Gogglebox star unrecognisable as she is pictured at job away from TV show

Gogglebox star Shirley has been snapped away from the show by her partner Dave, and fans were stunned by the television star's different look.

Shirley Griffiths and husband Dave star on the Channel 4 show from their home in Caerphilly, and viewers have a soft spot for the Welsh couple, as reported by Manchester Evening News.

The couple returned to fans televisions last month, alongside fan favourites Jenny and Lee and others, as the show kicks off the latest season of everyday people dishing out their opinions on the latest TV show, breaking news, and more.

However, the show doesn't disclose what the stars get up to elsewhere in their lives, from jobs to social events and family matters - that's where social media comes in.

Most of the Gogglebox team tend to give their own personal updates on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter - and Shirley is no exception to the rule.

Earlier this week, Dave took to his and his wife's joint Instagram page after he happened to see Shirley at work, as it has previously been reported that Dave is a cleaner in a factory and Shirley works in retail.

Dave's snap showed a grinning Shirley as a 'busy bee' in a charity shop window, during World Book Day in the UK. Shirley looked the part indeed, with yellow antenna, black and yellow legwarmers, and even a pair of wings!

Dave captioned the snap to their thousands of followers: "Busy bee #Gogglebox shirley #nationalbookmonth ime bizy bizy doing nothing."

Gogglebox fans were 'buzzing' about the new look, with one user saying: ""Well done Shirl looking awesome and enjoying book day. See you on the box Friday."

Another joked: "@maskedsingeruk audition? Love it Shirl @c4gogglebox."

A further comment read: "Only you could look fabulous in a bee costume!!"

While another shared: "Well done Shirley. Such a good sport."

Gogglebox continues tonight on Channel 4, at 9pm.
