Gogglebox stars have shared the disappointing news declaring the end date of the latest season - and fans of the show are gutted.
The Channel 4 show, currently in its 19th season, stars Tom and Julie from the Malone family in Manchester, who are one of the longest-running families on the programme having appeared since the fourth series. They shared an update on their Instagram page announcing when it's coming to an end, reports Manchester Evening News.
Tom Snr and Julie, who appear on the show alongside son Sean and sometimes daughter Vanessa, revealed this week's episode is the final one in this series. Tom Snr said in a video shared to the couple's joint Instagram page as they donned matching pale blu t-shirts over the weekend: "We're getting near the end of the series now. Julie is throwing out these big words. I said it's the second to last night, Julie is saying what?" Julie then chipped in: "It's the penultimate night."
