Channel 4 Gogglebox star Jenny shares thanks to Lee in a touching announcement

Gogglebox star Jenny has shared a touching announcement where she thanked her on screen partner Lee. The Channel 4 show is set to return next month for a brand new series.

Fan favourite Jenny has shared a thank you message to Lee Riley ahead of filming. It comes after she spent time in hospital with an illness earlier this year.

Birmingham Live reports Jenny is now out of hospital and back home recovering. She has since filmed herself holding the BAFTA the pair won.

She said: "Hiya Lee, it's only me. I've got my BAFTA! "I know I couldn't be there with you on the night – I swapped my evening gown for my theatre gown, and my black stockings for surgical stockings, and my silver clutch bag for a catheter bag. But all in all, I never got to say thank you to you, you know, for the support you gave me through the pandemic when we was filming.

"You know, and the things that you did for me like giving me that 9ft by 5ft bedroom – wall to wall... walls, and enough room under the bed for my Pot Noodle and a packet of fags," she said. "And the one shelf you gave me in the kitchen, and I needed to stand on a step to get to it!"

She signed off with: "But I just want to say all in all Lee, thank you very much for being my bezzie mate, and I'm hoping to see you soon. Bye bye." Lee replied: "This is why I love this woman. Thank you for your kind words Jenny [crying laughing emojis]. See you next week."

The new series will get underway on Friday, September 9 at 9pm on Channel 4.
