So, what can you expect from the new series? Most significantly, Gavin starts a new job in Cardiff. Yes - that Cardiff. Near Barry. In Wales. And, for the first time, the sun comes out on the happy families, which means they all get to go down the beach. It's also likely to be the final series of the show.
Here's Rob Brydon, who plays Uncle Bryn, with more:
The third series of Gavin & Stacey is back on ´óÏó´«Ã½ One. Hurrah! Tell us about it. What's new?
Nessa and Dave are living in Dave's caravan; Gavin's working in Cardiff and Bryn's delighted.
It must be nice having Gavin and Stacey living back in Barry. Uncle Bryn seems to have quite a soft spot for Gavin...
I think he's thrilled to have Gavin living across the road.
How do you feel about this series being the last ever one? Was it more exciting or emotional to film?
It was lovely to see everyone again. We were filming in the summer, which was unusual for us; we usually shoot up to Christmas so it was a different atmosphere in as much as the weather was nice. I felt a little sad, though, knowing that this was the last series.
Who will you miss working with the most?
I suppose I'd have to say Ruth, we've known each other for years and it's been lovely working so closely with her on the show and the spin-offs like the record for Comic Relief.
In one of the episodes we hear Bryn joins Gavin and Smithy for a lad's night out. Can you tell us about it?
Bryn goes out into Cardiff with the boys and tries to keep up with their pace. It doesn't go quite to plan.
Must have been fun having all the boys stay over?
Yes it must...
What is your favourite bit from the new series?
I haven't seen it but I loved Dawn and Pete renewing their vows.
We loved loved loved Uncle Bryn's version of the James Blunt classic. Any plans to sing in this series?
Maybe. Be sure to watch the first episode!
What would you like to think Uncle Bryn is doing in 10 years' time?
The same as he's doing now, but slower.
Now Gavin & Stacey is finished, what's next?
I'm on tour.
Please put us all out of our misery. Do we find out what happens on that fishing trip?
Your misery shall continue...
