Anti-'Gavin + Stacey' references

Did anyone else spot the negative references to "Gavin & Stacey" in series 2?

On Scouse Steve's rap sheet, several of the charges read "James Corden is fat".

When Janek rings the old couple to ask them if he can listen to their TV, the news channel has a ticker across the bottom saying "Gavin & Stacey cancelled after BBC cutbacks".

When the guy on the camel rings directory enquiries to ask for the number of the NCP, the photo used for the (Welsh) operator has "I love Gavin & Stacey" underneath it. In the next shot, it says "combined weight of cast: 17.5 tonnes".

Did anyone spot any more?

To be fair, the phrase "James Corden is fat" is more simply a statement of truth than a negative slur.

The other's seem a bit off though.
