"When we found out that the final episode of Gavin and Stacey was coming out, we wanted to do something to commemorate it.

“What better way to celebrate the final edition of Gavin and Stacey than to raise a glass of Barry Island Gin to toast the wedding maybe not the wedding-and our shop is just around the corner from Trinity Street."

Speaking in an interview with Chris Evans on his Virgin breakfast show which aired on Friday, Rob, who is known as the iconic Uncle Bryn, shared how he felt after reading the script, knowing it’s the last time they will “all be together”.

He explained: "It was a couple of months before the cast saw the script. I only saw it, we were on holiday, we were away, about a month ago.

"I read it. Oh, it’s so good."

Rob added: "Do you know what? I was moved to tears, because it’s emotional."

Starting this upcoming week (Monday, September 2), roads around Barry will be closed to the public as filming goes ahead for the final episode.

That includes Trinity Street - home of Stacey's mum Gwen, and Laburnam Way, famous for being the place that doubles up as Essex - home to Gavin's mum and dad Mick and Pam.
