Exact amount Gogglebox stars are paid to film hit show

Gogglebox is one of Channel 4's most popular programmes and a firm favourite for viewers down the years.

Cast members are household names and some of them have even gone on to enjoy further fame from the show.

We've come to love the families and friends who critique and review popular and topical TV shows and the breaking news stories of the week.

The show is filmed over seven days from the comfort of cast member's own sofas, as they comment on what they're watching each week.

In the past it was reported producers travelled the country to scout for people to be on the show.

As well as getting free takeaways to tuck into while they are watching all the different TV shows, Gogglebox stars can expect to be paid £1,500 a month, reports Chronicle Live.
