Just watching Celebrity Googlebox tonight, and thinking how uninspiring all their Celebrity homes are??

I doubt if many of them are their real homes, far more likely to just be filming locations that they just turn up to for a couple of hours to watch what they're told to watch and film their comments!

It was just nice to watch a gogglebox without hearing Sophies fake flirty annoying giggle at everything Pete says

Definitely!

I thought Clare Balding seemed really rude to her wife.

I thought it must be her mother until my partner explained who it was!
 
Denise van Outens house is used but I doubt that was Tom Jones. I had to add to this because I love Tom Jones. I thought he was great with Anne Marie. He is my secret crush and has been for years. When he said he was dyslexic but is good at reading so he can read a text but can’t reply. Anne Marie said I’m dyslexic too and the opposite. That’s good he said we can get together I’ll read the text and you can do the reply. 🥰
 
He just annoys me full stop. In the war he would be the spiv selling stuff on the black market. He has that air about him.
my husband always takes the piss out of his uber overdone mockney accent. he said he's like the husband in the Catherine Tate sketch where he goes "What are you like?"

I dislike Denise van Outens bloke. When she met him he was a city trader. When he asked her to marry him he went to his bosses and said obvs as I’m now engaged to a mega famous person I’m handing in my notice but I’d like £10 000 to go. They said well you can go but we’re not paying you. So he stole a list of clients names. Anyway it ended up in an employment tribunal. He had to give all the data back he’d stolen but didn’t get any type of compensation. Now he spends his days living off Denise blagging free stuff off Instagram and pretending he’s nice!
 
Apparently, regardless of how many family members there are, each family is paid £1,500 a month, or £125 for every hour they have to watch.

And then of course many start earning a lot more as 'influencers'.
Haven’t read further down the thread yet as to whether anyone else has replied to this but I know for a fact that the cast of gogglebox can’t actually do much in terms of being an influencer/getting more famous/well known for something other than gogglebox. Take for instance the lad from the malone family who left the show, it was because he was getting veryyyyy popular on tik tok, same as the baggs family, they had to weigh up what was best, making a name for themselves by being on TV once a week or making a name for themselves on Instagram/social media and earning from that. They all say it’s because they didn’t have time/were pursuing other opportunities but it’s basically just what they have to say for quitting the show lol.
They also get all their food and drink given to them for filming on top of the £1.5k wage, they can order as much or as little as they want and it gets dropped off at the start of the week for filming.

So if this is a "fact" what about scarlett moffatt then?

The Baggs family? They were only on for one series and were rubbish! 😂
