Channel 4 Celebrity Gogglebox viewers say 'protect Chris Packham at all costs' - but not everyone agrees

Celebrity Gogglebox viewers couldn’t get enough of Chris Packham as they insisted he should be “protected at all costs.”

The Channel 4 hit show returned for another series after a short break and while fan favourites were back on our screens the show also introduced some new faces.

Chris was among the stars who appeared on the show and he was joined by step-daughter Megan McCubbin. Viewers were left in stitches at Chris and Megan's hilarious reactions to the week's hit TV shows and films and they wasted no time sharing their reactions on social media.
