Gogglebox Baggs family joined show after son went viral on TikTok

Gogglebox fans have been entertained by the Baggs family since they joined the Channel 4 show in 2020.

The family, from Great Dunmow in Essex, is made up of dad Terry, mum Lisa and their sons Joe and George. But many fans may not know how the Baggs' ended up on the hit Friday night programme.

When they aren't giving their verdict on the latest telly offerings, Terry is a car salesman, Joe works in recruitment and George is training to be a plumber. But they're also pretty well known in the world of TikTok, according to the Daily Star, which is how they were scouted for Gogglebox.

Joe, who boasts over 846,000 followers on TikTok, joined the online platform in September 2019 and mainly posts joke videos with the rest of his family. Over 637,000 people also follow Joe's younger brother George on the site.

His first TikTok post was posted in May of this year and, like his brother's account, George also shares lots of videos with his famous family. George appears to be the main joker of the Baggs family and is often the main feature of his brother's videos.

Joe and George often share hilarious dancing videos and pranks with their mother. Lisa also keeps fans updated on Instagram, often posting snaps of her family.

She often posts snaps with her Terry, Joe, George, and her oldest son Danny Bailey, who has yet to make an appearance on Gogglebox.

Gogglebox airs Fridays at 9pm on Channel 4 and All 4
