas special has aired.
In a recent interview with Red magazine, Jones, who also stars as Nessa in the comedy series, said: “I think it would be churlish of me to say there won’t be any more [episodes].
“The honest truth is there are no plans, but I don’t think I could ever say never.”
Jones also spoke about the process of writing the Christmas special with co-creator James Corden, 10 years after the show wrapped, describing it as “a bit strange initially”.
“Although we’d seen each other over the years, we hadn’t spent any great length of time together,” she said. “But what’s nice about the way we write is that we just act out the characters ourselves, so it’s like playing, really. We make each other laugh a lot.”
Jones said everybody was “over the moon” by the positive reaction to the trailer for the Christmas special, which was released by the BBC last week. “It was astonishing,” she said. “Jo Page [who plays Stacey] was almost hysterical.”
Gavin and Stacey returns to BBC One at 8.30pm on Christmas Day.
