    2 out of 5 stars Big disappointment   June 15, 2008
    A. Nilsen (Kristiansand, Norway)
    2 out of 5 found this review helpful

    I have recently discovered modern British comedy, and I am a HUGE fan of comedies like Shameless, Phoenix Nights, Max and Paddy's road to nowhere, Extras and The office. This comedy was recommended to me based on my opinion on Shameless, which I think is the best TV-show ever. However, "Gavin and Stacey" doesn't even get close to any of the shows mentioned. To me, it seems "stiff", very "acted" and WAAY to sweet. The character Nessa is a bit funny, and rescues it from being a complete disaster, but in general I find the rest of the cast quite boring or even repulsive. (Couldn't stand the smiley doll Stacey.)I was very disappointed.

    4 out of 5 stars "Fags and weed, glue and speed, but I draws the line at crack!"   May 21, 2008

    Essex lad Gavin (Matthew Horne) falls in love with Welsh sweetheart Stacey (Joanna Page) after a brief work related telephone relationship. Stacey and her sarcastic chain smoking mate Nessa (writer Ruth Jones) head to London to meet Gavin and his fat mate Smithy (writer James Corden).

    Gavin and Stacey was actually a surprising joy when I eventually got around to watching it two years after everyone else as usual. I hate romantic comedies and anything twee but I found G&S quite sweet in a very amusing way. Gavin & Stacey themselves are a bit wet and the shows funniest characters are support. Jones is very funny as Nessa and Rob Brydon's Uncle Bryn raises a few laughs but the real star of the show is Smithy. Corden's drunken, foul mouthed everyman comes out with some genius lines ("Have you got any johnnies? I ain't going in there bareback!") and his drunken quiz hosting skills remind me of my local.

    5 out of 5 stars Naturally Funny   May 20, 2008
    Steve Horsfall ( author) (UK)
    9 out of 11 found this review helpful

    The whole basis of Gavin and Stacey is very simple but the script, characters and comic timing make it a classic. Like all good comedies every character has a part to play and each is so realistic that you feel that you know them from somewhere. Above all Rob Brydon is pure comic genius.
