Dawn said she knows him from the butchers. That's why after Pete said he's a work colleague, Bryn says "I never knew you were a butcher Pete!"
Despite him being a Quantity Surveyor I believe (she says it on the quiz episode)

This is correct. But also king boomer is also correct by saying Peter Townsend was in a relationship with Princess margaret just not the same one they were referring to as you pointed out 😂

No offense but that sounded as up to date as Bryn normally is with technology😂

Corfu is wonderful. It depends what part you go to. I lived there for three years. It's also on the west side I'm part of the same group of islands of Zakynthos. I have heard Mykonos is awful as well.

I'm glad you finally mentioned Mick (Gavin's Dad) and in the next episode he is once again the hero of the group as I call him.

The reason why you didn't quite catch what Pete and Dawn said about Seth is becuase they said two different things, Pete said he is a work colleague and Dawn said she knows him from her work place, they do this a lot in this show, two characters will say two different things at once. And yes it has got me rewinding a few times while putting the subtitles on.

Pete Townsend from The Who was caught buying Child P*rn online and when questioned he said it was a study he was doing for a book to see how easy it was to buy.
Pete and Dawn are organising to have a threesome to spice up their marriage

You know, I haven't tried learning a language but I do play guitar and I think it's all the same.
Imagine you're a baby again. Start gradually with easy stuff for like half an hour to an hour every day, persist for 2-3 years and you'll get anything done. Especially with languages, try to consume yourself in that language as much as you can until it becomes the norm or second nature. Our brain might be more developed now but it still didn't take us only a year to learn to speak read and write our native tongues properly when we were toddlers.

@Adam Thanks for this. Reading into it, Pete explains that he signed up to a site and cancelled immediately, on the basis of trying to prove a link between Russian child exploitation sites and UK Banks. The police found no evidence of him viewing or downloading any of the material, but he was arrested simply by paying for that service. To be honest it was a rather dumb thing to do, but as I've always admired him as a musician, its good to know that he's still a decent guy.

It feels like you're starting to warm up to Gavin and Stacey KB. The great thing about this show is that while it's not always laugh out loud funny, you get completely wrapped up in the two family dynamics.
With regards to places in Greece, I have to defend Corfu. It has a bad reputation because the Southern part has been completely taken over by tourism unfortunately, but there's parts of Central and Northern Corfu which as still unspoiled and absolutely beautiful.

in this series we get Smithy in a West Ham United shirt King Boomer, think it is only responsible of me as a Hammer ⚒️ to point this out in case you ever look in to English football! (was also the team in Green Street who that lot followed) with Elijah Wood singing our song, I'm forever bubbles in it at the end, incidentally which is a American song! not many people know that

The Peter Townsend you were referring to King Boomer was born in 1914 , and was an officer in the British Royal Air Force and was linked romantically with Princess Margaret for a time I think. He never joined 'The Who' though , that was, and is, Pete Townshend. 👍

Princess Margaret was involved with a Peter Townsend in the late 40's/50's. He was in the military but married someone else and got divorced. He proposed to Margaret but the Church, Govt and the Royals disapproved on the grounds he was a divorcee so it didn't happen. Nessa was taking about the rock star Pete Townshend of The Who who emerged in the 1960's and subsequently was accused of accessing 'dodgy images of minors' as research for a 'book' he was writing which has never come out. Nessa refers to this.

that's a different Pete Townsend, Nessa was talking about the guitarist from The Who, the band The Who, you know Pinball Wizard etc...

He didn't really get let off. He was on the register for years even though it was proven he never viewed anything illegal. Pete and a number of other people were involved in the plan to expose banks.

Always gets me when Pam compares the first day of her Honeymoon to Ann Frank being sent to a concentration camp lol. It's the little things that make the writing great in this. Nessa shaking everyone's hand 1 by 1, them all whispering the word 'black' while pointing at their faces, Stacey's look at her mum in the bathroom. Brilliant little moments.
