The Beeb ordered a pilot episode which was centred around Ruth and Rob's characters

It would see Gaynor and Ray Davies, who are both from Cardiff, introduced to viewers.

Both are two fifty-something newlyweds, each married for a second time.

Gaynor’s first marriage ended when she discovered her husband was unfaithful multiple times.

Meanwhile, Ray's first marriage ended because he was "impossible to live with" - or so his ex-wife often tells him.

Viewers were set to see them give marriage one last go - but this time with each other.

The BBC confirmed the pilot 35-minute pilot episode would land on BBC One over two years ago now.

However, since then there's been radio silence from bosses sparking panic the show has been ditched.

The Sun contacted the BBC for comment.

Writer-creators David and Ruth previously spoke of the show, saying: "We’re delighted to watch Gaynor & Ray come to life on screen.

"Through them we get to see the male and female take on life and relationships as well as the nonsense in the day-to-day."
