The joke goes like this- Most english people will pronounce "Owain" (welsh way) as Owen. Owen Hughes is cockney for "do you use" as in do you use drugs. So when he says "no I don't" he is answering the cockney question as a joke on the english pronounciation of "Owain". XD Hope this helps.
I'm not sure if I'm right but I am sure that the Owain Hughes joke is that only welsh people get it and gavin and smithy being English do not get the joke. Bring back Gavin and stacy Pleeeassse :-)
a hewer was a miner who actually worked at the coal seam face digging (hewing) out the coal. Owain hughes, no he doesnt, he doesnt hew. Is my best guess at that joke, I assue its supposed to be one of those shit office introduction jokes
@62avianflu look it up, not only did someone else tell me this who lives in wales i also looked it up after. dont be so rude when you dont know what your talking about :)
@XConnorsMusicX know exacly what i'm talking about, as i speak welsh, nothing to do with the language, more the pronounciation, if mispronounced it could sound like 'owing hughes' but he's not owing hughs, see?
'and do you?' would be 'ac wyt ti?' if you really want to know.
there is no joke about his name thats the point. james even says it himself in the extras. one of his best mates got really mad at him coz he wouldnt tell him what the joke was...
The chippy by me has a flat above it, I only found out the other day that a pipe had burst upstairs, and when anyone flushed the toilet, water would spray down into the chipshop. I'd had a sausage in batter & chips from there when that was happening. I was aghast. Never again.
@iFOREVERiTALENTEDi Think (and this is a vague thought) that there was a famous welsh man called Wayne Hughes and he did something... important and they tried to do a play on words, so Owain Hughes becomes Owe Wayne Hughes... money, or something... actually I have no idea but there was a famous welsh man called Wayne Hughes.
ahaha i had this discussion in school and it confused everyone lol. but now i no it means nothing im soo reasured i used to keep watchin it over and over but i just didnt get it. but now i no aha
Am welsh and do have a welsh accent even though its a north walian one . and this joke makes no sense its jsust their to confuse you. and its done its job. owain hughes doesnt meen anything in welsh btw
I'm welsh. I speak welsh Fluently. My best bet would be that its a play on words "Owain Hughes" prounouced in a thick southen welsh accent (I'm from N wales, fortunatly I have no
obvious Welsh accent) could be interperated as "Oh I use" - a reference to drug use maybe, and he replies "before you ask No I dont"
Note that people trying to "Put on" a welsh accent to spot the reference will not work. Different syllables, sounds etc.
The joke is .. is that your not ment to get it,, the translations don't make any sence ... OK? so stop trying becuase your not sounding "clever" attempiting to work out something that isn't ment tobe worked out! lmao.
Well, his name is 'Owain', which doesn't really sound like 'I owe'. Someone also suggested that it's Welsh for 'Do you speak Welsh', which could be it, though I'm unsure about the translation.
Either way, it doesn't make a particularly good joke - unless it truly was intended to be something we couldn't work out, and we're just trying to place meaning on it, which I think is the most likely option.
de only ting i cud tink it was his name is HUGHES which sounds like use n de no i dont part i taught was dat he dosint HUGHES drugs...if ya get me?U SLAG
no, its not a welsh thing! cos i didnt get it either, and im welsh .. :L but apperently it means, he doesnt ow wanye hughes, as in money wise if you get me:L
owe wain hughes and before you ask no i dont but im welsh and i dont get how its supposed to be funny coz i really dont ger the joke but i love gavin and stacey :) x

Either way, it doesn't make a particularly good joke - unless it truly was intended to be something we couldn't work out, and we're just trying to place meaning on it, which I think is the most likely option.
