Gogglebox’s Dave and Shirley flooded with messages as they take break

Shirley Griffiths Channel 4 Caerphilly United Kingdom

Channel 4 stars Dave and Shirley Griffiths have been enjoying some time away as they take a break from Gogglebox. The popular programme, which sees a cast of armchair critics react to the latest television shows, has ended for another series.

Currently, the show's spin-off celebrity version is airing in the Friday night slot with a brand new line-up, including The Royle Family's Ricky Tomlinson and Sue Johnston, Davina McCall and Michael Douglas, and Tom Grennan with his dad Martin. You can see the Celebrity Gogglebox line-up in full here.

However, with some time off away from screens, Caerphilly-born stars Dave and Shirley have used the opportunity to trade the UK for the sunnier location of Salou in Spain. The married couple, who have been welcoming viewers into their Welsh abode since 2015, said "cheers" to their followers as they jetted off.
