Gavin & Stacey Favourite to Win 2025 BAFTA Memorable Moment Award
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts has revealed the six-strong shortlist for its 2025 P&O Cruises Memorable Moment award and Gavin & Stacey is leading the way in the betting to win.
The much-loved finale of the BBC comedy, which aired as a special on Christmas Day, featured Smithy’s last-minute hesitation over marrying Sonia.
That scene where Smithy gets Mick’s opinion before deciding whether to marry Sonia is nominated for the Memorable Moment award.
Iconic and emotional moments on screen are celebrated in the award, which is entirely decided by viewers, making it a strong barometer for fan engagement.

What the expert says...
The Traitors follows closely behind Gavin and Stacey in odds
Betting odds for the Memorable Moment BAFTA suggest a two-horse race, with The Traitors close behind Gavin & Stacey.
Its dramatic reveal in last year's season, where Diane reveals that Ross is actually her son, captivated audiences and has drove huge ratings for the BBC.
Also in the running is Strictly Come Dancing’s emotional performance by blind comedian Chris McCausland, dancing to Liverpool anthem You’ll Never Walk Alone.
