Gavin and Stacey Christmas special: Plot
Spoilers ahead, if you haven't watched the last Christmas special!
When the series returned in 2019, it ended on a huge cliffhanger when Nessa, played by Jones, got down on one knee to propose to Smithy, played by Corden. So, five years later, it's likely we'll find out if he said yes! Here's the official synopsis:
"It's five years since we left Nessa down on one knee declaring her love for Smithy and asking him to marry her...and a lot has happened in those five years.
"In Barry, Bryn's packing the Picasso in readiness for a trip to Essex, Stacey and Gavin are looking for new ways to spice up their 17-year marriage, and Gwen is behaving most strangely.
"Nessa's started a new business venture and Neil the Baby's about to begin an apprenticeship with his dad. Over in Billericay, Pam is stressing out at the prospect of playing hostess, not helped by a newly retired Mick practicing his golf swings in the living room, and there have been more ups and downs in Pete and Dawn's relationship."
