Media Reviews

It seems like every TV programme on the box is releasing a cash-in - sorry, we mean tie-in - book. But while the majority are cheaply put together, badly written and - frankly - dull, Gavin and Stacey: From Barry to Billericay is the work of James Corden and Ruth Jones and is just as funny and endearing as any episode...So, if you do find this in your stocking come Christmas morning, there's plenty to keep you entertained far beyond Boxing Day. Heat

The crew take you on a tour of their homes with diaries, Facebook pages, Smithy's Cruise, marry or shag quiz, Bryn's Top 10 Things To Do Before You Die ( send an email ) and top nights out in Billericay.***** Zoo
