Gogglebox icons Jenny and Lee booze it up at local pub and celebrate show's 10th birthday

Gogglebox fan-favourites Jenny and Lee celebrated the show's anniversary with a boozy night out.

The duo, who are close pals, went down to the pub to have a couple of drinks and shared a picture from their trip.

They took to their shared Instagram page to share a short clip with their 740,000 followers.

"Hi everyone, we would just like to wish all the families on Gogglebox, past and present, from the chief execs to the PDs and to the runners, Happy Birthday!" Lee said to the camera.

"10 years of Gogglebox today."

Jenny then added: "And to the families, who make it Gogglebox, cheers," before they lifted their glasses.

Gogglebox co-star Ellie Warner said: "Cheers. Happy birthday!" while Beth Ditto posted: "You two are the best!!!!"

"When I first heard of the concept, I thought it was bizarre and would never catch on," one person said. "After the 1st week, I was hooked. Now Friday night isn't the same without it!"

One person posted: "You 2 are the most amazing people and don't fail to cheer me up every time I watch you. happy birthday gogglebox."

Last month, the duo returned to Instagram after two months away from the platform.

Sitting in their famous caravan together, Jenny and Lee beamed as they waved to their fans and began their new Instagram update.

They exclaimed: "Hi, we’re back!"

Jenny added: "We’re still the same, still sat on the sodding lumpy cushions.”

Laughing, Lee then joked, “We’re still as daft as ever,” as Jenny quipped, “Yeah – you’re right there!"

"Back filming guys so see you all Friday," Lee went on to reveal, as Jenny added: "Looking forward to it!"

Since first appearing on the Channel 4 show in 2014, Jenny and Lee have become Gogglebox royalty, winning fans over with their hilarious double act from their caravan in Hull.

The much-loved duo go way back, first meeting when Jenny was the landlady of a pub Lee was a regular customer in.

Since meeting at The Crown Inn in Paull, the armchair critics have become inseparable - with Lee even describing his longtime pal as family in the past.
