Rylan and Linda Clark share behind the scenes gossip on how Gogglebox works

Rylan and Linda Clark shared behind-the-scenes information on how Gogglebox works.

Rylan was back on the sofa today joined by his mum Linda as the pair chatted about their Gogglebox fame and their recent cosmetic procedures. Celebrity Gogglebox is back tonight and the mother-son team said they were thrilled to be back on people's telllys.

Rylan said: "Yeah, it's amazing. When they asked who I wanted to do it with I said my mum right away." Linda was reserved about her time on the show but admitted it feels nice when people recognise her in the street as she's not used to the spotlight.

This Morning host Alison Hammond asked Rylan and Linda about the inner workings of the show and whether or not they're shocked at the footage that is used. Rylan said "not really" as he revealed he has somewhat of a say as to what makes it into the final edit as their preferred moments will get the spotlight if they want them to. Linda added: "When [Rylan] mucks about I say please don't put that in."

Rylan went on to say they their edits can be changed depending on how cheeky the footage is. He said: "The editors clearly like us because the stuff they've had to cut out is horrific. I'd be like can we not use that."

Linda was also left red-faced as Rylan outed her for stealing all of the set's cakes once filming is wrapped. According to Rylan, each Gogglebox family is given a range of food and alcohol which they can refuse but the producers are keen to offer as much as they can to get the families busy with other things than simply watching the screen.

Linda was embarrassed when her son outed her for taking the snacks as she wanted to keep the secret to herself. Later in the show Rylan referenced the rumours of a Big Brother reboot coming to ITV2 but reiterated he has still been left in the dark and hasn't been told anything about it.
