Gavin And Stacey: Q&A with Mathew Horne

The third series of Gavin And Stacey is back on Ö÷²¥´óÐã One. Hurrah! Tell us about it. What's new?

What's new? What's new? A lot is new actually... Including the introduction of a very exciting member of the Smith family!

And what about Gavin? What's been happening in his life?

Don't you mean what's been "occurin'"? There are many changes afoot for Gavin...

How is Gavin coping with the move to Wales?

Gavin has always coped pretty well with the Welsh.

Smithy was distraught when he found out best mate Gav was moving to Wales – do you think we'll be seeing Smithy upping sticks to Barry?

It may be an option when all the shower trays are sealed and all the tiles are regrouted in Essex.

How is Pam coping without her little Prince? Maybe the whole Shipman clan will relocate to Barry?

Pam is obviously devastated. She'd lost a limb (or an organ). Perhaps not enough of a loss to move to Wales though.

What's it like living so close to Uncle Bryn? He seems to have a bit of a thing for Gavin...

Does he? I hadn't noticed...

Gavin and Stacey have been married a while now... any plans to have a family?

I think both Gavin and Stacey are the family type, unlike me!

How do you feel about this series being the last ever one? Was it more exciting or emotional to film?

There were tears, yes. Mine because I tore the ligaments in my ankle two days before the end!

Who will you miss working with the most?

Alison. Legend in her own boots.

One of the episodes takes place on the beach. It must have been hard with all the crowds watching! Can you tell us any funny stories from filming?

I hid from the crowds and the sun in one of those little tent-type sun-breakers. I'm not good with crowds and sand.

Episode one is baby Neil's christening. Can you tell us about it?

His head gets wet.

At the end of the Christmas special we saw Smithy asking Nessa not to marry Dave – what's occurin' there then? Do you think Smithy is really in love with Nessa?

I think he's in love with himself first, Gav second and womankind third.

What is your favourite bit from the new series?

Bryn on the beach. It's extraordinary.

You and James recently appeared in your own Ö÷²¥´óÐã Three sketch show – do you have any plans to work together again?

We sure do and are currently, yes. Bit of a break, now it's back to work.

What would you like to think Gavin is doing in 10 years' time?

Speaking Welsh.

Now Gavin And Stacey is finished, what's next?

Marple. More Horne & Corden. And hopefully some sleep.
