Another famous face is set to join the Celebrity Gogglebox sofa with her best friend — and the dynamic duo will most certainly keep the audience entertained.
Loose Women star Jane McDonald has joined the lineup for the fifth series of the TV-obsessed show and will appear alongside her best friend of 30 years, backing singer Sue Ravey.
Ravey moved into Jane's home following the death of her partner Eddie Rothe to lung cancer in 2021 and the pair will soon appear on the show side-by-side when it starts again later this month.
The British Soap Awards host told fans on Twitter: "I'm going to be appearing on Celebrity Gogglebox with my best friend Sue – it's going to be an absolute blast!
"We’ve shared some unforgettable moments over the years but I am really looking forward to spending time together on this wonderful show."
Springwatch presenter Chris Packham has also been announced as a TV critic on the reality show and will appear alongside his stepdaughter, Megan.
The naturalist said: "Gogglebox is a real barometer of what the nation is talking about. I am looking forward for Megan and I to add our two-bits to the conversation."
Other stars set for the sofa include Davina McCall and her boyfriend Michael Douglas, and comedian Katherine Ryan and her husband Bobby.
She told The Sun: "It’s usually just the dogs who get to see us watch TV, so we’re excited to welcome viewers into our home as we decompress in our favourite spot – the sofa.
"We’ve been huge Gogglebox fans for years and we are thrilled to be taking part."
Celebrity Gogglebox star Babatunde Aléshé will feature in the new series alongside friend and comedian Mo Gilligan, plus appearances from Zoe Ball, Rylan Clark, Denise Van Outen, Shaun Ryder and Nick Grimshaw.
