Despite being told that the details of the infamous 'fishing trip' would remain a mystery, Gavin and Stacey fans finally got an idea of what it looked like last night (1 January).

Over the years, our imaginations have run wild about what went on during Bryn (Rob Brydon) and Jason's (Robert Wilfort) infamous outing.

We've had tidbits of information here and there, but for the most part, we've had to come to our own conclusions.

A lot of viewers hoped that all would be revealed in the finale, but unfortunately, Dave Coaches' (Steffan Rhodri) admission was interrupted by an ill-timed smoke alarm.

He did manage to share a few details in the episode though - as he explained it 'was cold, the tent was up and the sun was down, the fire was blazing, and the soup was bubbling in the billy can…'

But that was our lot, as the Gavin and Stacey gang explained that the point of the running joke has always been you don’t find out what happened.

Wilfort said: "It’s funnier that way."

But last night, fans of the show who tuned into Gavin & Stacey: A Fond Farewell were given one final treat.

The documentary special took a look back at the incredible journey of the BBC show and its characters while providing sneak peeks of the cast filming the finale.

The hour-long programme also included stars such as Minnie Driver, Richard Curtis and Lena Dunham, who explained why they love the show so much.

It was an emotional 60 minutes, but its the end credits of the show which have really got people talking.

Grainy camcorder-style footage of Bryn and Jason geared up for their fishing trip was slipped in.

A baby-faced Jason can be seen grinning as he holds onto his pole at the side of a river, while Uncle Bryn waltzes up to him with the camera saying: "Who do we have here?"

The pair then proudly show off their catch, with Bryn encouraging his nephew to 'hold it up'.

He then joins Jason in the camera shot to clutch the fish, before declaring: "No one will go hungry in this camp tonight!"

In the final shot before the screen faded to black, Jason can be seen sitting around the fire that Dave Coaches referenced, as Bryn was heard saying: "Enjoy your soup!"

Viewers couldn't believe the inclusion of the scene and took to social media to share their surprise.

One wrote: "Oh my Christ! What a surprising little Easter egg we just had at the end of the Gavin & Stacey farewell just then!"

Another added: "Fantastic documentary and, wonderfully, rounding off with that fishing trip home video snippet - absolute pure class."

And a third chimed in: "Teasing the fishing trip in the end credits was f*cking class."

I hope we all feel some degree of closure now.
