In a dismal 2016 of death, despair, misery, Brexit, Bake Off dissolution, etc etc, this week hasn't been so bad.

There was the Love Island baby news, the reports that Justin Bieber is going to rent a MASSIVE PARTY MANSION in north London (to which we plan to be invited, somehow), and now it's been revealed that Niall Horan and Olly Murs are joining Celebrity Gogglebox!

TOGETHER!

Yup, they will be sitting on a sofa watching telly together.

What we would give to be on that sofa.

The episode is in aid of Cancer Research, and will also star Jamie Vardy, Daniel Sturridge, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Olly said in a statement: "I’m such a big fan of Gogglebox so being able to be on it with Niall is amazing, especially when it’s for such a brilliant cause like Stand Up To Cancer.

"We all need to play a part in beating cancer so let’s all join together and raise as much as we can."

And Niall added: "Olly and I had a great laugh filming Gogglebox and hope that we can raise as much as possible for such a great cause.

"With every penny raised going towards finding cures for cancer, we’re honoured to be a part of Stand Up to Cancer’s fundraising this year."

In far more depressing Gogglebox news, Steph and Dom have sadly quit the show.

WHYYYYYY?

"We think it’s important that everyone gets their chance to be on Gogglebox and give their opinion," Steph and Dom told The Sun Online.:

Celebrity Gogglebox is on Channel 4 on Friday October 21.
