Gavin and Stacey stars donned their classic costumes as they were pictured on set at Barry Island for “one last time” earlier this week.

The BBC announced on Monday 2 September that filming had got under way for the sitcom’s last episode, which will air on Christmas Day this year.

Co-creator James Corden, who plays Smithy in the series, posted a photo to Instagram on Tuesday that appeared to show Joanna Page and Ruth Jones facing away from the camera in front of O’Shea’s Fish & Chip Cafe in character as Stacey and Nessa.

Zios Gelateria Barry also shared footage of the cast behind the counter of their shop in costume.
