Gogglebox favourite Jenny Newbury delighted viewers on Friday as she revealed that she’s given up smoking.
The Channel 4 star was sat with her best pal Lee Riley in their caravan as she shared her exciting news.
She had received a certificate after successfully ditching the cigarettes.
Jenny told Lee that she no longer coughs and feels a lot better after kicking the habit.
The armchair critic joked: “Quitting smoking saves me money on cigs and money on Tena Lady.”
Viewers rushed to their keyboards to congratulate Jenny on her announcement.
Taking to Twitter, one fan penned:”So proud of @leegogglebox for quitting smoking! She reminds me so much of my mum who also quit after smoking for 40 years! Amazing funny ladies.”
Another added: “Congrats Jenny for stop smoking!”
A third person posted: “Well done Jenny for quitting smoking.”
Jenny and Lee have starred on the show since 2014, and have become popular amongst viewers.
They became friends 21 years ago when Jenny was a landlady at a pub in Paull, East Yorkshire, and Lee was a regular.
Lee and Jenny left sent Gogglebox fans into tears last week as they discussed d**k picks during a hilarious TV moment.
Jenny was trying to find the Wifi connection and she managed to get onto the ‘on park Wifi’.
Lee joked: “Oh I wouldn’t go on there you know…”
He added: “It’s unlocked, anybody can get onto your phone you know.”
Jenny was baffled as Lee teased: “People can get onto your phone and have a look at your d**k pics and all sorts.”
At first, Jenny didn’t respond to the remark but then said: “I ain’t got d**k pics on my phone!”
Jenny’s husband Ray made a surprise appearance on the programme last week.
She called her other half on the phone to ask him to pick up her prescription.
Ray tends to keep out of the limelight and wasn’t keen on taking part in the show.
