How awful hope he pulls through.

I enjoyed last night's too, more like it used to be!!

 

[Chablis1]

In complete agreement about the two sisters. They are gross.

I really enjoyed last nights episode! The mix of celebs and regulars was great.

Interesting article about Goggleboxer's jobs eg Sophie has her own florist shop, Marcus owns a boxing school.

Gogglebox stars' real jobs from pub landlady to lorry driver

Away from our screens, Gogglebox cast members have regular day jobs

I did read about Marcus. He is a boxing coach, or used to be a amateur boxer or something. He then started his own gym. Do the Gogglebox stars still receive the same amount of money per month? Think it was around £1500 when I last read about it. That's a nice bit of supplemental income.

Did anyone catch the Festive Special last night? A treat at an hour and half.

I really enjoyed it.

Verdicts on the newbies. I like Simon and is sister. They can stay. Ron and his wife can go. They try too hard. Why are The Bags family still there?

Do the Geordie girls have the biggest glasses and mugs in the world?

Some of the stuff reviewed these days seems to be shows I do not watch, so I don't feel I can relate much.

Finding it very hard to understand what the Derry girls are saying

I really am sooooo tired of them putting deliberately uncomfortable cringy stuff like Naked Attraction and Too Hot To Handle on. I used to like watching this with my parents but I can't stand the awkward factor anymore

 

[Maid22]

I'm just watching last nights, I laughed like a drain at Denise saying the last dance at a disco was an erection section

 

[grannypants]

None of us will ever like the same things so I have to say I can't stand them, although I know many posters do. I don't find them funny and I don't feel the chemistry. Sorry!

Haha fair enough!

I do also really like Mo & Babatunde and Miquita & her mum too, they feel natural and not forced unlike most of the people on this show

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

I have no idea who most of these ‘celebs’ are. Love Tia and Tayce though!

That Skin A&E show looks revolting!

I don't know why they insist on showing those type of programmes. They're just gross.

Verifying Device

Oh yay

 

[Maid22]

Sitting forward again it drives me nuts and I don’t know why! Sit back!!!! View attachment 876790

That really does my head in to!

 

[House of Tea]

I wonder if she’s trying to push “Rosie” her daughter in to the limelight, or whether it’s “Rosie” the tv personality (for tax reasons, ya know…….)

Maybe she is playing the part of her mum, rather like her playing the part of Lorraine Kelly the personality on Corrie.

 

[E_Stevens2000]

Who is Chris? Do you mean Stephen whose ex-partner, Chris left Gogglebox years ago?

Or, Chris Kamara, Chris Eubank on the Celebrity version? Although I think only the latter was mentioned to be featured this series but not seen yet.

oh yeah - only just started watching it again after ages (I meant Stephen).

 

[Django]

Guess who this is?

Mary looks like a young Kate Bush. Stunning

 

[Mouseballpenlid]

I'm thinking Gogglebox has jumped the shark.

First of all Stephen dropping his shorts
Then the bestiality duck thing.
Tacky crap.

And where was the missing T brother? Normally there's three of them

Are all the homes actually their own? I'm sure I heard/read some are properties just used for filming purposes.

When noel gallagher did it with Kate moss and naomi Campbell it was in none of their homes , noel said he turned up to some big house somewhere at 7.30pm and they had put booze and snacks on for them , I think noel had drunk most of the booze by the time Kate and naomi turned up at 10.30pm , he then said they watched what the producer wanted them to watch , and they were told that a reaction was needed for certain bits of what they watched , apparently the producer or director is in another room and his voice comes out through a speaker below the TV, and while the reactions aren't exactly scripted as such they do get told what's expected.
He said it went on until 2.30am , I think back then celeb versions were one offs and not series , so whether they are at home now seeing as they are needed every week I dont know.

Petition to get rid of Eubank

Just seen on the news one of his sons passed away
