If you like the office... you guys should watch this tonight...
http://www.press.bbcamerica.com/press/programoverview.jsp?program_id=69Gavin & 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.
