Gogglebox fans rejoice as Mary fixes what's been bothering them for ages

Gogglebox fans were pleased with what they were seeing when the show visited Mary and Giles tonight.

The husband and wife duo were back on the Channel 4 show for another week. But it wasn't the couple's opinions on the TV shows that got viewers talking.

Last month, fans said they felt 'concerned' after spotting a certain detail in Giles and Mary's home.

That being Giles' blue chair which he is more often than not seen occupying throughout the programme - which Gogglebox viewers branded "filthy".

So now it seems Mary has taken matters into her own hand as she was seen steaming the piece of furniture - making it look almost as good as new.

And fans were relieved.

"I feel like all of my hopes, dreams, prayers and tweets have been answered! Hallelujah! #gogglebox," tweeted one.

Another said: "Hooray!! Giles and Mary listen to Twitter and are cleaning Giles' chair #Gogglebox."

"I’ve been wanting that chair cleaned for ages! Nearly annoys me as the ‘matching wallpaper chair’ next to it #gogglebox," a third added.

A fourth rejoiced: "THANK GOD they are FINALLY cleaning that chair! #Gogglebox."

"No way are Giles and Mary steam cleaning that filthy chair #gogglebox," another added.

Mary and Giles joined Gogglebox back in 2015 after being approached to take part and have been a hit amongst fans ever since.

The couple, of more than 30 years , met when they were just 21 when Mary was a model and Giles was studying at Wimbledon Art School.

The popular couple also have two daughters together.
