My mother's name is Jetty. And no she is not a horse. She just has an unusual name.

What is the average life span for a horse?

Wow, she's gorgeous! Looks like she's taken to the girls already.

How do you pronounce Jutty?  Does it rhyme with "beauty"?  Like "you-tee"?

Yes, 'YOU-tee' that's it.

And if I had gotten 1 euro for every time her name got mentioned in our family, I probably could get her a new bridle already.  :)

Well,  the average is between 25 to 30 years old. The owner who gave her to me said that if I looked after her well and barring any diseases, I should be able to ride her for another 5 years. She's got good genes, her mother lived till she was 32 which is really old for a horse. The owner told me he thought she was still too good to retire and she loves riding. So that's what I'm going to do.

Gavin & Stacey premieres Tuesday, August 26, 8:40 p.m. ET/PT

Gavin is an ordinary boy from England, Stacey is an ordinary girl from Wales. The two are obsessed with each other, yet they’ve only ever spoken on the phone. They decide to make the journey to meet, but the peculiar personalities of their families and friends make it a rocky road to happiness. Their loved ones must learn to get along as their worlds collide and the relationship gets serious. Fortunately, their best friends - Nessa and Smithy - get along “exceptionally” well - they just have to be wasted first.

With engagingly quirky characters and no laugh track, the refreshing and accessible story captures the essence of modern romance.  As well as Jones (Nighty Night), as Nessa, and Corden (The History Boys), as Smithy, the UK original stars Joanna Page (Love Actually) as Stacey, Mathew Horne (The Catherine Tate Show) as Gavin, Alison Steadman (Life is Sweet) as Pamela and Rob Brydon (Little Britain) as Uncle Bryn.

Gavin & Stacey, produced by Steve Coogan’s (Alan Partridge, Saxondale) production company, Baby Cow, won ‘Best Comedy Performance’ (James Corden) and the ‘Sky+ Audience Award for Programme of the Year’ at this year’s BAFTAs.  It also picked up three British Comedy awards in 2007 for ‘Best New British Television Comedy (Scripted)’, ‘Best Male Comedy Newcomer’ (James Corden) and ‘Best Female Comedy Newcomer’ (Joanna Page).

Like another BBC AMERICA original The Office, Gavin & Stacey is set to be formatted by NBC.

Awww! I agree with Chrissi, she's a beautiful horse Fabienne! I wish I could be there to pet her, hug her and feed her a carrot and a sugar cube! :)

Congratulations on the new addition to your family! :D
