Channel 4's Gogglebox is 'under threat' following a pay row between the show's stars and producers, a newspaper report has claimed.
The couch potato critics are said to be upset that their £15-a-night wage will not increase despite the programme's critical and ratings success.
Having pulled in 2.7 million viewers a week in a Friday night primetime slot and bagging a TV BAFTA this month, it is believed some cast members are keen to to earn a few more quid.
Geordie Goggleboxer Scarlett Moffat, 23, is quoted as saying the families only "get their leccy bill and takeaways" covered.
But another, anonymous, cast member is reported to have claimed that the payoff is the least they have ever earned.
It was also claimed that the Gogglebox cast are contractually prevented from appearing in other TV shows.
