Yahoo News Celebrity Gogglebox: 2020 start date and this year's line-up revealed
Harry Redknapp, Laura Whitmore and Iain Stirling are among the stars who have been added to the Celebrity Gogglebox line-up.
With the current series of Gogglebox having just come to an end, some of Britain’s best loved celebrities will now turn their hand to being the country’s most opinionated viewers.
The show is continuing amid lockdown and social-distancing guidelines, meaning viewers will still get to find out what their favourite celebs really think of what's on TV.
Here's everything you need to know about the series...
When does Celebrity Gogglebox start?
The new series of Celebrity Gogglebox starts on Friday June 5 at 9pm.
Luckily, due to the fact that contributors film in their household groups, lockdown isn’t expected to make a noticeable difference to the way in which Celebrity Gogglebox will be filmed.
What channel is it on and how many episodes are there?
Celebrity Gogglebox will be returning to Channel 4 and there will be seven episodes, giving is a chance to peek inside the living rooms of the rich and famous.
