Welsh husband and wife Dave and Shirley Griffiths have taken to social media ahead of the return of Channel 4’s Gogglebox. The popular show, which sees some of the nation's sharpest armchair critics come together, returns on Friday, February 24.
Dave and Shirley, who are from Caerphilly, have been on the show since 2015 and are fan favourites. They are known for their hilarious quips and regularly update their social media followers with their lives on and off screens.
Last summer, the married couple took a break from filming but returned to the show in the autumn. In their latest update, Dave and Shirley shared their excitement ahead of the new series and confirmed they would be back for season 21.

One person replied: “Welcome back my lovelies!” A second then wrote: “Keep me entertained tonight dai, need it after that drive home with my old man”
A third added: “Yaaaay ! Missed u guys” And a fourth said: “Looking forward to it, best show on the telly,” ahead of Gogglebox’s return.
Dave and Shirley are the second Gogglebox pair to share their excitement ahead of the new series. Earlier in the week, Jenny Newby and Lee Riley released a similar social media update.
Sharing the news, Jenny and Lee posted a video and jokingly captioned it: "Sorry folks we are back see you all on Friday 9pm." In the clip, Jenny described how the pair were "still the same and still sat on the same, sodding lumpy cushion."
Lee, meanwhile, laughed and said "still as daft as ever" as Jenny put her hand in the air and said "yes" before Lee added: "You!"
Jenny replied: "Who me? I am, you're right there," and Lee said: "Back filming guys so we will see you all on Friday." Jenny signed off by saying: "Yeah looking forward to it... Bye!"
