I think this series has so far been a return to form for Gogglebox after the last series, which wasn't as good as previous ones. Hopefully this good run can continue.

It's been said on there a few times both by the commentator and by themselves during conversations. They met at Teacher Training College it's been said.
June is still very School marmish, she talks to Leon like his Mum ![]() |

Much better this week. They seemed natural and more into what they were watching and less aware of the cameras.

I thought last night's show was a bit dull.

I was being sarcastic as I knew they were teachers but they do not seem to know much. But they could have been PE teachers I suppose.
Teachers can't be expected to know everything. |

I thought the selection of programmes was much better last night: no Strictly, X Factor or The Hunt. Good to see the Supervet and that doctor programme included.

Another FM is now asking what you're referring to. For the sake of clarity for those who don't know. Leon, 79, taught history at Dingle Vale Secondary Modern, Gateacre Comprehensive, Yew Tree Comprehensive in Dovecot, Croxteth Comprehensive and Clubmoor Comprehensive, and June, 76, taught English at Gateacre Comprehensive for 26 years. They met at Alsager teacher training college (Leon is from Liverpool while June comes from Tredegar in South Wales) and have been married for 53 years. Pretty sure Leon was a Head master at some point, one of his ex pupils commented on it in one of the news paper articles. It got a mention and linky in the original Gogglebox thread. |

Now I didnt know that. She's obviously lived in the North-west for a long time because I can't detect a hint of Welsh there.... and Tredegar is proper valleys - either Rhumney or Sirhowy, I can't remember.
Really? Even us North-Easterners (Teessiders, if you will) got that from June's accent, "Isn't it Mary?" (Is my default addendum to anything I say to OH these days) |

June - I only pick up Liverpool from her, though some aspects of that accent are quite similar. I know what you mean though - my gran thought that Huw Edwards sounded very posh and English, though he has an obvious (if softened) Welsh accent. I'm generally pretty good at spotting it. |

I believe Mary is a columnist on one of the broadsheet newspapers. Very intelligent.

You know they weren't PE teachers, this humour/sarcasm might come over in your head or with the 10 or so people who watch this live and post one-liners with you as it airs, but it doesn't work outside that narrow frame.

I'm afraid your information is wrong, Prince. Leon and June tweeted that they have recently celebrated their 55th Wedding Anniversary.
I assumed everyone copped on that it was a cut n paste, maybe I should have thrown the link in, to make that clearer, but I didn't think anyone would be interested in the article as it's old news. |

They'll be back! The finals of both shows are only a few weeks away, so no doubt we'll be treated to the Goggleboxers watching excitedly and pretending they don't already know who won from the original broadcast a few days beforehand.

One of the annoying things about Gogglebox. This week their showreel had a 1pm weekday news bulletin, that everyone was supposed to be watching live!!
Like Leon saying that the Viking show was the thing he'd been watching.........'oh, it's that show I've been watching' Or the Hull woman will say 'whats this'? and Mavis Riley will say 'I dern't know' So they obviously are not watching live TV or they'd know what they were tuning in to |
