George has been axed from Gogglebox!!!!
 
Axed from Gogglebox along with his family due to his appearance on CBB! Can't believe it, they were quite good, why can't some of the others like that guy who never speaks, bit unfair considering he has done nothing wrong and if anything he is promoting Gogglebox, stupid channel 4!!!

FlippingEck 22-08-2014 10:08 PM

That's crap. What a load of **** C4.

Denver 22-08-2014 10:08 PM

Josy 22-08-2014 10:09 PM

Samm 22-08-2014 10:09 PM

Denver 22-08-2014 10:09 PM

I agree with this, the programme is about normal people watching tv and now George is appearing on tv it just doesn't seem natural or fit in with the concept anymore.

Marsh. 22-08-2014 10:09 PM

I thought it would've been because they don't want to have people on the show who are a getting a bit too "showbiz" and airtime and they want to keep it to otherwise unknown "normal" people.

But simply because the show's on channel 5? Pathetic.

What is Gogglebox? Is it like a reality version of The Royle Family?

Northern Monkey 22-08-2014 10:11 PM

Bet its just sour grapes from C4

LukeB 22-08-2014 10:11 PM

booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Cal. 22-08-2014 10:11 PM

Probably because he comes from C4 to C5

Will. 22-08-2014 10:11 PM

Hope the signer takes it all got a crap rating up against BB

No need to axe his family

Denver 22-08-2014 10:13 PM

Please big brother do not dare ask sandy and sandra and steph and dom otherwise there will be trouble :nono:

FlippingEck 22-08-2014 10:13 PM

I suppose I see their point, and the piece does say that they were informed if he took the place it would happen... so really they made the choice... gutted but never mind. Steph and Dom still there thankfully!

Braden 22-08-2014 10:13 PM

It's a bit unfair tbh.

The posh couple have been on many shows so does that not make them 'normal' people.

100%! It's because it's big brother, had he done any other show it would not have happened.

Heaven = Winner 22-08-2014 10:35 PM

ugh ffs :l

Heaven = Winner 22-08-2014 10:35 PM

Then again it could be fabricated bs, so... :shrug:

JoshBB 22-08-2014 10:35 PM

Noooo :bawling:

LaLaLand 22-08-2014 10:39 PM

Oh ****. I liked his family. Wouldn't mind if they just kept his parents and axed him tbh.

Brother Leon 22-08-2014 10:39 PM

C4 is salty that C5 BB is destroying their shows all the time. No surprise.

alex_front2 22-08-2014 10:55 PM

George has done right thing, GB won't last so he's taken reported c. £100k and run.

MB. 22-08-2014 10:57 PM

I don't think putting the words 'axed from Gogglebox' in the title would have taken up too much space :wink:

If thats true ill struggle to watch it with the 2 of the 3 best families gone

[2] tbh.

But yeah, can't say that I'm surprised really.

BigBrotherfan4ever 22-08-2014 11:15 PM

I'm gutted about this , I really like George & his family on Gogglebox

ruiphillips 23-08-2014 08:34 AM

No, I loved his mother :(

Pete. 23-08-2014 08:38 AM

:laugh: I see where Channel 4 are coming from as he's no longer a normal person but taking the 'fame' the show has given him to make a lot of money of it.

(Plus they were boring anyway)

Robodog 23-08-2014 09:46 AM

If it's true and they have axed him for making the transition from 'normal/civilian' to 'famous person' then - surely isn't that what CH4/Gogglebox has done anyway - not just George but every single person who appears on Gogglebox is now 'famous' for being on Gogglebox!

They should have put this guy in;

warrenhill 23-08-2014 09:50 AM

I think you will find that all the "reality stars" who have gone in had either left or were not returning which i believe they were told this by the tv companies before they chose to go in.

MrMinaj 23-08-2014 01:18 PM

This may well just be BS though.
I would take it with a pinch of salt for the time being.

LukeB 23-08-2014 01:23 PM

why cant the parents just stay on the show?
