Glasgow Gogglebox couple spark Ofcom row after King Charles' Coronation comments

A Glasgow couple who make a weekly appearance on Gogglebox have been hit with complaints following comments over the Royal Family.

Roisin Kelly, 23, and Joe Kyle, 25, sparked backlash from fans after comments about King Charles' Coronation while they were on the show with some viewers complaining to Ofcom, reports the Daily Record.

The Glaswegian couple, who have been together for five years, joined the Channel 4 reality show last year and are now among fan favourites.

However not everyone was happy with the pair sparking backlash after Joe turned to Rosin and said: " Do you want to hear my pledge? You can stick your Coronation up your a***, you can stick your Coronation up your a***."

Watching the clips and reacting to the scenes, other couples and families on the show seemed to be excited to watch it with Stephen and Daniel even wearing special slippers to mark the occasion.

At the time many fans were outraged and flocked to Twitter to rant, as 88 viewers issued a formal complaint to Ofcom.

One wrote: "I loved every minute of it. Shame on the Glaswegian couple. Let us Glaswegians down with that vile remark."

Another said: "Complaint put in about the Scottish couple."

A third added: "Watching Gogglebox and nearly broke the TV when Roisin and Joe came on!! Get them off!!"

Gogglebox continues Fridays on Channel 4 from 9pm.
