Gogglebox fans raging at man's first date 'no no' behaviour

Gogglebox viewers were turned off tonight after witnessing a “car crash of a first date”.

This week’s episode featured a clip from the hit Channel 4 show First Dates, as mum of two Becky looked to find love.

She was paired with Lee, 36, who was hoping to melt her heart and whisk her away into the sunset.

According to former Spice Girl Mel C, who featured in tonight's celebrity Googlebox episode, the pair would look good together.

But looks aside, things went from bad to worse as the date started off with Lee and Becky nearly spilling a full glass of wine between them.

During dinner, Lee threw a spanner into the works by asking the waiter to keep him posted on the football scores, with Manchester United playing a game during the date.

That did not go down well at all with viewers - or with the celebrities appearing on the show.

Iain Sterling, who is the narrator for ITV's Love Island, said: “You’re not meant to do that.”

And Love Island host Laura Whitmore agreed, adding: “Definitely not on your first date.”

Fans of the show took to Twitter to slam Lee, who at one point during the date phoned a friend to once again check on the score.

One person said: “This is a car crash of a first date. The woman is too eager and all the man wants to do is find out the football scores. Just bin him off immediately.”

Another said: “Guy asking the waiter for the football scores in front of his first date. Absolutely no no.”

A third added: “#Gogglebox urgh text book lesson of what not to go for. She dodged a bullet.”
