Gavin and Stacey S1 Ep2 REACTION!

Comments

I remember when you could buy a platform ticket, where you could go onto the platform to see off loved ones ☺️

Esther

Sherlock is perfect, I remember recommending it you a year or two back...but nobody does it on YouTube. I think you'd gain a great audience even here on patreon

Cain Culley

Lmao I didn’t know you knew about ronnie Pickering do you know who I am I’m fucking ronnie Pickering

Adam

Sadly you may miss some of the jokes, the one about dating the boss from Harrods, refers to Muhammed al Fayed, he palmed him off to his son (Dodi Al Fayed) he was Princess Diana's boyfriend who died with her in the car crash in Paris. Hence she hasn't heard from him in a while.

John

This is random you may have been told but I watched a trailer for a documentary called Depp vs Herd about their court case you and queen boomer were featured in the trailer.

Rembrandt Le Beau Von Goethe De Wolfe

Thats a shame boomer, i watch your videos for YOU. YOUR reactions, not the crybabies in the comments

Jordan D

G&S is AMAZING, British comedy is a wide spectrum, the 'drama' aspect makes it brilliant, you find yourself emotional and laughing your arse off too. I hope Boomer sticks with it, constant laughs is boring anyway, you need set up, emotion, drama... even Peep Show, Inbetweeners, the Office etc share this but obviously slightly less

Jordan D

Random one.. Boomer needs to try a full english breakfast, WITH black pudding 😍😍

Jordan D

agree, just dont watch stuff you dont like, i like top gear but clarkson fans act like him, spoilt brats.

Aidan McGarrigle

You'll Love Gavins Parents Mick and Pam. Pam is your typical Essex wife, nice women but very over dramatic about everything and Mick is the sensible straight talking one and I consider him to be The Hero of the group in this show because he always has a good answer for everything.

Tone Grumbt

Yes Royle Family is one of my faves I’ve never recommended it to KB because it’s not laugh out loud much, but neither is G&S so if he likes this he will probably like Royle Family too!

JJ M

I don’t understand the G&S hatred. There is a tonne of stuff on this channel that I won’t watch but I’m not being a cry baby. People really need to grow up

Lauren Massey

Worst week of my life is very underrated I agree

Paul

Doris will have you laughing big style. Dawn and Pete’s relationship is a funny one too. Stick with it KB

Paul

Erm... That's the point of Patreon we suggest stuff KB decides or does a poll

Richard Stokes

Yeah bits of it are dark made darker by Shane Meadows ability to convey things in such an impactful way. But it has a bit of everything. For me it's very authentic in capturing the feel in this country in the 80s

Richard Stokes

Yeh id say in terms on comedy humour its similar to inbetweeners not close like but thats why I think boomer will love it

Craig Burns

It was in the last poll but was surprised how low it ranked in the votes. I woild love to see it on here too.

Mackem

Yeah I just don't get it! Gavin & Stacey isn't one of my favourites, but it's a cult classic uk show, that you 'had' to watch at some point, then you also held a poll where it wasn't just popular, it was THE most voted for

ryung246

Let the man decide his own shows to watch hes not a puppet you bunch of muppets!

Theloyalmuppet

Thats unfortunate to hear, I think all the dumbfucks who are crying need to shut the fuck up and find something better todo with their day but Clarksons farm is genuinely a great show and I think you would love it. It's also a show that doesn't get many reactions and I have been hoping you'd do it eventually.

SnakeYikes

🤣🤣 true

Miss_dash

With the way Clarkson fans have been coming to the Gavin and Stacey reactions (which won the poll) just to whine and moan, absolutely not.

Brian Moran

Watch clarkeons farm

Everton FC 🔷◽️🔷

Tbf this is the tv show that made everyone love Cordon, wasn't till later he became a douche

JustJack

Yeah someone already told me

R Lawrence

I think he said he'd rather eat a knob at night than first thing in the morning

Alex P

Happy Valley is amazing

TravellingBlade

I'll tell you how it came to this... it was the TOP VOTE IN THE POLL!!!

Brian Moran

There’s a difference between the man and the character. Corden the man is, by all accounts a complete knob. Smithy the character is great. Michael Jackson is the king of pop. Not the best choice to babysit your kids (allegedly)

Chris Halsall

I could name 200 British shows that are better than this!

