The cast of the hit Channel 4 show, including Pete and Sophie Sandiford, have kept us laughing for eight years, here we look at why Googlebox is such an enduring hit
Watching people watch television sounds more boring than waiting for a doctor's appointment – but in recent years, millions of Brits have done just that.
Instead the 60 minutes are filled with siblings enjoying a cup of tea, a couple lightly bickering over the pronunciation of a word, or friends discussing Line of Duty theories. When I take my pew on the sofa at 9pm every Friday I know that absolutely nothing is going to happen. Instead of running away in fear of something so mundane, I bathe in the great comfort that its simplicity provides and take joy in how much the cast clearly enjoy being around each other.
Background: The pair film from Lee’s caravan in Hull, and originally met when Jenny was a landlady at a pub while Lee was a regular customer.Their best moment: While watching Line of Duty, Jenny dutifully kept notes on her theories as to who H was. She provided much hilarity when she mixed them up with her shopping list saying, “I've got Hastings is bent ... What does that say? Cat litter?” Lee accidentally eating Jenny’s face mask with his crisps thinking it was a dip is a close second.
Their best moment: It's not just their commentary at the TV that has us laughing - we also enjoyed when they forgot to put the lid on the popcorn machine and it popped off all around the room, and when Pete asked Sophie if she'd call their mum after spotting a spider.
