Buckinghamshire star, James Corden has hinted that a much-loved Gavin and Stacey character will be killed off in the final episode. 

The actor and comedian, who grew up in Hazlemere, teased fans that Uncle Bryne could by the one to go in the hit BBC show. 

Corden, who wrote the show alongside Ruth Jones, dropped the hint at The Global Gift Gala charity event in London last week. 

He said: "What we were editing today was a very moving and emotional scene at Bryn’s funeral. I’m joking, I promise. Or am I?”

He previously admitted that the last episode would be 'hard to watch' and when asked if the last episode would include a funeral, he said: "Maybe."

It comes as Rob Brydon, who plays Stavey's beloved Barry Island uncle, posted a photo on Instagram with the caption: "Something's occurring...#gavinandstacey."

The photo was a selfie of him and James' co-writer Ruth Jones. 

One Gavin and Stacey fan responded: "This is better than Oasis getting back together."

Another quoted the show with: "Don't Start Bryn. You had your chance, you never took it."

James Corden is one of several stars to have attended the star-studded Jackie Palmer Stage School in High Wycombe, also attending Park Middle School and Holmer Upper Senior School. 

He previously described his adolescence in Wycombe as “blissfully ordinary” in his 2011 biography, adding that he continues to have “such an affection for it as a place”.

He returned to Wycombe in 2014 to open Jackie Palmer’s Bridge Street Studios, where he described his experience there as “the single best part of my week”.
