Ever since the 2020 Christmas special of Gavin and Stacey, fans have been desperate to know if more episodes are on the cards. Although a new series is yet to be announced, writer Ruth Jones recently gave the latest update on her and co-writer James Corden's working together again.
Speaking to the Sunday Telegraph's Stella magazine, she said: "James and I did Zoom a few times. But we didn't do any writing. In fact, I remember us both saying how uncreative we both felt. And since then we've not even mentioned work, just talked about the family and how we're feeling. It does seem like a waste doesn't it, not to have spent all those lockdown hours writing? But I just couldn't get into the groove." The actress, who played Nessa in the comedy, also revealed that she and James will be working on a project together in the future, explaining: "It may not be Gavin and Stacey. But it'll be something."
