Gogglebox Ireland seeking TV fanatics from across the country to apply

Gogglebox Ireland is on the lookout for 'the wittiest and most opinionated telly fanatics'.

It will be returning to TV this autumn and people from across the country are invited to apply for the new season.

The show is interested to hear from couples who are news lovers, families, members of the clergy, groups of older life-long friends, and more.

Virgin Media Television said: "In a show where you sit and watch the TV, with other people sitting and watching TV, there has never been a show that had as many viewers thinking to themselves: 'I could do that...'

"Well, if you reckon you could be as entertaining to watch on telly talking about different programmes, then you'll be happy to hear, we are looking for new households to take part!

"We are on the lookout for groups of older life-long friends who love nothing more than chatting about what they watch on the box.

"We’re also interested to hear from couples who are news lovers, as well as families. Despite them proving to be a lesser-spotted breed for Gogglebox Ireland, we'd still love to hear from telly-addicted members of the clergy!

"We want to hear from everyone across the country who have plenty to say about the world of television and want to join us in having a laugh. So if you are just as gripped by the ‘First Dates’ as you are by ‘The Sunday Game,’ and you know your Daniel O’Connell from your Daniel O’Donnell, why not apply?"

To apply, email casting@kiteentertainment.com with your contact details and with details of who is in your group, where you're based, what you like to watch together and a photo of you all together, if possible.

The process is open to everyone across the country between now and the middle of August.
