Who's that new bloke on the Gogglebox sofa?

I can't remember their name - Dad's Greek Cypriot maybe? Beautiful daughters who have been replaced by Beardy Chap without explanation. Who is he? Why do I care so much?

Just thinking the same thing myself [ grin]

Can't help though, sorry

Hassled · 03/03/2017 21:34

I don't mean why do I care about random beardy chap, I mean why am I so invested in strangers who watch TV generally. I do love Gogglebox.

I wanted to ask this! Must be one of Louis' friends.

MrsDoylesTeabags · 03/03/2017 21:36

Me too. He looks a lot like the dad though

EssentialHummus · 03/03/2017 21:38

Looks related.

This family have more than 2 children who didn't want to be on the show before.

Hassled · 03/03/2017 21:41

I like the Welsh couple. The woman is so lovely looking, and they just seem to get on so well. Husband needs some neck support though.

Oh durr, should have read properly. Their other child is a girl.

lia66 · 03/03/2017 21:45

Thought I was going mad. They do indeed have another son, Pasqual.

Hassled · 03/03/2017 21:49

Oh thanks - but I wonder why the other son has waited till now to make an appearance? You'd have thought seeing his parents/siblings being recognised etc would have put him off more, not less. Being filmed for Gogglebox would break me out into a cold sweat.

Just googled the son & it said that he has not long graduated from uni in aberdeen so that could be why he hasnt been on the show.

ImperialBlether · 03/03/2017 22:11

I thought Louis was at university somewhere in the south - that's why he could be there each week. I can't believe he was in Aberdeen!

ImperialBlether · 03/03/2017 22:11

Oh sorry, this is another son?

Hassled · 03/03/2017 22:22

Nice to have a logical reason - thanks.
So where is Sandra (or possibly Sandy. The one who's not there)? I like the daughter who's appeared to replace her, but I'll miss her.

I didn't notice a change, I even re-watched and still didn't notice a change. I thought it was Louis and he had grown a beard.....seriously I think I need to watch for a 3rd time Grin

Well spotted there, OP. I've just fast forwarded through it and he was there just for a second. No idea who he is though.

My favourite is the Dad from the family with the Rottweiler called Dave. He's so dead pan but his face is hilarious!

🤣

Iamtheresurrection · 04/03/2017 23:54

I thought the other Sandra/sandy wanted to be a celebrity so she was ditched.

Agree about the Rottweiler dad. He's so funny.