BigChanChan

This muppet decided to watch this, and said he had zero interest in Clarksons farm, the show that broke amazons viewing figures...... How have we come to this madness

CONALL MCLAUGHLIN

Gavin and Stacy is only 20 episodes

Julian T

Think ad rather eat a nob at night than watch corden as someone wise once said!!!

Theloyalmuppet

Nice one thank you.. shan’t recommend anything else on here as there are chats specifically for that. Gavin and Stacey was always funny.. love Rob Brydon and the old woman the best.. those two are hilarious at times 🙏

MarkC

Yeah I've never re-watched the series but from memory it was excellent, albeit quite dark at times. No spoilers but I specifically remember the storylines about Lol and (I think) her sister, as well as Milky & Combo being particularly tragic

ryung246

Gavin & stacey is incredible dont listen to the haters

Neil Parker

I second the This is England series shout

Richard Stokes

Corden does my tits in, but he’s bearable in this. I find it hilarious how much division and uproar he causes though I’m all for it

Jonroon93

All of those and I’d add The Fall

Jonroon93

Your comments re. Luther & Sherlock made me think of 'This is England' so I've just finished your 'This is England' movie reaction and would love to see you get to the TV series at some point! Not necessarily anytime soon as I personally love coming to this channel for a laugh, but there's without question tons of great dramas you could react to: Black Mirror Broadchurch Hustle Life on Mars / Ashes to Ashes Line of duty Luther Peaky Blinders SAS: Rogue Heroes Sherlock The north water This is England '86, '88, '90

ryung246

I can support Luther also Happy Valley as I think Comedy TV series and Gangster movies are great but man can't live by comedy and organised crime alone so I'm all for mixing it up. That said, unlike others I don't hate James Cordon, I am able to separate the art from the personality but the main issue for me with Gavin and Stacey is that it overstayed its welcome by around 5 seasons and the thought of having great shows like Brassic, Cuckoo, Home, Mum and others cockblocked by 70 odd episodes of this for the next year or so is a worry.

Jason Bonner

I always thought of this when hearing "What's in the box!!!" Never saw the film that everyone else thinks of.

Joe Thornhill

All the laughing you've ever done and it was the third dial-up "Blup" that woke Jane up, lol.

Joe Thornhill

Been waiting for this!

Harry Brown

The internet would be that fast it was filmed 2007

mav

As an amateur charity quiz writer/host myself, that scene in the pub was PAINFUL to watch!

David Lyons

Personally I liked her way more in 'The Worst Week of My Life' (highly underrated show, incidentally!) than G&S, find her character's behaviour irritating at times here!

David Lyons

Ah the good old days downloading, by the time you could see her tits youd lost interest

Johnnyenglish

lol. True.

Doug Farrington

Gavin and Stacey is good fun, there are making a new Christmas special right now and the fans are going mental, Gavin’s mum is amazing she’s off her head I can relate to her 😂 . Exactly , I think fresh meat is pretty mediocre so I just don’t watch I’m not going to moan about it. Humour is in the ear of the beholder people 😂. Luther is very good, Happy Valley is even better 😀. In the uk we call people like that security bloke a JOBSWORTH 😂

Erica

Fun Fact Some of the main families have surnames that are named after British serial killers. Gavins are the Shipman’s (Harold Shipman) Stacy’s are the Wests (Fred & Rose West) Then Dawn & Pete Sutcliffe (Peter Sutcliffe) I’m sure it’s already been mentioned but I’m not reading all the comments 🤣

Stephen Prothero

Oh ok yeah ...Good thing you said...that was the finishing point of the joke, I forgot about that part of it completely.

R Lawrence

He's the one who was in the car with Diana, that's why Nessa never heard from him again... kinda dark reference

Chaitra

I am always up for rewatching Luther. Amazing show, up there with The Wire for me!

Steve G

A shame but I understand

James Steel

And the Leicester thing is they thought it would be another Gary Lineker (football player) question because he was born there but he changed it to "mass-murderer" when they moaned....

R Lawrence

The joke where nessa said I called him on his boat and said "back off" was an apparent reference to the owner of the big London shop Harrods, the billionaire Muhammad Al-fayed, thats why she said "the big boss like". And then she referred to his son but I don't know anything about him, though he might have dated princess Diana once I'm not sure.

R Lawrence

I've never had an American muppet get me all excited by something he's said before but when you mentioned reacting to I Claudius........

