Giles Wood and Mary Killen are fairly private when it comes to their lives away from their living room TV. The Gogglebox stars, who joined the Channel 4 show in 2015, have shared the odd throwback snap but other details have been kept under wraps.
So fans may be pleased to discover some little-known information about Giles' roots in North Staffordshire and the artwork from which he has made a living. Giles is a skilled painter who enjoys creating pictures which depict “the clutter of peoples’ lives”.
His family is related to master potter Samuel Wood and his father ran S A Wood & Sons, manufacturing fireplaces in Hanley.
