    • Trivia
      It was filmed in a real Italian restaurant, called Villa Napoli at The Glendale Hotel, Penarth.
    • Goofs
      When Gavin and Stacey are greeted at the airport by Gavin's parents a female in a pink top & white / grey pants, and a male with a cream top and blue jeans walk past. A couple of seconds later these same two people walk by again and go ahead of the group. In the next scene these same two people are now behind the group as they're walking.

      Pam Shipman: While I remember, will you sort your washing out ASAP? I've got a white wash ready but it's got to go on tonight, because your dad's run out of pants. You've had to go commando today. Isn't that right, Mick?

      Mick Shipman: What?

      Pam Shipman: You've got no drawers on.

      Gavin Shipman: Mum!

      Mick Shipman: Yeah, she's right. I'm flapping around like an elephant's trunk down there.

      Gavin Shipman: Dad!

      Pam Shipman: Elephant's trunk? I should be so lucky!