Wolfie-Smith the Game Cub

100%

Ryan

It's a long drive from Essex to Barry island in south Wales and the Bridge is either the severn bridge or the Prince of Wales bridge.

David Marriott-Hallam

Been waiting for this, purely for the comments. It’s a decent show, think the negativity it gets is way over the top to be honest…

Lee

That episode ending was so over the top that it lost a lot of its comedy value imo. It didn't add up and wasn't even close to realistic. It could be said that already Gavin and Stacey has Jumped the Shark

Yaapsdad

Gavin's mum is played by the brilliant actress Alison Steadman. She's been in many different things throughout a long career. Possibly best known for the great comedy drama Abigail's Party, directed by her ex husband Mike Leigh, a master of awkward British family relationship comedies

Yaapsdad

She doesn’t have time at the moment.

Brian Moran

Leicester may be the birth place of Jack the ripper. But as no one knows his true identity then possibly not.

Yaapsdad

You should really get QB in on this one. Its love story comedy drama. I think youll enjoy it more with her on your wing. You are only 2 episodes in. She can catch up. Bring her in for EP 3. Seriously.

James Steel

still with it , even thou james is a dick in real life, im trying hard , will try to keep going.

Jed Baker

So glad you now know the characters Pete & Dawn 😆

Paul Draper

Luther is great. So is line of duty. Regarding Gavin and Stacey there are alot of UK references in this show so there are like hidden jems of comedy for a UK audience. Just like in the quiz they reference alot of UK serial killers. Also the part where ness mentioned the son she dated, she is talking about the guy that is the son of the owner of Harrods that died with princess Diana in that crash. That's why she said she never heard from him again. I think you didn't get that judging by your reaction. But keep watching there are somw really funny moments in this show

Andy H

Hey KB. You love history and David Mitchell. You should get a copy of his irreverent, funny and informative book on the history of royalty in England. It's called Unruly

Yaapsdad

Can you add Brassic to your next show poll I think the comedy in that you will like

Craig Burns

Not that I’m watching but 51 comments in 4hrs 🤣

Graham Goldberg

That last sentence is open to interpretation.

Z is for Zed

I'm here for the comment section, good show tho

Caine

Gavin and Stacey is far better than Benidorm. Consistent characters throughout. And despite not being a belly laugh show, is funny is a heartwarming sort of way. And does have its hilarious moments. Bryn and Nessa are gold.

Mike Currie

Didnt!

Theloyalmuppet

At the end of the day your going to react to some things that ain't to some peoples taste so if they don't like James cordon don't watch your reaction simple as that

Adam Dowman

Sherlock is so goood

Craig Day

Line of Duty, great drama and Happy Valley great drama

Louise Miller

Gavin’s mum is my favourite character in this show, I’ve known so many people like her which makes it funnier. Also, YES to Sherlock, I think you’d love that show!

Beth

I dunno I equally like em

Mark Jephson

Yeah I remember the dial-up modems in the 90s. In high school we’d download nude pics of Pamela Anderson in class. Never got past the tits before the teacher came.

Doug Farrington

Careful now!

Rebecca Musson

KB, ignore the comments just get on with watching the feckin show and make your own mind up. It is a comedy/drama leaning to the realistic situations (except for Nessa's fantasy stories). Ruth Jones, the co-writer plays Nessa. The premise of the show is what happens to a couple's families, friends and work-life when they get involved in a relationship.

Fordy7169

Great episode love gavs mum cracks me up

Dango247

Sorry K&Q boomer like the the show at start but cant stand james corden!! Especially after cats the musical and his arrogance! Love your reactions though! Lol yourloyalmuppet

Theloyalmuppet

I'm not an expert on what makes great comedy, but I think both Gavin & Stacey and Spaced are the type of British comedy that doesn't rely on constant one liners to get laughs (although I do think Spaced has more laugh out loud moments). The humour is built on characters' mannerisms and situations which can be subtle and relatable, and doesn't always appeal to people who just want a laugh a minute. I think that's why there's generally a few people saying these kinds of shows are not funny, because it's simply not how they want their comedy. It's all subjective I guess. Just my two penneth.

