In the scene filmed on Tuesday, it was revealed that Nessa has started yet another job: carting passengers on Barry Island in a rickshaw.
Nessa’s varied career includes stints as a roadie for a huge brand, a producer for the BBC, and, more similarly to her current role, a truck driver.
She allegedly has driven for Gladys Knight and the Pips, The Who, and agricultural company Eddie Stobart Ltd.
With his notes in hand, James appeared at one point to give Ruth some advice on how he wanted the scene to pan out.
Before filming, Ruth had lunch at Mr Villa’s fish and chip shop and posed for a photo with a fan who worked behind the counter.
James, meanwhile, sent Gavin & Stacey fans wild with excitement as he shared a snap from the first day of filming for the highly-anticipated return of the sitcom.

James was also directing and was seen walking around with a notebook and giving feedback to the women
The actor and co-creator of the beloved comedy took to his Instagram to post a behind-the-scenes photo from the set, as he confirmed shooting was underway.
It comes after fellow star Rob Brydon hinted shooting was underway for the show, as he shared a selfie with co-star Ruth Jones on Saturday.
The actor, 59, who plays fan-favourite Uncle Bryn beamed next to Nessa Jenkins star Ruth and teased: ‘Something’s occurring… #gavinandstacey’.
Gavin & Stacey co-creator James and Ruth confirmed the show would return in May, with filming back in Barry Island, after last airing a Christmas special in 2019.
Fans will get to find out what has happened during the five-year break on Christmas Day this year, after the previous episode became the most-viewed non-sporting event in a decade.
At the climax of the episode, Nessa got down on one knee to propose to Smithy, but viewers never got to hear his response.
Mathew’s absence on Tuesday will remind fans of his rumoured feud with James.
The pair were best pals during and after Gavin And Stacey, but failed to make a name for themselves as a duo, despite numerous attempts.
The fab four were last seen in 2019’s Christmas Special in which Nessa proposed to Smithy and the episode ended before he answered. It was the most-viewed non-sporting event in a decade
