Hilarious
Hilarious show. Closed captioning advised. Some of the actors are Welsh and difficult to understand. But still hillarious

Movie Review by Movie Addict (Gavin and Stacey)
One of the funniest series that have come out of Britain! Story is based on a young Britain man who dates a young lady from Wales and all their madcap adventures between themselves, their families and friends. I'm sure I'm not doing it justice with my description but take my word -- A MUST SEE - absolutely a riot! I think they could have continued this series for years but I believe the writers had other commitments. Very sad when it ending - I wanted it to go on and on.

Best Comedy, treat yourself
I have loved this series since it aired. Had it on my old IPOD, which is acting up... Decided best to get on DVD format. Fantastic James Cordon when he was an unknown in the USA. Classic amazing comedy!

funny, out there, interesting
i bought the whole series for a great price on the basis of other reviews. these characters are so different than every-day American characters that it made it interesting to watch. Parts were pretty gross, some definitely out there, and a few lines and scenes they could have left out - just didn't fit. If you're looking for something to watch you probably won't be disappointed. For those who may object, there are sexual references, etc. some a bit bizarre but not in your face the whole time.

Great value
A great DVD as usual love it could watch it all the time. They have a part where they make the Christmas special and it was great to watch all the characters and filming crew making it happen. A great buy.

Arrived early and in great condition
This was a somewhat hard to find item and I was leary that the dvd format might not work in the U.S. but everything is good to go. Shipped promptly and arrived earlier than I was quoted. Thanks so much!

Excellent!
My husband is from the UK and misses his English comedy. This series did not disappoint. The characters are so original. If you enjoyed Littlt Briton, you will like this.

Wonderful
You could probably make a pretty convincing argument that the very best sitcoms are those that limit themselves to 2 or 3 excellent series and then know when to stop (e.g. Fawlty Towers, The Office). Watching this third and final series of Gavin and Stacey it's hard not to go along with that theory. In fact it's hard not to think that the three series weren't conceived as a beautifully, hilariously wonderful trilogy right from the outset. I don't know if they were, but this series brings everything to a satisfying close in splendid fashion. It's as funny as the first series, as dramatic as the second, and gives us, the viewer, a perfect little 3-series package. (I know there's a Christmas special too, and if memory serves, that's great too - I've got it on order, so it should be with me soon!)

Gavin & Stacey Series 3 (DVD)
We had not seen this when the series was first on so bought it to catch up. It was excellent and we were not surprised as the rest of the series had been very good then. Hope they might be able to write and record more and keep the standard up

Lush
The whole 'Gavin & Stacey' thing is a phenomenon. It probably won't be seen again for many years in any medium. It's a bit like alchemy, with due respect to Mr. Corden & Ms. Jones. Bring together some normally inert (in this instance read 'somewhat obscure and unproven') elements; mix them in the right environment and you produce gold! The writing is spectacular - perfectly pitched and usually so understated that you can believe you were the only one that saw something funny (except for the other 20 million or so!) The acting benefits from the presence of the immense capabilities and experience of the likes of Larry Lamb and Alison Steadman, and all of the cast rise to that level. It was never going to be easy to a) follow on from the success of the first two series and the special, and b) to bring it to a satisfactory conclusion since this really was the last time. It is a DVD essential since it bears watching again, and again etc. Oh, and I do have a crush on Nessa, but then who doesn't?

Thank goodness for DVDs
I missed Gavin & Stacey when it was on TV but bought the first series on DVD because it was cheap. I'm so glad I did! I absolutely loved and, and immediately bought the rest of the DVDs. It just gets better and better, the only bad thing about series 3 is that its the last one! I have watched all 3 series 3 times over now and it is hilarious everytime. The characters and storyline have really grown and I am devastated there will be no more Gavin & Stacey!

Annoying icon on screen
Good series but a very annoying icon keeps appearing on the screen and I can't get rid of it so its very off putting. Have tried everything to get it off the screen but no luck.spoils the enjoyment of the programme.
