Gavin and Stacey is arguably the most iconic tv show to come out of wales, and behind me they’re filming for the final ever episode. There’s a big group of fans here trying to catch a glimpse of their favourite stars, and some people here have travelled as far as Shropshire and north wales to be here, and everyone’s been telling me how great it is to be here.

00:00I'm really excited. We've got to meet everybody as well.
00:03I've had some nice pictures.
00:04I've got my 16-year-old daughter with me today as well.
00:07She's excited. It's fab.
00:09Nice little atmosphere as well.
00:10Everybody's nice, everybody's friendly. Excited.
00:13Yeah, yeah. It's been really friendly, hasn't it?
00:16They've been chatting to people as well, which seems really nice.
00:19And, yeah, making the most of it.
00:22Hmm.
00:23A bit ashamed about the weather, isn't it, today?
00:25We're only an hour away.
00:26And I'm really excited to meet everybody.
00:29And it was doable.
00:30It was, yeah. Yeah.
00:31The last show as well. That's exciting.
00:34So, it feels like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
00:36if it is the last ever episode.
00:38We've had a nice time.
00:40We did come yesterday as well.
00:42And it's just nice.
00:44And it's nice because you know it's the final.
00:46It's nice to get to meet the cast.
00:47And it's something that will stay with us all forever, I think.
00:50Yeah, yeah. We've come from Shropshire.
00:52About three hours' drive, hasn't it? Yeah, yeah.
00:54Yeah, sure.
00:55So, we're stopping further up at Porthcawl.
00:57So, we thought we'd come en route and see what's going on.
01:00We were checking where the filming was.
01:01We've been following it on Facebook.
01:03And we're really excited to see if we could see anyone.
01:05We were like this earlier, weren't we? Yeah, we were.
01:07Actually, no.
01:08We kind of like the fact that not everything is answered.
01:10And you've kind of got to make your own sort of distinctions
01:13about things and...
01:14Yeah, it's part of the show is having those unanswered things.
01:16Like, I don't necessarily want to know what happened
01:18on the fishing trip.
01:19I just like that it's referred to.
01:20And it's one of those life's mysteries.
01:23We're a little way up here from where they're filming.
01:25So, fans have had to get quite a bit of help.
01:27And they've been quite creative in finding the best places
01:30to catch a glimpse.
01:32Fantastic. Get yourself up there.
01:35It's great.
01:36We came all the way from Llandudbury.
01:38Which is about an hour and a half.
01:40So, yeah.
01:42We did what we aimed to do.
01:46See Gavin and Stacey.
01:48Their favourite programme, so...
01:50Yeah.
01:51Fans are just happy to be here today.
01:53And conversation, of course, turned to the episode itself.
01:56And the question on everyone's lips has been,
01:58will Smithy say yes?
02:00And it's certainly torn opinions here today.
02:03I just think they're both going to get married.
02:07I think Ness is probably going to say no.
02:10Ness will say yes.
02:11Yeah, I think they'll get married.
02:14They will do.
02:15I would like to see Nessa and Smithy having got married.
02:17But I don't think they will.
02:18I think it's too normal for them.
02:21I think it's going to go a different way, but it'd be nice.
02:24Yeah, I'm not sure how it would work.
02:25I don't like their dysfunctional relationship.
02:29Yeah.
02:30But, yeah.
02:31I hope Gavin and Stacey are still together
02:32and Pam and Mick are still together.
02:34Do you think that they will get married?
02:35I think they will, yeah.
02:36They'll be already married.
02:37They've got to.
02:38Yeah.
02:39They have to.
02:40They will.
02:41They will.
02:42Nessa and Smithy, whether they're going to get married and...
02:46Yeah.
02:47What are your thoughts?
02:48Will they? Will they?
02:49Well, hopefully.
02:50I think so.
02:51Yeah.
02:52We're hoping, aren't we?
02:53Yeah.
02:54I don't know about us, but you never know.
02:56They might do it again, mightn't they?
