Dave and Shirley Griffiths have been enjoying some downtime following the end of the latest Gogglebox series. The Caerphilly couple have been keeping their Instagram followers up to date as they take some time out off-screen.
The Channel 4 favourites, who joined the cast of armchair critics in 2015, have been on holiday in Salou, Spain and it seems their getaway sparked some rumours they could be leaving the programme. However, Dave and Shirley have firmly confirmed that is not the case.
In a stunning photograph the pair posted of Shirley in a black dress on the beach, one fan wrote: "Just heard you’ve moved abroad and won’t be doing gogglebox - GUTTED ! Miss you both - thank you for being normal and replying to fans like me! The other crew never respond! Love and best of luck peeps."

Responding, Dave and Shirley said: "Don't believe that love, we're just on holidays see you in September."
Another commented: "Glad you guys are not leaving us Shirl," as the couple replied: "Don't get rid of us that easy."
While a third said: "Oh my God I thought you had left for good, I was gutted. So glad it's just a holiday. Have a brilliant time and I will look forward to you back on the box. Love you two."
The pair have since shared another update as they head home after their holiday. Posting on Twitter they posted a selfie and wrote: "All good things come to an end, last night of hols."
Dave and Shirley are set to return to Channel 4 screens in September. However, those missing Gogglebox can currently tune into the celebrity spin-off which is airing in its place on Friday nights. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
