Gavin & Stacey might have signed off for good with the 2024 Christmas special, but it will live on forever in the hearts of fans who sit down for endless re-watches and quote the series to their friends.

As an enduring comedy classic, it really is one of the most quotable TV shows there's ever been. Still keeping the spirit of our favourite Barry Island/Billericay favourites alive, Joanna Page has recently shared her top six lines from across the episodes.

Fans who haven't seen the clip of sharing her rankings will go wild when they do, and ones who have went into an excited frenzy. The actress's decisions could also be divisive, especially for die hard viewers who will definitely have strong opinions on their favourite lines.

Let us know what you think of Joanna's choices. Appearing on Magic FM, Joanna goes straight in with an absolute Pam classic, "It's all the drama Mick, I just love it!"

She says, "I want to go straight in and say that's my number one, but I won't allow myself to do that." The actress quickly decides, "I'm going to do that as my number two."

Right, so second place has been filled. What will come next? Straight away, she's shown a clip of the absolutely perfect scene that sees Smithy ordering an Indian takeaway.

"Chicken bhuna, lamb bhuna, prawn bhuna, mushroom rice, bag of chips, keema naan and nine poppadoms." It never gets old.

Of this line, Joanna says, "I've hear that one so many times. I'll give that one a four." She even shares that as well as hearing the line quoted on multiple occasions, she even once saw a man with it tattooed on his stomach.

Another one from Pam makes it's way into the top six, and this time it's, "I'm not being funny Stacey, but you want to get a life. What you said just now was really boring."

Joanna shares, "I really like all of Pam's quotes," as she places this one in third place, admitting to "holding out my number one for something big."

That number one spot is then immediately filled. Joanna offers the coveted position of best quote in the entire series to her own character and Stacey saying, appalled, "You're eating ham, Pam."

Giving a rationale, the actress says, "Stuff it, right, I'm putting that as number one. Because I never put myself as number one."

That leaves two spaces left in Joanna's top six Gavin & Stacey quotes of all time. Of course, there had to be one from Nessa in there, and she makes her way into the chart with, "I'll have a pint. Of wine."

Because who doesn't casually order pints of wine when they're out? Revealing her thoughts, Joanna says, "I now feel bad right, because I really like Nessa's one," indicating that she might've liked to place it higher.

The actress recalls watching Ruth Jones delivering that line as Nessa, and feeling "the weight behind it, and the heaviness and the solidness of just Ness."

This line of brilliance goes in at number five. That leaves one more spot, and the quote going in at number six comes from the absolute icon that is Doris.

Who will ever forget her turning to Gwen to announce, "Gwen, I'm absolutely t****ed"? Nobody, that's who.

Through laughter, Joanna says, "Oh, it's Doris! I think it's ok to be number six, because she does do a swear word."

Joanna concludes, "I'm quite happy with all of my rankings there." Tell us which of the quotes in her top six is your favourite.
