Celebrity Gogglebox producers forced to cut 'career-ending' conversations from show as stars warn editors 'don't you dare include that'
Presenter Rylan Clark has revealed that editors of Celebrity Gogglebox had to cut some 'career-ending' conversations from his appearances on the show with his mum, Linda.
The star, aged 36, first rose to fame during his 2012 participation on The X Factor and has since risen to hosting supremacy as a host across a broad spectrum of British TV, including Big Brother's Bit on the Side, Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two, This Morning and more recently, Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour – with Robert Rinder.
However fans of Celebrity Gogglebox have enjoyed seeing a more unfiltered side of Rylan, including plenty of wise cracks at his mum's expense.
The pair quickly became a fan favourite due to their zingy banter and no-holds-barred commentary.
However, appearing on This Morning on Friday, the pair admitted there are plenty of sofa conversations that don't make it to air.
Conversations between them can push the boundaries, and he and Linda often have to implore editors to make cuts.

'When he mucks about,' Linda explained: ' I go: 'Please don't put that bit in!''
'We're lucky the editors clearly like us,' Rylan added: 'Because the stuff they've had to cut out is career-ending… We're like, 'yeah can we not use that, please!''
Rylan, 36, and Linda, 72 initially appeared on the celebrity edition of the Channel 4 hit back in 2019. Since then, many fans have called for them to have their own spin off show.
This series of Celebrity Gogglebox has seen the mother/son pair accompanied alongside a star-studded line up, featuring Dani and Danny Dyer, Martin and Roman Kemp, James and Clair Buckley, and Shaun Ryder and Bez.
Viewers have been celebrating Rylan and Linda's comeback to Celebrity Gogglebox, sharing their delight on social media:
One particularly popular moment between the pair included commentary on the Queen's platinum jubilee, in which Rylan had to explain to his mother that Paddington was not a real bear.
'He's not there, is he?' Linda asked, referring to whether Paddington was actually in Buckingham Palace with the queen, as shown in the iconic clip, 'That is the real Queen!'
'Yes, but Paddington is not a real bear,' Rylan shot back, before he is questioned about whether Paddington is a puppet, and abandons the conversation, in exasperation.
However, there were those who had complaints about this year's lineup of celebs.
One posted: 'Celebrity Gogglebox just isn't funny like the original, it feels forced! #gogglebox #Celebritygogglebox.'
Another said: 'We watch normal #Gogglebox because its hilarious and we love all the families. #celebritygogglebox is not funny and we couldn't care less about the celebs. Its just people watching telly.'
Someone else penned: 'Not the dreaded celebrities again, so many of them are so annoying #Celebritygogglebox.'

Your eyesight might be worse than you think if you can't complete this Elon Musk brainteaser in 15 seconds or less
HE'S been hitting the headlines for the past few weeks. But do you know what Elon Musk looks like enough to be able to spot the odd one out in this brainteaser? 2 The new puzzle challenges players to look through the pictures of Elon to see if they can find 'Elon Mustache' - the only drawing of the Tesla boss with facial hair. You'll be even more impressed with yourself if you can find Elon Mustache in the 144 images in just 15 seconds. And if you can't, your eyesight might not be as good as you think. "With Elon Musk dominating headlines, this brainteaser offers players a topical test of their eyesight, to find the odd Elon out of nearly 150 regular cartoon images of him," a spokesperson for Direct Sight, who provided the brainteaser, said. 'This 'odd one out' game is a perfect blend of mental stimulation and a nod to testing our eyesight that so many of us are committed to. "It's a quick, engaging way to take a break, test your observational and visual skills and have fun along the way." If you're struggling to find the odd one out, try narrowing it down into quarters. And take a look at one before the other. If you still can't find the mustachioed man, you can rule out the left half of the picture. Then, you can cross out the top section of the right half - it's somewhere in the bottom. Can you find the hidden bee amongst the flowers in this tricky brainteaser- The answer to the puzzle is circled at the bottom of the page if you're still finding it tough.
