Comedy duo Mat Horne and James Corden are reportedly no longer speaking and have shelved plans for any future TV work together.

The pair who starred together in Gavin and Stacey and Horne and Corden were planning to make a second series of their BBC Three sketch show but have become so irritated with each other, that they have went their seperate ways.

One pal told The Sun: “They were being billed as the next Morecambe and Wise, and that sort of thing. It went to their heads.

“While their success was on the rise they slowly started irritating each other to the point where now they don’t speak.

“They used to be in touch all the time, like best pals are. But they never go out together and just do their own things.

“They seem sick to death of each other – well Mat certainly seems to be fed up of James.”

Fed up or jealous?

Last night James said: “We are incredibly close mates and I love him dearly.”

A spokeswoman for Mat said: “Mathew is an extremely busy actor. He was before the Horne & Corden series and continues to be so. Both actors have their own respective workloads and projects, as they always have had.”
