I love the Malones, specially Tom Senior, the faces he pulls crack me up. And love Dave the rottie. It always amazes me the cakes stay on the table with the dogs in there. Also like Stephen and his husband Daniel. Stephen always up for a laugh. Not keen on Giles or Mary, he would drive me crazy,

I have a soft spot for Mr Saddiquis (the father) and wouldn't mind sitting next to him on the sofa!

I really enjoy Jenny and Lee and the 2 sisters from Leeds BUT we ie my husband and I, cannot stand the awful brother and sister. He is not remotely funny yet she laughs uproariously at him. I am sure they get more air time. Anyway we have to turn them off. I feel positively allergic to the pair of them. Grrrrrrrr. Sorry folks. - rant over. Apologies to anyone who actually likes them ?

I like the Siddiqui’s and the brother and sister best. I would kill Giles

I`m with Jane10 on thisone.

My favourites are: Jenny & Lee; Giles & Mary (“steady on, Natty”); The Saddiquis. Then, I’d say: Mary & Marina; The Malones; David & Shirley. I miss Leon & June and also Steph & Dom. Can’t stand that pair of elderly blokes who sit in front of a painting of naked breasts (why?) Don’t understand their appeal. Also, brother and sister are very sarcastic (and not a fraction as funny as they think they are).

Jenny and Lee. She is crazy and the expressions on Lees face are brilliant.
As for Dave the dog and his family they also bring a laugh or two.

I love watching gogglebox, it's the only programme on tv that really makes me laugh out loud. I think all the people bring something to the show as they have all got great personalities, but I have to agree with so many others that Jenny and Lee are brilliant.

I love the Siddiquis and Jenny & Lee followed by Shirley & Dave, none of whom get as much air time it appears as the rest. I don’t see the point of Giles and Mary as they are so excruciatingly boring. The brother and sister, plus the 2 sisters from Leeds need their mouths washed out with soap (as my mother would say) but appear to get the most air time. I quite like the senior Malcolms but not the excitable boy. The rest I couldn’t care less about.
My favourite celebrity couple are Sheila Hancock and Giles Brandreth.

I loved Leon and June, it's not the same without them, I do like Jenny and Lee, and I like all the old dears, also the Welsh bloke and his wife.

Lyn54 Fri 10-Apr-20 13:24:22

Jenny and Lee are my favourite, also like the Siddiquis and Dave the dogs family! Can't stand the brother and sister, they are just not at all funny!

Nanna58 Fri 10-Apr-20 14:04:16

I love Giles and Mary. The ones who never cease to amaze me are the two young friends, can’t remember their names, who most definitely are the daftest duo,on the planet!

LizH13 Fri 10-Apr-20 14:10:36

Love Jenny and Lee,mthe Saddiqis and the Malones they all make me laugh. Many of the others are marmite, on the day. It's the best programme of the week for a good laugh, and often a good reflection of society and our opinions.
My only concern is that my grandson has the same name as Giles. How I hope he doesn't grow up to be like his namesake ?

GabriellaG54 Fri 10-Apr-20 14:28:25

Have done in the past. Liked Steph and From. Don't watch any more. It's like Coronation Street or EastEnders. A bit down-market.

Greendress Fri 10-Apr-20 14:29:16

I love them all especially Jenny and Lee and the Siddiques. However, I seem to be alone in liking the brother and sister .

GabriellaG54 Fri 10-Apr-20 14:29:17

Steph and Dom...not From. ?

Dorita Fri 10-Apr-20 14:37:47

All of them are terrific, but Giles and Mary stand out for me.

phoenix Fri 10-Apr-20 14:39:54

Tom Malone has a face like a bulldog licking piss wee off a stinging nettle!

phoenix Fri 10-Apr-20 14:42:22

Ooh, get you GrabriellaG54 " A bit down market" Snob? Vous?

murrec Fri 10-Apr-20 14:45:16

Giles and Mary eccentric but so funny. Stephen a complete moron and his partners false laugh drives me up the wall.

Lilypops Fri 10-Apr-20 15:04:09

I can’t stand the awful brother and sister,, He is not at all funny , he thinks he is because his sister screams laughing at every word he comes out with, Don’t like the Asian sisters they scream and whoop at everything , Don’t like Tom Malone effing and blinding at everything, I love Jenny and Lee The Saddiquis and Mary and Marina. I really miss Leon and June they were the best ,

Forestflame Fri 10-Apr-20 15:52:14

Like most of them, especially Mary and Marina, the Malone's, and Jenny and Lee. Cannot stand the brother and sister though.

Grandyma Fri 10-Apr-20 16:26:59

Favourites:
Giles & Mary
Jenny & Lee
The Saddiques
The Malones
Can’t stand the two sisters from Leeds who are always either eating or talking about food ??‍♀️
Quite like all the others.
Great programme, always makes me laugh ?

NotSpaghetti Fri 10-Apr-20 16:57:38

murrec I also dislike Stephen. He's not amusing at all. Unfortunately he's not the only one in my opinion!

Shizam Fri 10-Apr-20 17:21:54

Love gogglebox. The two older ladies in Bristol are priceless. So naughty in their humour. The Sidiquis are are wonderful, too.

GeorgyGirl Fri 10-Apr-20 17:55:57

I like Giles and Mary and also Mary and Marina. I really don't need to hear all the expletives from some of the others, it is just so unnecessary.
