Channel 4's Gogglebox: Will Jenny and Lee return tonight? Here's what we think

A firm favourite with Gogglebox fans, Jenny and Lee were missed by viewers up and down the nation last week when they did not appear on our television screens from the comfort of Jenny's Hull caravan. The best friends often have the nation in fits of giggles whenever they appear on the show, which meant that their lack of presence was greatly felt last Friday, May 6.

The pair were missing from the Channel 4 show last week as Jenny was in hospital having a long-awaited operation, Lee confirmed. But will the much-loved friends be back this week? We'll be finding out tonight, but here's what we think might be the case.

Unfortunately, Jenny was unable to be by Lee's side at the BAFTAs last weekend as a result of her operation - the specifics of which have, understandably, not been disclosed. However, Lee has assured fans and members of the press that his best friend is doing well.

Thanking fans for their support and well wishes for his best friend, Lee took to the duo's Instagram page earlier this week to provide an update on Jenny. The Gogglebox star said: "Hi everybody, just an update on Jenny.

"Yes, she has had an operation but it's been on the waiting list for two years and it come BAFTA week. I was totally gutted that she couldn't be by my side [at the BAFTAs] and she was as well, but she is doing well and she’s out this week."

On Sunday night, May 8, Lee shed some light on Jenny's condition on the BAFTAs red carpet. He told reporters: "She's not very well - she's had an operation.

"She's doing well though. She was invited... you can't turn down an NHS operation, can you?"

Lee has not issued any further update on Jenny since earlier this week, nor has Jenny herself made an appearance back on their Instagram page. Although Gogglebox airs every Friday evening, it is filmed during the week, so it is looking unlikely that we will see Jenny on this week's show.

A little while ago, the dynamic duo reduced viewers at home to fits of laughter when they were interrupted by an unexpected visitor whilst filming the show - a mouse. Gogglebox fans laughed at Jenny's expense when the rodent invited itself into her caravan, scaring her, whilst Lee laughed at his friend's reaction.
