During the live show, Ruth, 58, who plays Nessa Jenkins, left the cast in stitches as she swore while reciting one of the lines from the series.

Speaking to Alison Steadman, who plays Pam, Ruth said: ‘Alison, I remember you were sitting on the beach with the lovely Margaret John and you were both there with your sun hats on.

‘It was so much fun and she had that line when Mick took off his top and she said, “Oh, you’re lucky, Pam!”

‘Can I say b**** on a radio show? Probably not. Sorry, my apologies!’

James joked: “I don’t think so. I think we were just told that you are officially not allowed to say that.’

Ruth said, “My apologies!”

Fans of Gavin and Stacey declared that they wished the stars were on the show ‘every day’.

During the show, James and Ruth revealed secrets about the upcoming finale, shared some of their favorite memories from the series and discussed all things festive.

And fans of Gavin and Stacey were clearly loving the cast’s radio work as they rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their joy at hearing the actors on air in the morning.

They wrote: ‘Loving the cast of Gavin and Stacey on @BBCRadio2 this morning. Later today I’m going home to the valleys, and it makes me all the more giddy. Correctly!!

‘#Gavinandstacey taking over the #BBCRadio2 breakfast show is ICONIC! I love it.’

‘Merry Christmas Ruth & James, woke up early this morning to listen to you! I’ve seen Gavin & Stacey from the beginning and can’t wait to see the finale

‘The #Gavinandstacey crew should be on every breakfast show……. Hilarious and brilliant.’

‘I would love to wake up to Ruth Jones every morning! #Gavinandstacey #BBCradiotwo A treat I didn’t expect.”

James and Ruth were joined by Joanna Page, Mat Horne, Rob Brydon, Alison Steadman, Larry Lamb and Rob Wilfort for the three-hour special.

The supposed ‘last ever’ episode will air in a 90-minute special on Christmas Day this year, after fans of the show begged for an end to the story.

It comes after James and Ruth revealed that Gavin & Stacey fans will be treated to a lot more Smithy and Nessa in the final episode, musing that their characters’ ‘messy’ relationship is the beating heart of the BBC show.

Appears on the podcast Table manners Featuring Jessie and Lennie Ware, the actors and writing partners teased the Christmas special, saying fans will learn a lot more about Ruth’s character Nessa’s past and her future with Smithy.

“Nessa has had an incredibly eventful life and you’ll find out more about that in this special – some really fun pieces we’ve written,” James explained.

He mused that the reason fans have taken Smithy and Nessa to their hearts is because ‘ohOn television or in movies you rarely see people who look like Ruth and me falling in love.’

‘You just don’t do that. I’d hand the TV over to Hugh Grant in Bridget Jones and Ruth, like working on a newsstand when someone buys a newspaper.’

‘What I love about the show is that it’s so messy and complicated and they just have fantastic sex. I really enjoy that confidence.’

However, Ruth added that the writer’s partners weren’t sure how to pitch the unique relationship at first, explaining:

“The first time they had sex was in the very first episode and I think because we didn’t really know what the show was, we probably had quite a sitcom story about it.”

‘We were there, just the two of us, on that road that had meant so much to us and I, like Ruth, looked at my dear friend James and when I said, ‘I loved you with all my heart’, it was me say to you [James]’, Ruth remembers.

Despite the pair now promising that the upcoming special is actually the finale, there has been a wave of speculation among fans that there could be more to come.

However, James is adamant that this is it, issuing an ominous warning to viewers as she said: ‘It cannot continue. When you see it, you know it.’

The pair aren’t saying no to working together again, with James promising: “We don’t know if we have another idea in us, but I can honestly say that if we didn’t try to explore the idea of ​​writing together, I would be so disappointed.”
