dailyrecord.co.uk:

Gavin and Stacey co-creator Ruth Jones has addressed a "glaring continuity error" from the show's 2019 Christmas special. Despite the episode's success, drawing in a staggering 18.49 million viewers, the highest for a non-sporting event in ten years and the leading comedy in 17, it wasn't without its flaws.Yesterday (December 25), as fans tuned into the final episode of the beloved BBC series, which topped the charts as the most-watched Christmas Day show, Ruth shared her own observation of a mishap from five years prior.Speaking to Magic Radio, Ruth admitted: "I watched the 2019 Christmas special the other night and I noticed a glaring continuity error.

You know Pam leaves the Christmas puddings behind and forgets to take them because they have been otherwise occupied and they are mortified?"She continued, highlighting the mix-up: "And Mick, being the calming force of the family, the voice of reason, says 'it's okay, we can go to a shop, there'll be one open'.

So they go to get them on the way to the pub. Then Bryn turns up and he's got the Morrisons bag with the Christmas puddings in, and I think there were nine of them for dinner."Then Jason arrives and he's stopped at the shop and he's picked up Christmas puddings as well.

So the next morning, when they haven't got the Christmas puddings, one of them, and I can't remember who it is, says 'have we left nine Christmas puddings in the pub?
