More details have emerged about S4C's new Welsh language Gogglebox series. The new programme, which is aptly called Gogglebocs Cymru, will be hosted by Welsh comedian Tudur Owen. Of his new role, he said: "I'm an avid TV watcher and have enjoyed Gogglebox for years but I rarely watch live television. Everyone's viewing habits have changed now haven't they. Every time I turn on the TV, I'm amazed at the choice. Sometimes, I'll end up just making a cuppa because I don't know where to start."
Tudur added: "I'll often use Gogglebox as an indicator of what to watch. I've watched a lot of good series because of it - and I hope that putting this spotlight on Welsh programmes will help them too."
Now on its 20th series, the main Channel 4 Gogglebox series continues to go from strength to strength and S4C's new addition gives a golden opportunity to watch a brand new version with a Welsh twist and all-Welsh cast. The majority of Gogglebocs Cymru's offering will be produced in Wales. A few productions from further afield will also appear so that the cast's discussions and reactions can reflect what is happening in homes around the world. But when will the new series begin?
