Gogglebox issues warning to viewers after Pete Sandiford's 'painful' trick

Gogglebox fans said it looked 'painful' as Pete smashes an Easter egg on his head.

As Pete and his younger sister Sophie prepared for tonight's viewings, they both tucked into a pair of Easter eggs. Believing he knew the perfect way to crack onE open, he let Sophie know his secret.

He said: "Did you know the way to open an Easter egg is to smash it off your head?" Sophie questioned whether or not the method hurt but Pete was more focused on cracking on with the process.

He added: "You just hit the pointy bit off your head. Watch this." As he cupped the egg, he smashes it against his forehead, letting viewers hear a large thud as it connects.

Sophie laughed and said he "fractured his forehead" as her brother leans over in pain rubbing his newly formed headache. Fans seemed to be more concerned about where he learned to do such a thing.

One viewer said: "Oh Pete!!! Ouch #gogglebox". Another said: "Pete really smashed the Easter egg against his head? #Gogglebox ". Another viewer added: "Hurt my head just watching it lol".

The official account for the show tweeted out a disclaimer along with a clip of the moment. They said: "DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME".

Gogglebox airs Fridays at 9pm on Channel 4 and All4
