Gogglebox star Ken Harwood has died at the age of 77 after a short illness, production company Studio Lambert has said.
The former postmaster, from County Durham, was part of the cast of the hit show alongside wife Anne for five series.
They were regulars on the programme from series 15 to 19, which broadcast on Channel 4 from 2020 to 2022.
Harwood, who was married to Anne for 55 years, died last week.
Born in 1948 in Consett, County Durham, he was a postmaster for 30 years.
He then went on to be a local councillor before retiring in 2013.
Studio Lambert, the company behind Gogglebox, said: “He will be dearly missed by his wife Anne, sons Simon and Ross, daughter-in-law, Elle, grandchildren Freya and Tristram, and all who knew him.”
There will be a tribute to Harwood at the end of the episode of Gogglebox airing on Channel 4 on Friday night.
