Gavin and Stacey Finale Recap
The highly anticipated finale of Gavin and Stacey aired last night on BBC One, watched by a massive 12.3 million people. The episode was a perfect conclusion to the beloved sitcom, which has been entertaining audiences for years.
One of the biggest questions on everyone’s mind was whether Smithy would end up with Sonia or Nessa. In the end, it was clear that he had chosen Nessa all along. After ditching Sonia at the altar, Smithy ran off to find Nessa, who was already preparing to leave for Southampton docks.
The Final Proposal
In a heartwarming moment, Smithy got down on one knee and proposed to Nessa as she boarded her ship. Of course, she eventually said yes, and the episode ended with their reception at a local pub. The final montage was filmed on the very last day of production, making it an emotional and wonderful way to close out the series.

Melanie Walters, who plays Gwen, revealed that she had a secret boyfriend – Dave Coaches! In a hilarious moment, Gwen’s family were mortified when they discovered her true love. But Nessa, being the cool cat that she is, simply said “Alright, Dave?” and it was like nothing ever happened.
