Gogglebox fans all have the same complaint after major schedule shake-up

GOGGLEBOX fans were left with a major complaint after the show was cancelled on Friday in a massive schedule shake up.

The Channel 4 show was aired on Saturday night after the hit show was replaced in its usual 9pm slot by Friday Night Live.

As fans tuned into their favourite show, many viewers felt uncomfortable by the schedule changes and admitted they missed the show being aired on a Friday night.

One wrote: “Gogglebox on a Saturday feels weird. #Gogglebox”

Another posted: “#Gogglebox on a Saturday night really isn’t right! It’s confusing me too!”

A third echoed: “Totally forgot about #Gogglebox being on tonight because Channel 4 put some god awful s*** on last night.”

“Ridiculous decision to put Gogglebox on a Saturday night, what the f*** was Channel 4 thinking?,” someone else fumed.

But not all fans agreed and said the schedule shake-up was a welcome change.

One fan posted: “Prefer Gogglebox on a Saturday. #Gogglebox”

Another posted: “I usually hate Saturday night television. Saturday night Gogglebox is fabulous.”

An announcer explained shortly before airing Send Nudes: Body SOS on Wednesday night: “It’s one for you diary. Brand new Gogglebox isn’t on its usual Friday night spot.

“Saturday at 9pm is your go-to for this week over on Channel 4.”

One furious fan said: “They didn’t just announce that #Gogglebox will be on Saturday nights instead of Friday nights from next week, did they?? I ruddy-well hope not.

@Channel4 We NEED our light-hearted Gogglebox by the end of the week on a Friday night! It’s what Friday nights were made for.”

Another added: “You can’t move #Gogglebox to a Saturday night to make way for Ben Elton….?”

Someone else worried: “Apparently Gogglebox has been moved from Friday to Saturday night.”

Gogglebox made way for a one-off revival of the stand-up and entertainment show Friday Night Live.

Fronted by Ben Elton the show returned as part of Channel 4’s 40th anniversary celebrations.

The host was joined by co-horts from the original series such as Harry Enfield, Julian Clary and Jo Brand, and contemporary performers Rosie Jones, Mawaan Rizwan, Jordan Gray, Ronni Ancona and Sam Campbell, who provide a mixture of topical sketches and stand-up.

Plus, there was live music by Mercury Prize nominee Self Esteem.
