Channel 4 Gogglebox fans baffled as newcomer joins show

Channel 4 Gogglebox fans were left baffled as a newcomer joined tonight's show.

Many shows have been forced to stop production because of coronavirus, but last week Channel 4 bosses confirmed that Gogglebox  would still be filming.

Channel 4 confirmed it will use rigged cameras in the living rooms of its cast members to allow filming to continue.

These measures will also prevent crew members having to enter their homes.

But viewers noticed that Izzi had been replaced tonight by Ellie's boyfriend.

One wrote: "Izzi looks different."

User @mrsbunnymum said: "Aw, I'm really missing the Ellie/Izzi duo on #Gogglebox tonight."

Sophie asked: "Where’s Izzi?"

Sean tweeted: "Where’s the older sister tonight?"

Neil joked: "Missing Izzi tonight her snacks and comments always bring me joy!"

And Kieran joked: "Izzi's looking a little different tonight, she's had a haircut, got a tattoo and grown a beard!"

It is believed Izzi was absent due to social distancing rules, as she and Ellie do not live with one another.
