Dave and Shirley Confirm Late-August Filming Return as Roisin and Joe Exit Gogglebox

An Instagram reply from the long-time stars sets late-August filming in motion following Channel 4’s decision not to invite Roisin Kelly and Joe Kyle back.

Overview

  • Dave and Shirley Griffiths told a fan on Instagram that filming for the next Gogglebox series is expected to begin at the end of August.
  • The Welsh couple have appeared on the Channel 4 show since 2015 and were last seen during May’s 26th series.
  • Roisin Kelly announced on TikTok in July that Channel 4 did not ask her and Joe Kyle to return after three and a half years on the programme.
  • Local media coverage has relied on direct social-media posts from cast members rather than formal Channel 4 statements.
  • The cast changes underscore Gogglebox’s balance of retaining veteran favourites while periodically refreshing its lineup.
