The exclusive events are in celebration of Ruth and James’ new book, When Gavin Met Stacey and Everything in Between: A Story of Love and Friendship, which is due for release on October 9.
Full of revelations and never-before-heard stories, this is a one-of-a-kind event about Gavin and Stacey, the TV show that’s already gone down in history. Join Ruth and James in conversation as they recount the rejection, obstacles and challenges they faced on the way to giving birth to their beloved comedy creation, and as they explore the flourishing of their own real-life friendship.
While their now legendary on-screen characters Nessa and Smithy had a profound awkwardness to negotiate, culminating in that marriage proposal in the 2019 Christmas special, Ruth and James forged a magical relationship of mutual support based also on a deep, shared sense of subversive fun.
From their tentative initial pitch to the emotionally overwhelming final day of filming, the duo detail what’s occurred every step of the way, bouncing off each other in inimitable style. Expect laughter, memorable moments, and behind-the-scenes secrets from Barry Island to Billericay.
Gavin and Stacey came to an end on Christmas Day 2024, culminating with an extraordinary finale airing 17 years after the show was first broadcast. The finale was the most-watched scripted show in over two decades, attracting over 19.3m viewers.
Whilst Ruth and James have seemingly laid the much loved show to rest, the pair are currently working on a new eight-part sitcom for Apple TV. According to Deadline, the new series is called The Choir, and it will follow siblings Ben (James) and Lisa (Ruth), who have been estranged for several years. Ben is forced to return to the small English town where Lisa lives, however, he’s forced to ‘return to a life he never wanted’ and a family he doesn’t understand.