Jay

KB, I hope you continue just simply because you will appreciate more and more the subtleties. Nonetheless, the James Corden hate is real, and it blinds people to this being a decent show. I used to loathe the guy (without doing any research, and not that I know him at all) just for how he has treated serving staff. If it helps anyone see a different perspective, I just read Jimmy Carr’s book, and he went out his way to say that Corden was the only person who called him to see how he was after he was publically shamed for tax avoidance. He called him every day for weeks. It got me thinking that maybe he’s a privately great guy who has been a massive tit many times. I know If I was judged for the most arrogant, awful, and obnoxious things I’d ever said, I wouldn’t be married for a start 😂😂

Greg Moakes

James Corden and other cast members seen filming in recent weeks in Cardiff, and nearby Penarth and Barry Island, presumably for their Christmas Special. 👍

South Coast Rich

Sherlock is so good, you'll love it

Rebecca Musson

Oh yes, KB would love the Royle Family, it's a belter

Bikeaholic

Another good old show us steptoe and son, Think ud like it 🙏

Daniel Colton

On the subject of serious drama, Luther is way better than Sherlock. You should check out The Night Manager, if you want to see a different side to Hugh Laurie’s acting. Amazing show, 6 episodes.

Julian T

Boo! Down with this sort of thing.

AdamMcAdamface

Gavin and Stacey is not for big laughs. It's more subtle. It's a realistic view into UK families and dry humour. Most people watch it as a comfort show.

Nickerz

Gavin and Stacey is definitely not a drama.. or like a soap!

Beccy

Boomer barely had a proper laugh two eps in, brutal

zStarr

The actor who played Pete was also in Plebs, playing Claudius who worked at the desk at the grain company where Stylax and Marcus worked too.

Mackem

I'm just here to be part of the 400 😁

David fallows

This and the inbetweeners have amazing soundtracks

Jake D

Ooh also I realise not knowing all the british celebrities you might not have noticed but the running joke with Nessa is despite her small-town appearance that she's been involved in some way with almost all of them and had every kind of important job, but you never see any evidence of that other than the stories she and other characters casually mention. It's not even like a Jay thing where she's a liar, other characters will back it up.

Rach

I’d rather watch Dave Lee Travis play Macbeth.

Martin N

I like to think of myself as a friendly and patient person BUT everyone I know is fully aware that if I'm on the phone, they need to btfo! So I totally understand your point! xD

Fyrealis

Oooh I’ve got my popcorn ready for the comments 🍿

Beth

Pete and Dawn are brilliant characters, perfectly capture the awkwardness of hanging out with an arguing couple.

Rach

Crikey, yeah I never realised that until now. The daughter of Myra Hindley lives in my town. They changed her surname slightly.

Tim Phillipson

Absolutely 💯 brilliant series!!! Oh mush!!! Was occurring? 😂

Benji

Peaky Blinders is a great drama if you haven't seen it already.

Michael Fazakerley

Have to give Alison Steadman ( Gavs mother ) a shout out in this, she is a comedy royalty and a national treasure, she is good in everything

Mark Jephson

The Royle Family is brilliant!

Michael Fazakerley

Both Gavin and Stacey’s families surnames are the same as famous British serial killers as are their friends that were arguing in this Stacey West (named after Fred and Rose West) Gavin Shipman (named after Harold Shipman) Dawn and Peter Sutcliffe (Peter Sutcliffe was the Yorkshire Ripper - different from Jack) So you know some more now. It couldn’t be Jack the Ripper as nobody knows who he was (he might have been born in Leicester but nobody knows). The joke there was that the answer to every question had the answer Gary Lineker and he’s famously from Leicester

Kieran B

Never in a million years! Each to their own and everything - and I know plenty of people who love this show - but Peter Kay's shows, for me at least (and most people I know) , are way ahead!

muu041

They are currently filming the Christmas special for gavin n Stacey now

Michael Oliver

The Harrods boss’ son who Nessa hadn’t heard from in years died in the crash with Princess Diana as they were dating at the time…

Kieran B

And cue the 'I hate James Cordon' fan club....

Mike Currie

Completely agree, especially Jim

Mackem

This is better than anything Peter Kay is in

Baswell

i know you would love royal family (not that one). just a family sitting down watching tv but its very good and funny

ObtuseZeus

Expect a visit from the BIG MAN!

Graham Rodgers

lets see how many ACTUALLY left forever or were just crying on the internet needlessly

Dairychoco

Yay. THE BEST SHOW EVER MADE

Jamie
