Channel 4 Gogglebox fans stunned by 'different person' and Stephen's impressive weight loss

Gogglebox fans were left stunned during the latest episode as couple Daniel Lustig and Stephen Webb showed off their new appearances. Viewers of the hit Channel 4 show eagerly tuned in on Friday night to see their favourite families commenting on another week of breaking news, TV and popular streaming series.

But they were left doing a double take when they noticed Daniel's striking transformation - and were even left wondering who he was. The hairdresser, from Brighton, chopped off his curly locks last week but his new look wasn't debuted until last night's show (March 25).

He took drastic measures and ditched his trademarks curls for a new cropped look that matches his husband. Sharing his new look on Instagram last week, Daniel said: "Only gone and chopped all my hair off! Little refresh . #frenchcrop #menshaircut."

And fans were soon agreeing that it made him look totally different - and younger. Then, on Friday night, his new look got its television debut and Gogglebox viewers were just as floored.
