the book
Channel 4’s show Gogglebox has become a true TV phenomenon. It has struck a chord across the nation. Millions of people are now addicted to watching the much-loved cast’s surprising and hilarious commentary on the week in television – and the entertaining and heart-warming insight into their lives and relationships. Gogglebox is not just about TV. It’s about what it means to be British – particularities, eccentricities, and all.
Whether it’s Leon and June you love, or Stephen and Chris you root for, or the Woerdenwebers or Sandy and Sandra who make you laugh the most, we all have a favourite ‘unit’. You can now read about their views on everything from David Beckham’s balls to David Cameron’s mouth, from the toilet habits of sloths to the sex life of the walrus, and from the best TV snacks to the most potent cocktails. The World According to Gogglebox tells you everything you’ve wondered about the characters and more.
Gogglebox is unfailingly funny . . . It can also be romantic, moving, even profound
