When is Gogglebox back on TV in 2021?

Friday nights just aren't the same without a fix of Gogglebox.

But fans won't have to wait too much longer for the next installment of the hit Channel 4 show.

Each Friday night, we get an hour’s glimpse into the homes of families up and down the country to see their real reactions to the telly of the week.

Despite it being a strange concept, the award-winning show has been a firm favourite among TV-lovers since its debut in 2013.

The most recent series came to a close last December, and now it's already set for a return later this month for its 17th series.

When will the next series air?

The next series will air on Friday, February 26 at 9pm on Channel 4.

The 2021 series should be 15 episodes long, as seen in seasons before.

It'll fill the slot that was previously taken by Russell T Davies' drama, It’s A Sin - which has been a huge success.

Which cast members will be taking part?

While Channel 4 hasn't officially confirmed the full cast, a few members have given away some clues.

Lee and Jenny teased they would be returning for the next series in a Christmas message to fans on Twitter last year, where Lee said: “We’ll be back in February!”

Meanwhile Julie Malone recently showed fans a behind-the-scenes preview on Twitter.

She filmed a portaloo in her garden that the crew had been using during filming, with the message: "We'll be back soon".

Sophie Sandiford has also let slip she was going to be back on the sofa with her brother Pete during a discussion with a fan on social media.
