There's nothing like hunkering down on a Friday night to watch Gogglebox. The hugely popular Channel 4 series, which shows armchair critics doing exactly that, airs weekly at 9pm.
When the series finishes filming, fans of the show are usually treated to a celebrity version of the programme, which sees a star-studded line-up welcome cameras into their living rooms as they react to and give their opinion on the television of the week.
Loose Women star Stacey Solomon and her fiance Joe Swash are in the current Celebrity Gogglebox line-up and have given a sneak peek at what filming the show at their pad, affectionately named Pickle Cottage, is like.

Giving a glimpse at her living room, Stacey, 32, revealed her windows had all been boarded up to make it seem as if they were filming the hit show at night. In footage filmed on Instagram, Stacey explained that the producers "have to black out all the windows so it looks like night-time".
Her video revealed that black coverings had been put up over her French doors and stuck down with white tape. Stacey's dad featured in the short clip as she explained he was on babysitting duties while she filmed for the show.
A caption on the video read: "Now we are filming Gogglebox, they black it all out because it's too bright outside. Grandad is on pickle watch but right now he's just eating our snacks."
It's a busy time for Stacey and Joe who are counting down to their wedding. The pair are due to get married at their house this month and have been updating followers on their plans. You can read more on this here. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
