Fans have been eagerly awaiting the return of the show since co-creators James Corden and Ruth Jones announced in May that there would be one last episode airing on Christmas Day.
Since filming began in September, crowds of fans have been flocking to various locations in the Vale of Glamorgan to catch a glimpse of the stars, including Joanna Page and Ruth Jones. Emotions ran high as filming came to an end, with actress Alison Steadman, who plays Pam, Gavin’s mum, revealing that there were tears shed on the final night of shooting.
