Viewers of Channel 4's Gogglebox say their "heart stopped" during the most recent episode when two of its main stars appeared to vanish in the middle of it. Giles and Mary were seen watching a show during the episode on Friday (March 17) but then a camera panned to their empty chairs.
Emotional piano music played whilst the camera was on the empty chairs, leading some to wonder whether "something had happened" to Giles and Mary. But suddenly, the couple could be heard talking in the background whilst playing the piano.
They were doing so whilst watching Channel 4's music competition The Piano, which appeared to have inspired the couple to have a go themselves. But the revelation did little to calm down some online commentators, reports The Mirror.

Taking to Twitter, one viewer tweeted: "I saw those two empty chairs and my heart stopped… I thought something had happened to Nutty and Nutty. Phew."
Another concerned viewer agreed: "I thought Giles and Mary had passed a way for a second and there was going to be one of those voiceovers." A third fan wrote of the moment: "Bloody hell, I thought Giles and Mary had died," as a fourth added: "Jesus… Empty chairs… Thought Nutty & Bitty had died."
The comments kept on coming too, as another viewer noticed: "Giles and Mary have gone." Some viewers certainly saw the funny side though, with one fan tweeting: "I am creased at everyone thinking Giles and Mary had passed away because of their empty chairs."
