Amazing series
But what on Earth has caused smithy and Gavin to fall out for years now were best of mates now they don't speak to each other and on the modern version of this is your life Gavin wouldn't come on or even say anything about him for the show!!!

I mean ffs whatever had happened wipe the slate clean but doing what Gavin did well that's properly ended any possible reconciliation.
Such a shame

What did smithy do to make Gavin that pissed off with him to cut him out of his life. Or maybe he's found some religious cult

Why it's nothing about the tv series instead it is about them in real life.

I care slightly more about those two than I do about Jordan's odious life.




(but enough to bother posting, obviously)

They weren't really best mates though were they? I didn't think they had even met prior to the show.

The actors who play Gavin and smithy no longer speak to each other they suddenly stopped all contact and communication.
They had spent the previous three or four years with each other pretty much every single day with plenty of Tom foolery. The smithy actor even stated off screen they were best of friends then something ended it.

Does that make it clear for you?

No different to meeting people for the first time in uni. I've a number of what I'd call life long friends from uni. Sure lots were transient friends who I've probably not spoken to or contacted for nearly 15 years but those who I'd say were closer mates frequent contact

It does, now you've translated it into English...

Anyway, it's old news. I can find reference to it back in March 2010.

I'm just sat watching the Xmas special as it happens! Dunno what happened between the two off screen, but probably to do with just spending too much time together.

And did you know Corden was banging that Sheridan something-or-other, his on screen sister? Apparently they were at it on and off for most of the series'. Fair play to the man.

But off topic, and I know a lot of people don't like Corden for whatever reason, but i reckon it has got to be possibly the cleverest comedy to come out of any british writer for a lot of years, with some of the best acting coming from the two people that wrote it. :dons flameproof suit:!

Absolutely love Gavin and Stacey, had me crying with laughter on occasion, I won't lie to you. (See what I did there?) As for the falling out, I didn't even know they weren't talking until Corden's interview on Peirs Morgan's show, but reading between the lines it seems Corden became a massive cock for a time (which he readily admits to, to his credit) and maybe he just became totally impossible to deal with.

I've been in analogous situations in my past and to be fair I've ended up taking the same kind of actions as Mathew Horne, sometimes a relationship becomes toxic (whether professional or private) and you've just got to high tail it out of there for your own sanity.

It is possible that Horne will chill out enough to work with Corden for their mooted one-off Gavin and Stacey Christmas special at some point down the line.
