Gogglebox star Izzi Warner's children join her on the sofa in rare appearance on show

Izzi Warner's children made a rare appearance on Gogglebox on Friday night.

The Channel 4 star's children Bessie and Bobby, who she shares with boyfriend Grant, featured on the show after usually being accompanied by sister Ellie and sometime their pet dogs.

The episode saw the usual people giving their opinions on multiple programmes such as E4 hit Married At First Sight UK and dark comedy Bad Sisters.

Izzi and Ellie are rarely joined by other family members including their partners and other family members.

One scene that the sisters featured in showed 'Auntie Ellie' giving her niece and nephew an ice lolly which Izzi wasn't too happy about.

Bessie was sat on her mum Izzi's lap as Bobby looked adorable in a football kit.

Ellie then went on to bite off a bit of Bobby's lolly as she gave them to the kids.

Initially it wasn't known if Friday's episode would go ahead as planned due to the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

The death of the monarch meant that there were changes in TV scheduling, with multiple channels showing rolling news throughout the day.

However Channel 4 made the decision that Gogglebox would air as planned but it featured no adverts, meaning it was a 45 minute programme.

A spokesman said: " Channel 4 exists to offer viewers an alternative and that is particularly important at times like this. Gogglebox is a much loved national institution and it will air as planned tonight bringing a valuable sense of continuity for many of our viewers."

Many other channels changed their usual schedules after the death of the Queen, following seven decades of public service.

On Friday ITV pulled Loose Women and soaps Emmerdale and Coronation Street from the schedule as the nation enters an official period of mourning for the late Head of State which will continue until her funeral.

The royal mourning period will take place until seven days after the Queen's funeral.

Fans of Gogglebox seemed happy that the show came back.

One person took to Twitter to say: "Really enjoyed #Gogglebox last night. It's just so funny and heartwarming."

As a second wrote: "Thank you Gogglebox, much needed tonight."

A third commented: "In such difficult times we need programme's like #Gogglebox well done to channel 4."

While one person said: "New series of Gogglebox makes me sooooooo happy," and another added: "Love love love gogglebox. Its a welcome relief after a bad day."

Channel 4 changed its schedule on Thursday as they pulled Katie Price's eagerly anticipated documentary that had been due to premiere.

Alex Mahon, Chief Executive of Channel 4 said: "On behalf of Channel 4, we are deeply saddened by the death of Her Majesty The Queen and our thoughts and condolences are with her family and the whole country.

"For over 70 years, she has united this nation, supporting the right of everyone to have the opportunity to succeed and celebrating the rich diversity of our communities."

This weekend, the Daily Mirror and Sunday Mirror celebrate the life of Her Majesty the Queen with a commemorative special filled with all the key moments from Britain’s longest reigning monarch. Be sure to pick up your copy of the Daily Mirror and Sunday Mirror to get both pullouts.
