Strictly Come Dancing star Bobby Brazier is poised return to join Celebrity Gogglebox ahead of its new series.
The 20-year old heartthrob reached the Strictly final in December alongside his professional dance partner Dianne Buswell, only to miss out on lifting the Glitterball Trophy to pal Ellie Leach and Vito Coppola.
Bobby’s next move will see him combine his role on EastEnders with time on Channel 4 – joined by his dad, Jeff Brazier, and younger brother Freddie. The family will offer an hilarious look at what’s been on the box week by week.

Bobby and Jeff previously appeared on 4’s special Gogglebox edition for Stand Up 2 Cancer last autumn, and clearly impressed the broadcaster’s bosses.
A source told the Sun of Bobby’s addition to the show: “Producers are delighted that Freddie wants to join them. The trio have great banter and it will be great to treat Bobby’s huge fanbase to his rapport with Freddie.
“He has really propelled his family to stardom since coming runner-up on Strictly. Jeff adores working with his sons and the brothers are really close, so it could lead to more projects together.”

The source added that the Braziers’ scenes will “lift the lid on the boys’ home life”. It caps a fine week for Bobby, who was also cast in a new thriller series earlier this week.
He’ll star alongside three former Enders stars in the form of Lucy Benjamin (who played Lisa Mitchell), Larry Lamb (Archie Mitchell) and Anita Dobson (Angie Watts). Paramount Plus revealed on Instagram: “An announcement worth breaking curfew for: @bobbybrazier, @lucybenjaminofficial, @larrylambofficial, and Anita Dobson join the cast of brand new thriller series #Curfew, coming soon to Paramount+ UK & Ireland.”

A third wrote: “I can’t wait to wait this. I absolutely love Bobby.” And a fourth said: “Ahh amazing!! Can’t wait to watch this!!!”
