Gogglebox favourite Lee Riley has shared an update on his co-star Jenny Newby following her stint in hospital.
The Channel 4 series is due to return to television screens next month and the pals from Hull are gearing to invite viewers back into their iconic caravan for season 20.
During the coronavirus pandemic, Lee invited Jenny to stay with him and they ended up spending six months together in the same caravan.

She said: “”Hiya Lee, it’s only me. I’ve got my BAFTA!
“I know I couldn’t be there with you on the night I swapped my evening gown for my theatre gown, and my black stockings for surgical stockings, and my silver clutch bag for a catheter bag.
“But all in all, I never got to say thank you to you, you know, for the support you gave me through the pandemic when we was filming.

“You know, and the things that you did for me like giving me that 9ft by 5ft bedroom – wall to wall… walls, and enough room under the bed for my Pot Noodle and a packet of fags.
“And the one shelf you gave me in the kitchen, and I needed to stand on a step to get to it!
“But I just want to say all in all Lee, thank you very much for being my bezzie mate, and I’m hoping to see you soon. Bye bye.”
