I think Jason reminded you of Asmongold, I had the same thought 😄
are you gonna watch the christmas specials!!
BTW that wedding song Jess is the song Jackie sings when answering the door to Jim lol "CHIIMMMEEEEEEE"
this programme does draw you in
beer in a uk church is standard lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bryn giving the letter in the car and reading really supported the choice she made, to choose him to walk her down the aisle. So sweet. Little detail. Snow Patrol is playing. Nessa made a joke a few episodes ago about "getting wankered to Snow Patrol" or something like that lol Very sweet. Something I realise about the engagements... Stacey is very endearing. Beautiful, heart on her sleeve. Funny and warm. (Much like you both). I would have asked her to marry me after a week lol Consider Gavin asked so soon. Perhaps a few or more were too eager and it didn't work out because, well, they weren't Gavin. Again, it makes the sentiment in the letter about "whoever the man is, is the luckiest an in the world" that more poignant.
"Can we find out now?" Lol 👀
Any chance you could release tomorrows episode a day early? lol it’s one of my favs!
This is the first time I've seen this series and I bloody love it so far!!
"fingers knows what he's doing" I should hope so with a nickname like that 🤣
You guys really need to do a reaction to The Vicar of Dibley. You would love it and it features a certain actor from Only Fools.
Mike thinks the brother looks like Zack "Asmondgold"? 😆 Nah Mike, Jason has all his teeth, short curly hair, isnt going bald and looks like he actually cleans his place 🤪
I wasn't even thinking of him. Totally different look and vibe to them. It was actually this stoner guy Cewpins I was thinking of
Same time next Wednesday, right? 🙏
The scene when Bryn reads the letter to Stacy is the best moment of the whole series for me, the way bryn gets choked up even reading it gets me every time
My young daughter (as the flower girl) holding hands with my Mom and Mother in law…..and then my beautiful bride….walked up the aisle to the same song….and with the same cadence where my wife came out at that perfect moment. It was about a year and a half after this episode aired, neither of us knew Gavin and Stacey existed. This scene gives me goosebumps. Cheers to love.
I just knew you guys would get emotional at the scene in the car with Stacey's late dad's letter 😭 how could you not?? It always gets to me too.. Dawn and Pete are something else! 😂
I'm so glad you decided to watch this series. It's 1 of my all time favourites
Ahh the fishing trip lol
Love this show, us Welsh are often portrayed as just dumb sheep shaggers. We're not dumb. Cymru am byth! 🐑
I like how you refuted the dumb allegations but not the sheep shagging one 😂
When they came to the chapel in an lined up above Jess and Mike I just thought - American Gavin and Stacey!
Iiiiiiiiiiii
XMAS SPECIALS GUYS! Very important to watch inbetween each season. They are vital to the show and story development.
You're a bit early, the Christmas special comes between s2 and 3, but yes important not to miss :)
I would have never watched this if it weren't for you guys reacting to it - always avoided it because of James Corden, but I've got to say I really enjoyed this first series! Thanks for opening my eyes to a great show. I look forward to series 2 :)
The scene with Stacey’s father’s note is so well written. Such a heartbreaker. 😢 you could tell Rob wasn’t acting much there, it was real emotion in his voice.
I love all the Lucy jokes.
Mike is so harsh on Jason, he's easily one of the more reasonable people on this show!
That scene between Uncle Bryn and Stacey in the car on their way to the church is so well written and acted. Gets me every time I watch it. xxx
Great reactions to a lovely show bit confused why people are asking them to keep reacting to the series...is there talk Mike and Jess dont wanna continue watching it ? Xx
Nah it’s the hot weather, people are hallucinating.
Marc Overmars is a former Dutch footballer who played for Arsenal
You're thinking of the end of Wayne's World 2, which is actually a reference to the iconic ending of the 1967 classic, The Graduate starring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft.
