Gogglebox Izzi Warner and co-stars issue tribute to The Queen as show premiere in doubt

Gogglebox Izzi Warner has issued a heartfelt tribute to Queen Elizabeth II.

The reality TV star was set to return to the screen tonight for the season premiere of the popular show. However, there has been an amendment to the TV schedule since Buckingham Palace confirmed The Queen has passed away.

The nation is mourning after Her Majesty died at Balmoral yesterday aged 96. Channel 4 has announced a schedule shake up as an extended edition of the network's news programme will air from midday.

The Last Leg has also been pulled from the schedule with host Adam Hills announcing "it didn't feel right" in the wake of The Queen's death. Gogglebox is still set to air tonight, but Channel 4 have been contacted by the ECHO to confirm whether the show will still be broadcast tonight.

Our favourite faces from the popular programme have taken to Instagram to share heartfelt tributes to honour The Queen's legacy. Izzi said: "They don't make them like this anymore, rest in peace your majesty."

Jenny Newby and Lee Riley commented: "We are absolutely gutted of the passing of the greatest leader this country will ever see. You’ve guided this county through all of our lives. Rest in peace our Queen xx"

Daniel Lustig posted: "You may rest now our queen . You have always been an inspiration."

Abbie Lynn and Georgia Bell both shared snaps of Her Majesty alongside heartbroken emojis.

Fans have taken to Twitter to express hope the show will still air tonight.

Telly Talk said: "I really do hope they show #Gogglebox tonight. We need something to cheer us all up"

Rhianna posted: "I hope @C4Gogglebox do a special show for the Queen tonight."

Corinne tweeted : "I’m very sorry but I need #Gogglebox to be on tonight"
