Gogglebox fans crown new pair best stars on Channel 4 show

Googlebox viewers have switched their allegiance after ranking a different couple the best stars on the Channel 4 show rather than the usual favourites.

All our usual favourites were back tonight, discussing the latest TV shows and films.

Highlights included Sophie and Pete reacting to the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire winner and the Malone family having their say on the latest lockdown rules.

But lots of viewers were in agreement tonight - that one couple were the standout stars of the show.

Earlier this year, the ECHO ran a poll to find out who your favourite stars were.

Though their popularity was always known, Lee and Jenny won, getting a majority 39% of the vote.

However, tonight everyone thought regulars Giles and Mary, who previously came third in our survey, were the best.

Dale said: " # Gogglebox after # Eastenders is perfect timing tonight. Giles and Mary grew from being the most irritating to the best to watch over time."

Padraig wrote: "Why on Earth haven't Channel 4 commissioned a TV show around Giles and Mary."

Peter said: "Mary and Giles are on fire tonight."

Sid tweeted: "Giles and Mary on gogglebox >>>."

And Lauren wrote: "If Mary and Giles aren’t you favourites you’re lying."

Giles regularly amuses viewers with his comments and interpretations of what the couple have been watching, often finishing every remark by saying Mary's name.
