For Gogglebox Fans

[choux]

They are back tonight, Ch 4 at 9:00 to start Series 21.

If you are not a fan you really do not have to post on this thread :)

Found it very entertaining at first because of their natural reactions. I now only see acting.

[choux]

naomi, I beg to differ if one is trying to pre-empt posts of a negative nature whilst trying to alert followers of an eminent new series ;)

[choux]

^ imminent !

Choux, I thought the blonde sister was pregnant, no mention made last night though. The dark haired sister. Has 2 children ( I think) .

i agree with you after the first series they seen to change to me, they knew they themselves has become "celebrities", as you say its all contrived now

[andres]

I like Gogglebox but I do think that their reactions are sometimes exaggerated .Maybe they are acting. They get paid £1,500 per family a month and get snacks provided.
I thought that (Lee and Jenny?)in the caravan were a couple but they are best friends and appear together because Jenny's husband doesn't want to be on television.

[maggiebee]

andres - Yes, so I heard and Lee has a partner too.

The wee ginger lass is very telegenic.

[anneasquith]

I agree, the hairdressers bring nothing to the programme now.

[andres]

The brother and sister need to tone down their foul language.

[douglas9401]

They prefer their stage names, Wingnut and Tubbs, andres.

Ellie is the one who always sits on the left, she’s the oldest and is pregnant with her first child, she may even have had it by now.
Izzie, who sits in the right is the younger sister and has two children.
The only family I don’t really like is that one with a mum, a dad and a daughter, the mums always knitting and the sofa has very colourful crochet throws. It’s the daughter I don’t like, she can be a bit nasty I think.
I love Mary and her husband in that cottage, last night they were hilarious. And the Welsh couple, very funny, in fact most of them are.

[nicebloke1]

Mary and husband are both in need of some medical help. :o>

[anneasquith]

Re the cottage couple. I saw them being interviewed years ago when the programme started. They are not as eccentric as they would you like to believe.

[nicebloke1]

Yup, I agree ann, all a put up job. And I would be ashamed at that chair he sits in, its real grubby. She dresses like a tramp.

[anneasquith]

Lol, I know .

[pastafreak]

Did no one notice that Giles's chair had a new cover? As for how Mary dresses, she's basically still in 1960s hippie mode...at least for the cameras.

[douglas9401]

Giles has mastered the inner deep sigh.

[ladybirder]

I'm reading their book, "The Diary of Two Nobodies". I find it quite funny I must say.

[nicebloke1]

Pasta 10.20, Giles's chair had a new cover. So they've just covered the thick muck up. I would take it out the back garden and burn it :o>
