James, 46, and Ruth, 57, could be seen holding hands as they walked up to greet dozens of Gavin and Stacey fans.
The pair were on location on Trinity Street, where Gwen and Uncle Bryn live.
Fans watched from behind barriers as filming took place in the sunshine.
The Sun previously revealed how Sheridan Smith will reprise her role as Smithy’s sister Rudi for the finale.
Sheridan Smith previously dated James Corden in real life and was not in the Christmas special in 2019.
A source said: “She is an incredible actress and stepped straight back into Rudi’s shoes.
“It was like no time had passed at all.
“Sheridan was over the moon she could go back into the fold and her scenes are brilliant.”
Meanwhile, previous snaps from the Gavin and Stacey set sparked hopes Smithy and Nessa would finally tie the knot.
James and his co-star Mathew Horne could be seen looking swanky in blue suits, while Alison Steadman looked glam in a pink outfit.
When Gavin and Stacey last aired in 2019 fans watched Nessa finally get on one knee and propose to Smithy.
However, the episode ended before viewers got the chance to hear his answer.
Gavin and Stacey’s Best Moments
With the news that the show is set to make an exciting return to screens, let’s take a look at some of the comedy programme’s biggest and best moments…
- Smithy and Rudi’s American Boy rap – No one will ever forget when James Corden and Sheridan Smith rapped perfectly word for word the Kanye West and Estelle hit American Boy as they walked across the car park on the phone to Gavin.
- Pam’s Vegetarian faux pas – Despite loving a cheesburger, Pam found herself caught up in a web of unexpected lies when she claimed to be Vegetarian. She is forced to keep up the secret throughout the entire show and uses hubby Mick to help her scoff meat. She is later rumbled when Stacey catches her in the act as she scoffs ham in the kitchen. Stacey says to her: “Is that ham, Pam!?… “I’ve seen you, Pam. A scotch egg here, a bit of bacon there, putting those regular sausages into the Linda McCartney box”.
- THAT fishing trip – It remains one of the biggest mysteries in Gavin and Stacey history as to just exactly what did happen on the ill-fated fishing trip. Bryn appears to be hiding a secret as to an occurance between him and his nephew Jason which has left relations fractures. Ness’ on-off boyfriend, Dave, is the only other person to know the whole truth. Bryn did appear to allude to him and Jason lying together naked to keep warm as he said to Dave: “We’re going to have this out, once and for all, man to man, you may know what happened, David, but you don’t know why it happened! It was freezing cold, it was! And when you are that cold…”
- Islands in the Stream – No one can ever forget the classic Karaoke performance of Islands in the Stream. Nessa and Bryn performed the track in front of all their nearest and dearest. It saw the whole pub burst into some line-dancing as they enjoyed a boozy night out.
- The Xmas special proposal – In 2019, fans were left overjoyed when the show made a comeback but it ended on the ultimate cliffhanger. Nessa asked Smithy if she would marry him as she finally laid bare her feelings for him. Fans were gutted as the show then cut straight to the credits as they never found out just how Smithy answered. Will all be revealed in the brand new episode?
