Who's your favourite on gogglebox?

[pansydansy]

Mine has to be Giles and Mary they are hilarious.
I was creasing last night imagining Giles frisbeeing a popadom across the room 😂😂

Siddiquis. Jenny and Lee. Welsh couple. June and Leon sadly missed, what a lovely couple. RIP Leon.

Wow, they do well out of it.

I’d love to know how it works- it sounds like they are given a load of stuff to watch in a block, so presumably they can’t just watch things as they are broadcast because the reactions have to be original, and they must have to avoid spoilers as well. It’s all very current though so they must have to commit a certain number of hours a week. I think the cameras are remote, right, so they probably set it up themselves?

I remember a similar thread to this when Pete and Sophie were first introduced and everyone hated them. Great to see that they have won the public over.

That's based on 12 hours 'work' a week apparently.

They must get a lot of applicants wanting to do it. Especially with the potential to be quite big from it I.e Scarlett Moffatt

Love Pete and Sophie CANNOT stand "the Lampards" the one who has to swear in EVERY sentence 😡 dreadful

Another vote for the Siddiquis. They should be running the country.
Giles and Mary for entertainment value.
The black Mum and her daughters. I don't think he's their Dad but her partner is cool.
The 2 newer northern girls are annoyingly dim - 'New Zealand is in Australia.' And Pete and his sister freak me out.

Pete and the sister are disturbing. They seem very close.

Oh please

I like the Siddiquis too. They seem very down to earth, smart and a genuinely nice dynamic between them.
June and Leon were good-he could be a pain in the backside but I loved how June just brought him down a peg.
Mary and Marina are quite funny.

My faves are Giles and Nutty.

Runners up are the Siddiquis.

Mary and Marina are such minxes they love a bit of nudity or naughty talk

Jenny and Lee but more Jenny.

Giles and Mary equally.

The three black brothers whose names all begin with T.

The dad from the Malones.

The brother and sister are a bit annoying- there's a know-it-all aspect to them, too self aware maybe?

Ooh yes Amira and Iqra too.

Giles and Nutty are hilarious. Also love Mary and Marina, Jenny and Lee and the hairdresser guy with the glasses. June and Leon were my favourite - so funny when he was always sushing her, don’t know how she put up with it

Enjoyed it tonight. Some good laughs.

Yes, I was in stitches at some of the comments on the programme with the guy who was done for fraud.

'Can I have the woman from 'Murder She Wrote'? I'd like to see her'

Or Helen Mirren .

Got it wrong mentioning Iqra, she left I think so it's Amira and Amani now.

I always like Nutty's tights.

Me too @Merril

Where does he think he is?
Starbucks!

The walrus 😭 I actually cried, it was awful.

I didn't watch it as dh was nearly in tears so no way I could cope with seeing that!!

Love the brother and sister from Blackpool and also Giles and Mary.

Really dislike Steven and his new hubby. I feel like Steven is the biggest try-hard on the show, his comments feel really staged and fake and he seems to be the only person who laughs at his own jokes.

I wish I hadn’t seen the poor walrus either. That’s the downside of Gogglebox - they show horrible clips from time to time.

I’d love to be friends with the Siddiquis. But there are many people on there who make me laugh.

I enjoy watching the Michaels. Sometimes Carolyne gets completely the wrong end of the stick, much to everyone’s bemusement and her son tries painstakingly to put her straight.

Mary and Giles from ages ago:
G: Do I need the Uber app on my phone, Mary?
M: No Giles, you never go out so you don't need it
G: What about Tinder, Mary? Do I need Tinder? Is it like Uber?
M: No Giles, you don't need Tinder.
