Since series 15 of Gogglebox ended back in May, fans of the popular show have been loving Celebrity Gogglebox. But, after the final episode aired last Friday, it's now been revealed when the popular show will return to our TV screens with its usual cast.
OG Gogglebox, which features the likes of new dad Shaun Malone and sisters Ellie and Izzi Warner, will finally return to Channel 4 at 9pm on Friday 11th September.
This calls for a celebratory Oreo or five, tbh.
A number of the current cast announced the news on their social media pages. Best friends Jenny and Lee said: 'Great news all! #Gogglebox returns to Channel 4, 9pm on September 11th!📺'.
Married couple Giles and Mary updated fans saying: 'Nutties!! It’s been confirmed that #Gogglebox will return to Channel 4 on September 11th at 9pm! See you all then 📺'. (sic)
