RARE PHOTOS: Channel 4 s gogglebox how giles makes a living after retiring at 21 - The Real Truth

Undoubtedly one of the most popular Friday night programmes, Gogglebox has established a huge fanbase since it first hit our screens nine years ago. Although the concept of watching people watch television on your television sounds wacky, households up and down the country tune in for each series and have become fans of the families, couples and friends featured on the show.

The lighthearted programme has proved so popular that spin-off series have been established from it. Gogglesprogs (watching children watch television), Vlogglebox (watching teenagers watch YouTubers), and Celebrity Gogglebox have all attracted scores of viewers.

Gogglebox, in its original form, has birthed celebrities in its own right too, WiltshireLive reports. Giles Wood and Mary Killen, who are based not too far from Bristol, in Wiltshire, have garnered a cult following since they first appeared on the show in 2015.
