Urgh we ask each other this question too!!! Shoes on in the house - but also next to food like that. Plus dogs. Dirty sofas too. It’s disgusting. Truly.

StillCoughingandLaughing · 18/01/2021 00:05

Even though I know this is going to be stupid, I’m still adding myself to the thread.

Well they’ve got a horrible enormous slobbery dog as well (maybe 2)so can’t be too bothered about the shoes. They never eat the cakes either.

Dave is a God, a British icon You leave Dave alone

(they have 3 I think)

Sparklingbrook · 18/01/2021 00:10

Urgh 3? Dave is always climbing all over them. Shoes are the least of their worries. Grin

I can't stand this lot and the constant uneaten display of cakes annoys me immensely. I love Gogglebox but I wish they would get rid of a few of the families now.

WorraLiberty · 18/01/2021 00:13

They have 4 Rotties named Lucy, Izzy, Joe and Dave.

They used to have five but Frank died a couple of years ago Sad

Yes, I'm far too invested Blush

WorraLiberty · 18/01/2021 00:14

As much as I love Giles and Mary, I've never understood them either.

Their chairs are absolutely filthy and more often than not, Mary has huge holes in her tights Confused

doodleygirl · 18/01/2021 00:15

Hahahaha this is a wind up, yes?

PanamaPattie · 18/01/2021 00:17

I would wear shoes in the house if had huge Rottweilers drooling everywhere. 🤢

Sparklingbrook · 18/01/2021 00:18

It’s the nearest we’re going to get to a ‘shoes on or off in the house’ thread at then moment!

TheFlis12345 · 18/01/2021 00:18

Leave Dave and the crew alone!! I love the Malones ♥️

Lucy is the other one you see sometimes I think?

My dog loves Dave.

WorraLiberty · 18/01/2021 00:23

@HazyJuly, my dogs love the little Italian greyhounds that belong to the two sisters!

AlwaysLatte · 18/01/2021 00:28

This always makes me mad. How can you put your outdoor shoes on the pouffe right next to the food?? They never even touch the snacks. It's all done to wind us up, I think.

Rummikub · 18/01/2021 00:29

I noticed the shoes too. Think lots of the families wear shoes.
I do like the malones.

WorraLiberty · 18/01/2021 00:31

I don't really care about shoes but the waste of cake is criminal Shock

Julie usually has slippers on

Neither of the pairs of shoes in the picture look like they are worn outside.

I bet Dave gets the cake after the filming

The food and drink is a contractual part of the show apparently and provided for them.

BastardGoDarkly · 18/01/2021 00:34

Awwww I love everybody's dogs!

Cakes look shit anyway tbf.

WorraLiberty · 18/01/2021 00:34

Well Dave is far more patient and restrained than I am 👀😂

Dave sometimes gets at the cakes.
WorraLiberty · 18/01/2021 00:36

I think the perfectly arranged and untouched cakes are their little quirk (although far too try hard imo).

Just like the brother and sister with the creepy relationship have their quirky coffee mugs.
