She's an accomplished actress, screenwriter and novelist, but it seems a complete career change could be on the horizon.
Ruth Jones has said she wants to retrain as a wedding registrar at the age of 57 as she'd like to make ceremonies 'more enjoyable' for people tying the knot.
Following in the footsteps of Jools Oliver, who is training to become a midwife, and Kate Silverton who left broadcast journalism to become a child therapist, Ms Jones, who shot to fame as gobby Nessa in BB hit Gavin & Stacey, is keen to branch out into a new industry.
'At one point, I was going to be a solicitor, but now I'd like to be a registrar, and I've been thinking a lot about actually doing it,' she told Good Housekeeping magazine.
'I love weddings, but I've been to so many where the registrar has talked in a monotone voice throughout and hasn't looked up once - and it's such a shame because it's someone's big day.
