Gavin is a salt-of-the-Earth bloke - loyal, funny and big-hearted - and the sort of guy that anyone would want as a friend. Gavin is gorgeous, but doesn't really know it, and he's never been in love - until now. When he gets married to Stacey, his best mate Smithy finds it hard to accept that Gavin now has more than one priority in life. Stacey is also 26 and lives in Barry, South Wales. Her dad died three years ago and so she has been living with her mum, Gwen.
Her best friend, Nessa, is always round her house and Stacey relies on her for advice. Stacey's very fluffy, but lovely, funny, beautiful and kind. Unlike Gavin, she has been in love before When she and Gavin get married they move into Gavin's Essex home. However it isn't long until Welsh born-and-bred Stacey starts to miss home and so, at the start of Series 3, they move to Wales.
Nessa is approximately 40 and works in the arcade on Barry Island. She's Barry born and bred, and yet she's worked in places as far flung as Peru, Namibia and Egypt. She is full of surprises - for example we learn in Series 2 that she used to be a truck driver for Eddie Stobart. It appears Nessa has had sex with most of the men in Barry, plus several celebrities. Nothing really fazes Nessa. She's stoical and grimly accepting of life, but she's also loyal and protective of those she loves - especially Stacey, Bryn and Gwen.
Blunt and to-the-point, if you ask Nessa a question you know you'll get a soul crushingly honest answer back. When Nessa becomes pregnant she has to change her lifestyle quite a bit - no more drinking for starters! Smithy is 26 and is Gavin's best friend. He loves Gavin's parents more than his own and is always round their house. Smithy is very much a bloke's bloke - his friends are everything to him and he would lay down his life for Gavin - in theory, at least.
Smithy loves unusual foreign beer, paintball, West Ham and perhaps un-surprisingly considering his build, lots of food! She is also Stacey's best friend. Among other jobs, Nessa works on "the slots" in Barry's premier amusement arcade and is a blunt woman full of downbeat wisdom. She gave Smithy a night to remember but a later liaison resulted in pregnancy and some serious decisions to be made.
Gavin is the apple of Pam's eye and always has a cooked breakfast ready for any visitors to her immaculate house. He is unemployed but has a fascination with technology - not to mention modern life in general - which he finds a constant source of remarkable wonder. Gwen is a kind, if surprising woman, who makes awesome omelettes and wants the best for her Stacey.
It could be the most ridiculous thing, or it could be a marriage made in heaven. If they did become a proper couple, would that spoil it? These are all questions that we ponder. Picture: BBC. Throughout the course of the series, she makes reference to directing hundreds of Bollywood films with actor Om Puri, working at the BBC alongside legendary journalist Kate Adie and having a relationship with former Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott.
She and Smithy have a complicated relationship, claiming to repulse each other yet sleeping together multiple times. They end up having a baby called Neil, who they co-parent as friends. In , the Christmas special revealed the pair were still co-parenting Neil, now a grown schoolboy. What else has Ruth Jones been in? When Gavin and Stacey arrange their first proper meeting, he goes along too and is introduced to Nessa. The special cut to the end credits just after Nessa admitted her feelings for Smithy and asked him to marry her.
He looked shocked and fans are desperate to know his answer. What else has James Corden been in? He also had a role in the Cats movie.
