As the nation gathers around its TV screens this Christmas to say goodbye to Gavin & Stacey for the very last time, Alex Jones relives the much-loved show's iconic music scenes - through behind-the-scenes-stories and the hit songs.

Barry Island Discs: Gavin & Stacey's Big Songs Send Off is an unmissable, heart-warming farewell celebration of one of the UK's biggest sitcoms of all time and a unique treat for fans of the show.

Discover why the songs were chosen, and the on set secrets behind the many hilarious moments of filming them.

Gavin & Stacey is about more than just the love story between two people, it’s about the joining of their two families, and the merging of cultures and different personalities. The soundtrack of Gavin & Stacey acts like a secret ingredient, uncovering hidden gems about the characters - making us laugh out loud or bringing a tear to our eyes. Or sometimes even both at the same time.

Whether it’s Smithy's big entrances including rapping to football anthem World in Motion, Uncle Bryn's motorway crooning, pensioner Doris singing an inappropriate The Smiths song at the family and friends' BBQ, or an unforgettable duet at a country-themed barn dance… the musical moments are magical, making you fall in love with Gavin, Stacey and their extended family even more.
