Popular Gogglebox family QUIT the show
They've been on the show since 2020
Although series 19 of Gogglebox concluded on Friday 27th May, a lot of the popular cast such as Jenny and Lee, Ellie and Izzi and The Malones have already confirmed they'll be back for series 20 in September, but not everybody will return!
It's now been confirmed The Baggs family, made up of dad Terry, mum Lisa and sons Joe and George, have quit the show due to exciting new opportunities that they have coming up.
The family from Essex have released a statement about their Gogglebox future, writing: 'After 3 incredible seasons on Channel 4’s Gogglebox we have taken the decision to leave the show. We have loved every second of being part of the Gogglebox family and it’s truly been the opportunity of a lifetime.
'With lots of exciting opportunities approaching for us all, we just couldn’t commit to filming another series, but are so grateful for the opportunity.
'Thank you for all of your support whilst we have been on the show and over on TikTok. We hope that you’re as excited as we are for what’s coming next!' (sic)
Fans and co-stars of the family were quick to comment on Lisa's post, with Ellie Warner writing: 'All the best lovely people ❤️❤️❤️'.
A fan then commented: 'So sad 😔 gonna miss that laugh of yours ❤️', with another writing: 'This makes me sad! But all the best❤️'. A third then wrote: 'Aww 😢😢 gonna miss you guys have a great summer and wish you all the best of luck with whatever you do in future.x'. (sic)
Check out the Gogglebox cast from series 19 below:
Ellie and Izzi Warner
Sisters Ellie and Izzi Warner from Leeds have also become fan favourites after first joining the show in 2015.
Izzi gave birth to a beautiful baby girl called Bessie Rose in early 2020, whilst Ellie recently announced she was expecting her first child with her boyfriend Nat.
In early 2022, Izzi also introduced fans to her brand new puppy called Cookie.
Ellie and Izzi took a break from Gogglebox during season 19, following Ellie's boyfriend Nat being left 'fighting for his life' after he was hit by a car during a night out in Leeds in March. Ellie later revealed on 13th May that her and sister Izzi would be returning to our screens that night, thanking fans for their well wishes.
Ellie and Izzi returned for series 24.
Pete and Sophie
Brother and sister duo Pete and Sophie Sandiford have become one of the most popular castings in Gogglebox history! The funny siblings first joined the cast in 2017.
It seems that comedy runs in the family for these two, with the recent revelation that the pair are related to none other than Paul Chuckle himself!
After getting married to his girlfriend Paige Yeomans, the pair welcomed their first child into the world in 2021, with little Jimmy already making an appearance on Gogglebox. In December 2022, Pete then confirmed Paige is pregnant with the couple's second child.
During series 21, Pete confirmed the birth of his second child, and the pair returned for series 24.
Jenny and Lee
Best friends Jenny and Lee are also back, they first joined the show on series 4 back in 2014! The pair have us in fits of giggles with their banter both on and off the show.
Jenny and Lee, who film the show from Lee's caravan in Hull, have been best friends for over 20 years and often delight fans by sharing throwback photos of each other.
In series 19, Jenny and Lee took a break from the show after Jenny underwent surgery for a minor illness. However, the pair were back for series 20 and have appeared on the show since.
The Malone family
The Malone family, made up of Tom, Julie, Tom Jnr and Shaun, are one of the most popular families with fans. They first joined the cast in 2014.
In February 2021, just one day before series 17, Tom Jr announced he'd quit the show.
In March 2021, Tom and Julie's daughter Vanessa joined the show! During series 20, the Malone family also introduced their brand new puppy. In October 2023, the family revealed the sad news that their beloved dog Dave had sadly passed away.
Abbie and Georgia
Durham girls Abbie and Georgia first joined the show back in 2018.
In 2022, just one month before series 19 hit our screens, Georgia announced she was expecting her first baby. After giving birth to a baby boy in July, baby Hugh James Newby occasionally appears.
Dave and Shirley
Welsh couple Dave and Shirley, who have been married for over 40 years, first joined the show back in 2015 and have been fan favourites since.
The Siddiqui family
The Siddiqui family, made up of Umar, Baasit and their dad Sid, have become Gogglebox legends since joining the show back in series 1.
Brother Raza also occasionally makes an appearance on the show, but due to working away, he can't always commit to filming.
Giles and Mary
Gogglebox fans fell in love with Giles and his wife Mary when they joined the cast in 2015, mainly due to Giles' hilarious stories... Much to Mary's annoyance.
The Worthingtons
The Worthingtons, made up of Alison, her husband George and her daughter Helena, joined the cast in series 10. In 2019, Helena welcomed a baby boy called Edwin, and he's already made his debut.

Amira and Iqra first joined the show back in 2017 with their other friend Amani, but now it's just the two of them leaving viewers in stitches with their comments.

Michael, Sally, Jake and Harry
Ahead of episode four of series 24, Gogglebox bosses announced a brand new family had joined the show, in the form of Michael, Sally, Jake and Harry from Kent.
The Baggs family first joined the Channel 4 show back in 2020, going on to appear in three series, including 16, 18 and 19.
Back in 2021, the family were forced to deny claims they'd been axed from the show, after they were missing from the 17th series.
After a publication published a story to say the family had been removed from the show, Lisa Baggs wrote on Instagram: 'I can categorically say this is a total LIE! Due to covid restrictions we are unable to film the current series.
'Channel 4 have been wonderful to work with and we hope to be back one day soon.' (sic)
It hasn't yet been confirmed by Channel 4 who will replace The Baggs family for series 20, but fans will be hoping to see some brand new cast members.
Gogglebox will return in September.
