Gogglebox 2021 has arrived as we join TV fans across the UK as they offer commentary on popular programmes. Expect plenty of laughs, scathing comments, and strong opinions each week as these lovable households continue to tell us what they really think about recent TV shows. 

Before this series the last time we saw the Gogglebox stars was in a Christmas special, but they're finally back to bring some much needed joy to our Friday nights.

Here's who's in the current series, what they're watching, when it's on, funny quotes and more...

When is Gogglebox 2021 on Channel 4?

New Gogglebox 2021 episodes began on Friday February 26 at 9pm on Channel 4, when the much-loved programme entered its 17th season. Previously It's A Sin had taken that evening slot where all five episodes of Russell T. Davies' drama were broadcast. 

The second episode of Gogglebox 2021 airs on Friday March 5 on Channel 4 at 9pm.
