Gogglebox's Siddiqui family share first photo of mum who doesn't appear on Channel 4 show

The Siddiqui family pleased Gogglebox fans when they shared a photo featuring their unseen mum.

The much loved Derby family have been regulars on the show for years.

Baasit, Umar and their dad Sid are much-loved by viewers, while other members of their family, such as sibling Raza put in an appearance on the show as well.

But Nasreen, who doesn't feature on the Channel 4 show, appeared in a photo shared by Baasit Siddiqui.

She was standing by the side of husband Sid and Baasit's daughter Amelia on the Instagram post, the Mirror reports.

Smiling broadly as she posed with her husband and granddaughter, Baasit said: "I was trying to get a photo of all three of these guys staring at the camera and smiling!

"Dad is like a statue with that smile but Mum and Amelia we're doing it on purpose."

He continued: "Each time one of them would smile the other would look the other way or swap! The Siddiqui ladies are a stubborn and cheeky bunch."

The photos were certainly a hit with their 5.9k followers, with one fan commenting: "Love these pics. Especially the one where your Mum is smiling."

Another added: "Your mam is adorable first time I've seen her and don't want to even mention your handsome dad love your little family."
