To have only just realised this about gogglebox?!

[Bocolatechiscuit]

DP and I have been wondering for ages why the Michaels daughter Alex sometimes looks really odd and doesn't speak. We wondered if she'd had work done or had a brace on her teeth or something but couldn't work out why she was sometimes her usual self but sometimes seemed really different! Tonight, watching a recorded episode curiosity got the better of me and I googled...only to find out it's a sister Katie!

Am I the last to hear about this? Did you all know and I've been wondering what's going on like a divvy on my own?

I never knew this.

They are incredibly annoying though.

They had to leave when the Dad decided to stand for election for UKIP. The party was irrelevant though he'd have had to leave if he'd been standing as Tory/Labour/Monster Raving Looney etc. too. But when his political career didn't work out they were allowed back.

This has fucking blown my mind!

Dd and I were really concerned that Alex a few weeks ago. She seemed really quiet and had lost weight since the week before. We thought she must be ill.

Dd googled and found out there were two of them.

But you didn't tell us, Bakeoff?! YWBVU!!!

For some reason I thought Alex and Louis were twins, where did I get that from?! And I had no idea there were 2 other siblings as well.

Omg!!!!

Sorry Boco.

I'm very relieved to read this thread and find out Dd and I weren't the only ones who didn't know

Similar reaction from OH and getting an reaction from him is rare!

I had NO idea either! This is brand new information!

I watch Gogglebox every week and also never realised there were two different girls !

Its easy to be fooled I got through the whole series of Quantico thinking the twins were played by twins and then found out its just one actress.

Louis' voice makes me want to dig my nails into someone. And they all do that posh shouting thing that's really irritating.

I seriously never noticed! That is bizarre, why don't you see the two of them together?

You have BLOWN MY MIND!!!!! I had no idea! And I watch every week!!!!!

I thought this fanily were booted off when dad became a ukip my?

Never ever noticed anyone apart from Alex so I've just put on the one I've got recorded and lo and behold she's on there! and that's just why I've seen in the opening credits. I honestly don't think I've seen her before as although she looks similar it's not enough for me to have mistaken her for Alex.

*Why = what

I loved this family to start with but I think the fame has changed them.

Them all being clearly rampantly UKIP despite the Dad being of immigrant stock was the start.

Louis particularly screechy and affected now used to be quite likeable

The older brother was on it once, I remember

I saw the older brother Pascal once, he paid a surprise visit home from somewhere like Aberdeen.
Took me a while to realise Alex and Katie were not the same girl.

I really like this family but was amazed the dad was a UKiper

He's from Cyprus Ronald it legit makes no actual sense, UKIP would deport him!

I saw a recent episode and thought she looked very tarted up (corset top and hot pants). I've been watching different series of Gogglebox, some have aged really badly and unsurprisingly, (probably due to the amount of food they consume during the show) have gained a lot of weight

Weren't both daughters on in their first series. The son is away at college, he came home once.
If anyone is looking for the biggest shock about Goggle box SPOILER Google the missing Malone Son (the family with the Rothweilers) I was blown away 😋
