Gogglebox is one of the biggest shows on Channel 4 and pulls in millions of viewers each week - but what do the stars do when they aren't on TV?

The programme first hit our screens back in 2013 - and has since gone from strength to strength, introducing viewers to new families in all corners of the UK.

We've put together a guide to share what the armchair critics do outside of the much-loved show.

Regarded as one of Gogglebox's most-popular duos, Jenny and Lee in Hull have taken viewers on a rollercoaster ride of emotions over the years - from belly-laughs to a little cry.

According to reports, the pair met more than 20 years ago when Jenny was the landlady of the Crown Inn pub, and Lee was a regular customer.

Ellie and Izzi

The Yorkshire-based sisters joined the show back in 2015, and quickly became fan favourites.

On her Instagram page, Izzi describes herself as an "aspiring domestic goddess" and a "part-time couch potato".

Izzi is mum to a son, Bobby, and a seven-month old girl, Bessie Rose.

Her older sister Ellie is a hairdresser in Leeds.

According to reports, dad Tom Senior works as a lorry driver and mum Julie works as a receptionist.

Elsewhere, Tom Junior works as a freelance model and streetdance choreographer - and has worked with Rita Ora and the Black Eyed Peas.
