gavin & stacey
bullet::::- gavin shipman (mathew horne) - gavin is 28 when the series starts. he is an only child, and when the series starts he still lives with his loving mother and father in billericay, essex. he works for a company called icb and spends his spare time with his best friend smithy along with his other friends gary & simon, dirtbox, fingers, budgie, swede, chinese alan and jesus. he is a big fan of tottenham hotspur (as is mathew horne) and is often seen wearing his spurs shirt. in the course of his job, he had to deal with a company called bedmores, based in barry. the bedmores representative he had to correspond with was a woman called stacey west. the pair found they got on very well and after months of talking and flirting, they decided to meet in london. they agreed that gavin would bring his best friend smithy, and stacey would bring her best friend nessa. they met up, went clubbing and had sex. when stacey and nessa boarded the coach back to wales, gavin took a taxi home, jumped in his car and drove all the way to barry, and met stacey when her coach arrived in barry. the two quickly told each other that they were in love and, within 9 weeks, they had gotten engaged and married. gavin, and his father mick, often play the "straight men" in the series, baffled and frustrated by the antics of their family and friends. gavin's main personality flaw is that he is slightly spoiled, possibly due to being an only child, and gets irritated when he does not get his way. he is not always very sensitive; when stacey, who is very attached to her hometown, gets depressed and homesick upon moving to billericay, gavin is more confused than concerned. gavin is also less willing to discuss his private life than his wife. he finds it odd that stacey is so eager and ready to spill intimate details to nessa, bryn, her mother and her brother. despite these differences, gavin loves stacey enormously, demonstrating this by finding a job in wales so he can move to barry, despite previously expressing a dislike for it. in series 3, he agrees with stacey to try to have a baby, only to discover she had not been on the pill for a year. although he is very angry about stacey not telling him the truth, he becomes much more depressed when he learns that he has fertility problems. eventually he comes round, and has a serious discussion with stacey, deciding they will carry on trying to conceive for a few months, and they should start looking at alternatives afterwards. however, in the final episode, stacey discovers she is pregnant, and gavin is just as thrilled as she is.
