Synopsis

For the first time, go behind the scenes of the beloved TV show Gavin and Stacey with this must-read memoir from the BAFTA award-winning writers Ruth Jones and James Corden.

When Gavin Met Stacey and Everything in Between is the story of how Ruth and James turned their little show about ordinary life into a full-on cultural phenomenon.

As they recount the highs and lows they faced along the way, Ruth and James explore the journey of their real-life friendship, the making of the show and the relationship between Nessa and Smithy that had the nation glued to their screens.

Full of revelations and anecdotes to working scripts and never-before-seen photographs including:

The story behind Nessa’s iconic look
The original treatment for the show
And maybe pictures from that fishing trip…

This one-of-a kind memoir takes you behind the scenes of one of the most iconic and beloved shows in British television history. Here are the details of what’s occurred every step of the way, from initial pitch to final day of filming, and all the love that followed.

When Gavin Met Stacey and Everything in Between is the perfect final chapter in this incredible story. Essential reading for all Gavin and Stacey fans.
