Gogglebox Ireland returns tonight with both new and old faces

Premiering on Irish TVs later tonight, a number of familiar faces will return for the new series of Gogglebox Ireland with two new families also set to join the madness.

Gogglebox is a funny one – it shouldn’t work and yet somehow it really does. Who knew that the concept of watching other people watch telly could be so entertaining? Returning to our screens later this evening, a new series of the popular show will premiere on Virgin Media One at 9pm.

All Gogglebox favourites will be back for the new series, with two new families also joining the lineup. Tonight’s ep sees the action head to Co Kilkenny (a Gogglebox first!) where the Saunders Family are ready and waiting. While in Dublin, Tallaght native Lariche and her husband Gary will also feature, along with Lariche’s younger brothers Gilmar and Blair.

Weighing in on a range of different topics, this season will see families chat about Covid-19, lockdown and government affairs amongst other things. Obviously not forgetting the many (many) boxsets and TV shows we’ve all been bingeing over the past few months too.

To recap: Gogglebox Ireland, Virgin Media One, 9pm. You get the remote, I’ll get the snacks.
