Fans can see a glimpse of Stacey in the rickshaw in the Gavin & Stacey trailer, which has been released ahead of the Christmas special. Joanna has also revealed the hilarious story of when she first read Gavin & Stacey: The Finale script.

Ahead of the finale on Christmas day, Joanna revealed she first read the script for the final episode in an unlikely location. When asked how it felt when she received the final script and what was her initial reaction, she said: "It was really exciting when I received the script. I was driving home from another job and I pulled into the services.

"I was standing and waiting at the counter for a burger, and I looked down at my phone and suddenly it came up and I thought, oh my God, I've got this thing on my phone which loads of people here in the service station would love to see! I got in the car and ate my burger and read the first half of the script. Then I thought, I better move on to another services before I get a parking fine.

"So I drove on to the next services, and then I carried on reading the rest of the script. I was just voice noting Ruth [Jones], who was sending messages to James [Corden] with me, going, 'Oh my god, I can't believe this!' and 'Oh my god, I can't believe that!'".
