Gogglebox viewers were distracted as the Channel 4 show made a welcome return to our screens on Friday night

The seventeenth series kicked off with the arm critics watching It’s A Sin, Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway and Boris Johnson’s road map announcement.

The Malones were one of the families back to give their viewers on the latest shows on the TV.

The new decor wasn’t the only thing different about the Malone family this evening.

Tom and Julie’s son Tom Jr announced on Thursday night that he’s walked away from the show after six years.

He confirmed his departure with a lengthy statement on Instagram alongside a picture of him holding a sign that read “Back on the Market. Get At Me With Any TV Work”.

“I’ve loved every minute and I’m eternally grateful to @channel4 and @studiolambert for allowing me to be a part of the show. But new opportunities are knocking on the door and it’s time to explore them.

“I look forward to enjoying the show as a viewer and not having to worry about having said something stupid.”

Giving assurances to fans that the rest of the Malones weren’t going anywhere, Tom ended his post: “PS. Don’t worry my family @themalonesgb and @shaunmalone95 will still be on the show to keep you guys entertained every Friday.”
