James Corden “Very Emotional” After Finishing Script For Final Episode Of Comedy ‘Gavin And Stacey’


The writer and actor said he felt "very emotional" after penning the last words of the comedy.

Writing is really fun, because you can just go ‘anything can happen.’ But when you rewrite stuff, you’re dealing with a lot of logistics and ‘well, look we might not be able to shoot that, or this needs to be in this location, is there any way this can change?’ And frankly, it’s too long. The show initially ran on the BBC between 2007 and 2010 , revolving around characters Gavin and Stacey, played by Matthew Horne and Joanna Page, who meet and have a long-distance relationship between Essex, north-east of London, and Barry, in Wales. Although that was meant to the last ever episode, Corden and Jones announced earlier this year they’d be coming back for one final goodbye, to tie up all the loose ends including resolve the cliffhanger left at the end of the previous episode, when Jones’s character Nessa proposed to Corden’s character Smithy.
