'Gavin & Stacey 3' will be final series

Gavin & Stacey co-creator James Corden has revealed that the show will end after the next series.

The BBC sitcom, starring Mathew Horne and Joanna Page, is due to return this year for a third series.

Speaking to BBC Radio 4, Corden said he and Ruth Jones would not revive it beyond series three, adding, "We might need some money. But the way it's looking at the moment, no."

Corden also dismissed speculation for any future specials of the show, despite the Christmas episode achieving high ratings.

The show's characters Vanessa Jenkins and Bryn West - aka actors Ruth Jones and Rob Brydon - are currently number one in the UK singles chart.
