Go behind the scenes of one of our most beloved TV shows with the funny and intimate memoir from the BAFTA award-winning writers James Corden and Ruth Jones. Their new book is full of revelations and never-before-heard stories behind the creation of ‘Gavin and Stacey’.

‘Gavin & Stacey’ is a TV series like no other. Now, for the first time, its creators tell the full extraordinary story of how they turned their little show into a full-on cultural phenomenon.

As they recount the rejection, obstacles and challenges they faced on the way to giving birth to their beloved comedy creation, Ruth and James also explore the flourishing of their own real-life friendship. While their now legendary on-screen characters Nessa and Smithy had a profound awkwardness to negotiate, Ruth and James forged a magical relationship of mutual support based also on a deep, shared sense of subversive fun.

In their incredible new memoir, When Gavin Met Stacey and Everything in Between, the duo detail what’s occurred every step of the way, from their tentative initial pitch to the emotionally overwhelming final day of filming.

Written with their inimitable style and humour, this one-of-a-kind book takes you behind-the-scenes of one of the most iconic and beloved TV shows in British history.
