Pete for me (from Sophie and Pete) and Jenny (Jenny and Lee). I like them all to be honest, although Stephen can be a bit nasty.

It's my favourite Sunday night tv. Such a friendly and comfortable programme.

The Siddiquis
The 2 guys in the Cotswolds
Pete and Sophie are hilarious! 😂

chickenfucker · 23/11/2025 17:31

Pete and Sophie and the Siddiquis too. Jenny and Lee are too contrived now.

chickenfucker · 23/11/2025 17:32

I like the two sisters too, they have such a lovely relationship with each other and their extended family seems so close.

ColaWars · 23/11/2025 17:35

I like most of them but the two new ladies from Edinburgh are awful, the one with the shorter hair is trying desperately hard to be a character and her exaggerated pan loafy accent goes right through me. I can say this because I’m from Edinburgh.

HalfWayAroundTheLoop · 23/11/2025 17:37

Names please!

The Siddiquis were my favourite - I loved their humour and they seemed like nice people as well. I went off them somewhat after an episode in which they watched some bloke trying to kill cane toads by bashing them against a wall and having trouble with the slippery little things. The Siddiquis laughed a lot, which I found a bit callous.

MrsMoastyToasty · 23/11/2025 17:40

Pete and Sophie re my favourites.
I can't bear Giles and Mary. They don't even seem to like each other.

ByLemonFish · 23/11/2025 17:41

Giles and Mary

ColaWars · 23/11/2025 17:43

Giles and Mary are well past their sell by date. Mary has to play devils advocate all the time and it just doesn’t chime with me.

doeadeer2 · 23/11/2025 17:44

Giles and Mary are hilarious and so dry.
Pete and Sophie are funny but sometimes feel a bit false.
The Malones - the dad’s facial expressions kill me.

I think he adores her but it seems to me like she genuinely can't stand him. He irritates the skin off her.

Favourites, the Malones and the sisters, Ellie and Izzy.

Dont like Giles and Mary.

RainySundayAfternoon · 23/11/2025 17:47

Giles and Mary are entertaining but also horrifying and a bit disturbing! The insight into their relationship and life is not positive! Having said that, Mary has some unexpected and hilarious reactions to things you would have sworn she’d disapprove of. Over the years I’ve come to see that Giles is actually quite annoying but Mary clearly has deep seated issues!

Apart from them, Pete and Sophie and the two sisters - why can’t I think of their names 🤦🏻‍♀️

Minty25 · 23/11/2025 17:48

The two sisters, sorry can't remember their names Armari ? I like them . Also like Giles and Mary. the two Geordie girls who act really thick ( or maybe genuinely are ? ) are irritating.

SwedishEdith · 23/11/2025 17:50

I love the three brothers - Tremaine, Tristan and Twayne. I love that the older one is like the sensible older brother. Heartbreaking a few weeks ago when he was commenting on the flags everywhere and how uncomfortable it was making him feel and that he thought we'd moved on from that.

FionnulaTheCooler · 23/11/2025 17:51

I like the Siddiquis, Pete and Sophie and the Malones. I used to like Jenny and Lee but they've become a bit try hard lately with their "hilarious" pranks. The two Geordie girls get on my wick, I can't decide if they're genuinely that thick or just putting it on for the cameras.

RachelFanshawe · 23/11/2025 17:54

I love Pete and Sophie

Ellie and Izzie are too contrived nowadays.

Adore the Siddiquis.

The two georgie girls are too thick to be real

I like the Malones.

The Nutties are also far too self aware now.

Crinkle77 · 23/11/2025 17:54

Sophie & Pete, Giles & Mary, Jenny & Lee and Ellie and Izzy. I always feel abit sorry for the Malone mum. Her husband acts like he doesn't like her. Perhaps that part of the act.

Whynot35 · 23/11/2025 17:57

Pete
Jenny
Amira and Amani
I don't like Giles or Mary but I find their relationship fascinating.
Forgot the three brothers but I can't remember their names.

I've been thinking of starting a thread on one aspect of Gogglebox which infuriates me but I'll mention it here instead... Feet/shoes too close to their snacks. The Malones are especially guilty of putting their feet up only inches away from the snacks but I've seen others do it as well.

StewkeyBlue · 23/11/2025 17:58

The Siddiquis
The Tremaynes
Pete and Sophie
Shirl and ? In Caerphilly
Amira and Anani
Simon and his sister

I Miss Marcus and Mica

I hated those male hairdressers

There are some boring new ones

HalfWayAroundTheLoop · 23/11/2025 18:00

Yes I really liked Marcus and Mica, where did they go? Plus Steph and Dom?

OP posts:
Whynot35 · 23/11/2025 18:03

Probably missing the point a bit but I also like their animals. Quite fond of all the Malones dogs, the Siddiquis cats, and I love the giant dog that lives with the newish middle class family whose name I don't kn ow.

tartyflette · 23/11/2025 18:04

Steph and Dom were very funny. Not always intentionally...

JustGoClickLikeALightSwitch · 23/11/2025 18:09

I like Simon and his sister (name escapes me). I love his humour and self-deprecation.

Amira and Amani.

I would like to live in the Malone's house with a rotating crew of Rottweilers and supermarket cakes.

JDM625 · 23/11/2025 18:09

It's my favourite Sunday night tv I thought it was on a Friday night OP?

There is no one I really dislike. I have wondered if Abbie and Georgia really are as thick as they make out or if its an act though?
