Gavin & Stacey: Bringing a crackin' Christmas to Barry

Oh! What's occurring? Christmas on Barry Island, that's what. Ten years since we left the fab four - Gavin, Stacey, Nessa and Smithy - on the Welsh seafront, they're back with a festive special that will have you cackling over your Christmas pudding and blubbing into your Babycham. Probably at the same time.

Rob Brydon: 'James Corden lost his way for a bit.'

The Welsh actor-comedian returns to Barry this year in the much-anticipated Gavin & Stacey Christmas special. He talks to Alexandra Pollard about Bryn's sexuality, his James Corden intervention, and why there's no point complaining when things aren't fair.
