Why is Gogglebox not on tonight and has it finished?
It’s fair to say the Gogglebox families helped get us through Friday evenings, with the likes of The Malones and Giles and Mary making us howl with laughter every Friday night.
But the Channel 4 show recently went off air to make way for the celebrity version, and to give the stars of the show a break from filming.
Hopefully, we won’t have to wait long until our favourite Goggleboxers are back on our screens for a brand new series.
So, when is Gogglebox back on Channel 4? Here’s what we know...
Why is Gogglebox not on?
Gogglebox is currently taking a break from filming, with the celebrity version due to air in June.
Announcing the series was coming to an end, Jenny, 64, told her Instagram followers that she was heading back home after living with Lee, 51.
When Lee wished everyone a ‘happy Friday’, Jenny replied it was a ‘sad Friday’ because it meant she was moving out of Lee’s caravan.
Lee then said: “Oh yeah it’s our last filming week this week so we are filming today.”
Jenny then revealed: "I'm going home soon," as Lee pretended to celebrate.
The caption alongside the funny video reads: "Have a great Friday everyone last week of filming for us of series 17 ".