"The only church you'll ever get me inside is Charlotte". Did you guys have Charlotte Church in the USA? Well lass with the voice of an angel. Her mother was the inspiration for Nessas look
High Five
the fact gavin and stacey kinda look like what you’d imagine younger jess and mike too look like 🥺
Rob Brydon and Julia Davis (Dawn of Dawn and Pete) wrote and starred in an amazing anthology comedy called Human Remains; very dark but brilliant
How can Bryn be a big homophobe? It's never specifically addressed, but the fact Bryn is gay is repeatedly rammed down your throat. "He's a cracking looking lad."
I think the impression given is that he is gay but not "out". So he possibly feels a bit guilty about it himself. Of course I don't know what the writers had in mind, so this could be, to use a technical term, bollocks. But I've always seen his character as the old "confirmed bachelor" stereotype.
That Grease Medley scene is literally every UK family party from the 2000's
Do people not have the Grease Medley these days?!!
Shipman is the surname of the most prolific doctor killer of all time it is English folklore 👍
Has err...anyone introduced Mike and Jess to the very British pastime of....dogging? The activity of flashing your headlights that Dawn was talking about seemed to confuse them a bit.
They've seen that sketch from Peter Kays Car Share.
Good lord, you watch Asmongold?!
Nah, it was Cewpins I was thinking of
Assume you know that the Wayne's World bit you referenced was Mike Myers' doing a parody of Dustin Hoffman in the Graduate, right?
Keep em coming great reactions
Gavin and Stacey’s first dance was Million Love Songs… sung by a take that with Robbie Williams 😉
Gary Barlow’s voice is quite lovely in the song
Pam's also in a great old comedy british show called The Worst Week of my Life - she's totally different in it thuogh, but it's one of the funniest shows
It only gets better, love these characters
Dressed for a wedding but Mikes wearing black. Pour one out for the empty seat at the bar.
I'm a 47 year old man and I still bubble like a big baby during that scene in the car with the letter from Stacey's father!
Some context to the names mentioned: Harold Shipman and Fred West were both serial killers, making their surnames funny in a dark way. Marc Overmars was a football player. Charlotte Church is a Welsh singer.
Pete and Dawns surnames are also Sutcliffe haha
Julia David is great. I think you would love Nighty Night and Sally 4 Ever.
Sally 4 Ever is a great shout! And only 7 episodes so not a huge commitment. Also 'Camping' (Julia Davis, Steve Pemberton... 6 episodes)
Please stick with this show it's amazing and you'll keep loving it
The scene between Doris and Griff discussing the ‘unfortunate’ surnames is in reference to ‘West’ and ‘Shipman’ being the names of two notorious UK serial killers. Coincidentally so is Pete and Dawn’s surname ‘Sutcliffe’.
West,Shipman and Sutcliffe are Characters surnames in the show which also infamously are the surnames of British serial killers
Marc Overmars. A Dutch footballer who was playing for Arsenal on or just before this time.
if i may be pedantic, it was 7 years before this time lol
I never saw this when it came out, I had no idea how good it was. Strange as I was born in Barry and lived all my life in Essex. They've nailed both.
I only watched it for the first time a couple of years ago. It’s a great series
I've been really looking forward to this reaction
So this was different, Mike was being a prude not Jess lol
"I'm Captain Marc Overmars" - that's one they are definitely not going to get 🙂
The conversation between Doris and Griff really only works when you know who they’re referring to.
Bawling my eyes out at 7 in the morning fgs 😭
Guys like this comment if you want them to keep going with this and not take a break.
it simply must continue. S2 is a blast
Oh. What's occurin'?
West and Shipman are the surnames of serial 💀, if that wasn’t explained to you already ha
And not forgetting Pete (and Dawn) Sutcliffe. Peter Sutcliffe was another infamous serial killer.
Mike thinkin of asmond gold by anychance 😂
Rat King
Alright, how's it going , alright!
Alright Dave, how's it going, alright?
Looking forward to this as always! 😁You guys should take a look at reacting to “Him and Her”, it’s got a lot of familiars faces from other shows you’ve watched and it’s bloody hilarious!
One of the most underrated shows ever. Glad I still have it on DVD, as I've never seen it on any streaming.
Love this show 🧐
My favourite way to start a day!
