Gogglebox stars Giles and Mary ready to 'uproot' and move away from Westcountry

Gogglebox fans may be missing Giles Wood and Mary Killen's iconic matching wallpaper and sofa in future episodes, as the pair have discussed moving away from the Westcountry. The eccentric couple have become fan favourites on the Channel 4 show since they first appeared on it back in 2015, beamed into our living room from their Wiltshire "Grottage".

But things could change as in their latest book, 'Country Life: A Story of Peaks and Troughs', Giles and Mary may give their thoughts on the week's television against a different backdrop after suggesting they may relocate to London. The armchair critics moved from Chelsea to Wiltshire 30 years ago as they could get more bang for their buck in the Westcountry at the time.

"Were I a shrub, I would say I have only tentatively put down roots here in Wiltshire," Giles writes in the book, which was released last month. "They are not yet thick or stubborn enough to prevent me from uprooting myself for the final chapter of my life."
