She's famous for her role on the sofa as an armchair critic on the popular Channel Four show Gogglebox but Sophie Sandiford looked totally different as she headed to Lytham Festival. The Gogglebox favourite, who is best known for curling up in her comfies in front of the telly for theChannel Four reality show, cut a bold figure in a neon green blazer at the music festival.
She teamed her smart blazer with a dark top and a pair of blue jeans as she posed alongside her brother Pete's rarely-seen wife Paige for a photo shared on her Instagram. Both ladies gave a thumbs-up to the camera as they warded off the rain in clear ponchos.
"Sahjy and Pahjy," Sophie captioned the snap. And the compliments came pouring in for her look. Fans asked where she got the blazer from and cbradshaw1984 joked about the poncho: "Nice see through outfit.....is that Gucci?"

Siblings Sophie and Pete joined the show in 2017 and are firm favourites with fans for their quick takes on the latest TV programmes, classic films and breaking news from their family home in Blackpool. Off-screen, however, they prefer to keep their private lives out of the spotlight.
Pete casually confirmed his baby son's arrival while on the red carpet at the National Television Awards in September. The TV star told the Mirror at the time that he was "overwhelmed" by his new role and on being a father Pete said: "It's a bit overwhelming, got it all going on at the moment," before revealing the sex of his first child. "He's cool little lad, takes after his mum not me," he added.
The previous October he caused quite the stir when he shared the first photo of himself with Paige saying: "My Mrs and best mate what more could I ask for, don't worry @sophiesandiford1 you are a close second best friend."
And in November, after welcoming their son Jimmy, he confirmed that he and Paige had said 'I do' six months earlier with a stunning photo from the big day on Instagram. Paige looked stunning in a white gown with her husband who was suited and booted as they walked by the sea. "Happy 6 month wedding anniversary to my best mate, wife and the best mummy in the world @paigesandiford," Pete lovingly shared alongside the post.
Last month in comical Gogglebox scenes Sophie jokingly squabbled with Pete as she revealed she was dating. Pete asked how her relationship was going and she proudly stated that she had 'snared a hunk.'
But Pete replied disbelievingly: “I still don't think he's six foot. I don't give a s*** what anybody says." And he went on: "Until my tape measure says he's six foot.” Sophie then shared details of her brother and boyfriend’s first meeting, when Pete told Ben he thought that he would be taller.
Sophie said: “You first time meeting him 'oh I thought you'd be taller' as you're looking up to him. You're looking up to him and then saying ‘I thought you were at least six foot’, when he is.”
Pete retorted: “He doesn't look six foot." And then he sniped: “Lies. Already built on lies. Oh dear.” Briefly pausing to take a sip from her mug Sophie joked back: “Just because he makes you look like one of The Borrowers.”
