Gogglebox #2

[House of Tea]

What tf do Lorraine and her daughter talk about on it? It must be so boring.

No idea, no incentive to find out!

 

[House of Tea]

Was it on this thread that I read that Sophie and Pete were related to the Chuckle Brothers?

 

[ElektraWintour]

Just saw the news on Twitter. RIP Mary.

 

[Shesaidwhat?]

I thought there might of been another tribute to them all given they missed Pete off last weeks tribute.

 

[G+T]

Does anyone else think that what they make from the show is quite low? Apparently it's £1,500 a month. Considering how popular the show is, and how popular many of the families are, it just seems fairly low. Then again I'm not sure what correct amount would be for a show like that.

But they do all have normal jobs as well so it's kinda like just extra spare cash. Scarlett left to do tv work etc. Dunno of there is a story behind any of that her leaving and getting so big etc

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

Not the best episode IMO.

All fell a bit flat and where where Lee and Jenny?

 

[N0s3yr0s3y]

I can’t think what would have been in that episode of You that was complaint-worthy?

I hate when they watch any wildlife stuff, I always have to pause and then fast forward past it. Can’t deal with sad animal things And they always seem to take up a massive segment of the show, when they do watch them

I was hazarding a guess because of the spoilers, they always show too much of a programme, I’d be fuming if I was watching a series & then saw all the juicy bits on there
I forgot about the wildlife show but I tend to zone out when animals are being hurt

 

[House of Tea]

Thought it was better last night.

 

[Doodlebug005]

Just caught up with Gogglebox. Brilliant! Loved Rusty and Mr Motivator! ( And everyone else too)

 

[Marylou]

I just watched last Friday's episode and was creased with laughter watching the reactions to Cheaters Mary's slow walk impression was also funny. Didn't understand a word from the new Scottish couple and he gave me the hee bee geebies for some reason.

 

[Doodlebug005]

Read somewhere Rylan and his mum were on tonight, can't remember where I saw it but no sign of him yet. Not keen on Ed and Anne Marie

 

[Traveler001]

Tbf I do comment a lot when watching certain programmes (mainly dramas, thrillers and true crime, not Emmerdale lol) and when something happens that I didn’t expect I gasp, grab my husband’s arm and shake it gently as if to ask “can you believe that?” I do believe that they may have mannerisms as such when watching television but they ham it up with extra cheese because they have been told to.

Also when they get a positive comment about one thing they do on social media they do it x1000 forevermore to get more comments about it!

 

[Savannah_xx]

Jenny and Lee are two of the worst for this, really does my head in

And the two Leeds sisters and Pete and Sophie...

REALLY?? Those two give me the creeps, it's not natural talking to your sibling about your cock, balls and being sucked off... I cringe when they're on.


They give me the ick, who talks to their sister about their cock??

Thought I was the only one. The things they talk about as brother and sister is a tad weird...

 

[Pat the Dog]

So far the only thing that has made me laugh is 'mega willy'

 

[Comewhinewithme]

Not a fan of Peter or Pete(?) but he did make me laugh with the trolley comment

 

[Savannah_xx]

I’m just sick of the celebrity ones tbh, part of the appeal of Gogglebox is just seeing the reactions of normal people. I’m also sick of celebrities trying to make their children famous

Same. The normal one is miles better.

 

[Little Bear]

I wonder what happened to that guy with massive hair who didn’t speak

Jay? The one who would sit with his girlfriend and her mum and her mums bf? I think him and the girl split up.

 

[Doodlebug005]

I found last nights ep quite dull. Why did they show so much of Claire and her wife? They never said anything interesting.
Same with Ann Marie and TJ- how many more times do we have to watch her drop her jaw and pretend to laugh?
Sunetra and Georgia were shovelling food in their gobs again. Thought the idea was to provide commentary not go round to your friends for tea?

I thought the same. The couples are not as good as before. I don’t like Denise VO’s fella, Lorraine Kelly and wee Rosie are dull, as are Claire B and her Mrs. I think Gyles and Maureen could be good but don’t get much air time. Tom J and Ann Marie don’t work, I keep thinking the old letch is going to hit on her. I wouldn’t put it past him. I miss Rylan and his ma.

Agree with you both. I miss Ruth and Eamonn too... Didn't he tell them off about editing last time, he told the story of his dads sudden death I think but they cut it and put in some flippant remark he made instead and he pulled them on it- disappointed to see they not on it this time (yet)
Claires wife is very gentle and mild isn't she, come across as nice but they are dull. AnnMarie and Tom ....does not sit right with me.... I miss Rylan too. The content last night was a bit ... Between naked attraction and the skin thing, let dog out for wee and didn't watch it ...

It is mental when you think about it. 10 years ago if you had said to me that we would be watching people, watching and reacting to other people on TV and it was an addictive show to watch, I would have thought that's a mad idea.

I didn't watch the first couple of series, as I thought, why on earth would I watch people watching tv! I'm now watching those that I missed on Netflix.

 

[Miss Havisham]

I am scared for the child that the pregnant Durham lass has. She, and her sofa mate, are as thick as mince.

Like most of gogglebox - it’s fake. They are probably not very bright, but won’t be anywhere as near stupid as how it is acted out.

I have stopped watching Gogglebox, as most of the working class women are portrayed as thick
