Read our privacy policy One of the biggest mysteries running through Gavin And Stacey, what happened during Uncle Bryn and Jason’s infamous fishing trip, may finally be revealed in the show’s Christmas special. One character, likely to be Gwen, Stacey’s mum, is at the end of her tether, exclaiming: “Thirty years ago you two went on a fishing trip that almost tore this family apart.” It seems fans may finally find out why. The hit TV series aired between 2007 and 2010, and returned in 2019 with a one-off festive special that ended on a cliffhanger, when Nessa proposed to James Corden’s character Neil “Smithy” Smith. Stacey’s uncle, Bryn, and his nephew, Jason, allude to the events of the “fishing trip” during the series, but all viewers know is that the two men were close before the incident and rarely spoke after it.
