The Bassett Bar in Barry hosted a watch-along party for the finale of Gavin and Stacey on Christmas Day.

The bar was a filming location for the show, in which it was known as 'The Dolphin'.

The show ran its final episode on Christmas day and many people across the country tuned in from their sofas at home.

However, for some in Barry it was the opportunity to watch along in one of the filming locations itself - the Bassett Bar. 

The Bassett Bar was used in the penultimate episode, 5 years ago, in 2019 for a Christmas special.

The merry pub-goers at the Bassett Bar on Christmas Day are seen clapping as the credits roll on their beloved sitcom.

The final episode of Gavin And Stacey gripped viewers as characters Smithy and Nessa finally got their happy ending, five years on from the Christmas proposal cliff hanger.

The episode comes after Nessa, played by Ruth Jones, got down on one knee to confess her love for Smithy in the special which aired in 2019).

After a famous on-off relationship, Smithy proposes to Nessa and the final scene of the Finale features a heart warming montage of a low-key wedding, with Nessa sporting a black dress and the pair finally getting their happily ever after. Tidy!
