Ruth Jones Names 1 Reason Gavin And Stacey Really Is Done For Good

Ruth Jones at the TV Baftas on Sunday nightRuth Jones has made it clear that anyone hoping she and James Corden will change their minds about making more Gavin & Stacey in the future is setting themself up for disappointment.On Sunday night, Ruth picked up a TV Bafta for her performance as Nessa in the final episode of Gavin & Stacey, which she and James co-wrote as well as starred in.The pair were very open about the fact that the one-off special – which aired on Christmas Day – would be the last instalment of the hit sitcom, and she doubled down on this while speaking to reporters in the TV Baftas winners’ room.“You don’t really want to see Smithy and Nessa in that domestic set-up,” Ruth said. “The whole joy of them was that kind of ‘will they, won’t they?’, and you know, do you really want to see Nessa and Smithy talking about putting the bins out? You don’t really.”@huffpostukWe beg to differ!

And I hope that we will carry on working together.“I think we will – because we both like sitting in a room together. We do a lot of napping… but we do write as well. When we get going. And I just love working with him.”@huffpostuk‘There is an awful lot of napping’ - Ruth Jones is candid about what the future holds for her and her Gavin and Stacey co-writer James Corden #bafta#ukcomedy#uktv#gavinandstacey#uktalent#welshtiktok#jamescorden♬ original sound - HuffPost UKCheck out the full list of winners from this year’s TV Baftas here.READ MORE:James Corden Has A Controversial Take On This Gavin & Stacey Finale StorylineGavin & Stacey Releases 'Lost Footage' Of Infamous Fishing Trip And It's As Odd As You'd ExpectHere's Why This Tear-Jerking Scene From The Gavin & Stacey Finale Had To Be Rewritten
