Channel 4's popular Gogglebox couple, Dave and Shirley, caused a storm on Instagram this week after finding what some followers have called a 'beast'. The pair took to social media after finding the unusual looking visitor.
Posting a snap of the creature, the Welsh duo wrote: "Found this out the back, any ideas"? It didn't take long of the followers to offer their advice, opinion and a few quips along the way.
One person wrote in response to the post: "Jesus Christ are you trying to give me a heart attack? Made me ****** jump seeing that!! He’s a beast!! I’d have to move immediately". And this response was the tip of the iceberg. Posted just a day ago the picture has already received over 2,000 likes and over 500 comments.
