Following the frankly ridiculous success seen by the risible Gavin and Stacey at the BAFTA presentation on Sunday, the improbably named Boyd Hilton - TV editor of Heat magazine (we’re scraping it here, chaps) told the BBC

“I think it won because it’s a well-observed, flat-out-funny show with a cast of funny and identifiable characters,” he told the BBC News website.

Hilton believes the success of Gavin and Stacey “is a justification for the channel all by itself”.

Eh?

Despite a the presence of a couple of Britain’s most talented comic actors (how strong are your drugs, Brydon?), it remains  pale and lifeless squib of a show, that tries too hard to be a cross between The Royle Family and, well The Royle Family.

We’ll look back on this one day and laugh… at how blind you all were.
