Gogglebox star looks completely unrecognisable in rare snap as she reunites with her famous sister - almost a decade after appearing together on the Channel 4 show

Daily Mail​11-06-2025
Former Gogglebox star Ava-Grace Moffatt looked unrecognisable as she reunited with famous sister Scarlett on Thursday.
The reality star, 18, who rose to fame as a youngster and is now in University, cut a trendy figure in the rare snap with her sibling, 34, almost a decade after they appeared together on the Channel 4 show.
Ava cut a trendy figure in a Guns N' Roses T-shirt which she teamed with a hoodie and headscarf while posing with Scartlett at a train station.
The former I'm A Celeb star beamed while shelling her eyes behind huge shades and captioned the snap: 'Sister Day'.
The Moffatt family joined Gogglebox in 2014 during the third series, with Scarlett quickly becoming a fan favourite for her outspoken personality.

Initially appearing with just her parents, Mark and Betty, Scarlett was later joined by Ava from series seven, before they all exited in 2016.
Following the family's stint on Gogglebox Ava and the family joined Scarlett in Australia when she hosted the I'm A Celeb spin-off after winning the main show in 2016.
In 2019 the family also appeared in The Tribe Next Door Channel Four documentary that saw them live alongside the Himba community in a Namibian tribal village, in an exact replica of their parents Newcastle home.
But the experiment hit the headlines and branded 'twisted' and 'harmful' by activist charity, while angry fans said the show 'screams privilege'.
It comes just days after it was revealed Scarlett was reportledy in talks to join the All Stars version of I'm A Celebrity: Get Me Out Of Here!
She was crowned Queen of the Jungle back in 2016, so her appearance on All Stars would mark her tenth anniversary of winning the show.
Filming is set to start in South Africa later this year with a source telling The Sun: 'Scarlett won I'm A Celeb in 2016 and was hugely popular with viewers, so everyone's really excited she might be returning for the new All Stars series.
'She is so game for a laugh and knows what to expect in terms of the Bushtucker Trials, so she'll throw herself into every task.
'Scarlett is a mum now and she wants to do it to show her little boy how brave she can be.'
MailOnline have contacted Scarlett's representatives and ITV for comment.
It was revealed in February that Ant and Dec would be returning to host another All Stars series.
A source close to the production revealed: 'It did well last time and while they can't do it annually, they wanted to do another.'
The first series featured a star-studded lineup of former contestants, including boxing champion Amir Khan, Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan, TV presenter Carol Vorderman and Olympic athlete Fatima Whitbread.
Series six runner-up Myleene Klass was crowned the winner after defeating series 16 campmate Jordan Banjo in the final survival trial.
A spin-off of the original I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, the special is filmed in Kruger National Park, South Africa, where celebrities take on various challenges in a basic, luxury-free camp.
Unlike the original format, however, the all-star series does not allow viewers to vote for contestants to face Bushtucker Trials.
Instead, the campmates battle it out for the title of 'Legend,' departing from the traditional crowning of a Jungle King or Queen.
The I'm A Celebrity… South Africa special garnered strong viewership, with an average of 5.5 million viewers tuning in per episode.

Saturday's Lotto jackpot estimated at £7.3m after no ticket wins top prize

Saturday's lottery jackpot will be an estimated £7.3 million after no players won Wednesday's top prize. The winning Lotto numbers were 17, 31, 47, 05, 58 and 09, while the bonus number was 35. No players matched all six main numbers, meaning the jackpot was missed, while no ticket-holders won £1 million by matching five of the six numbers plus the bonus ball. Set of balls 3 and draw machine Lotto2 were used in the first Lotto draw since the National Lottery paused over the weekend to enable the biggest technology upgrade in the game's 31-year history. In Lotto HotPicks, which uses the same numbers as the Lotto draw, no players matched all five numbers to win the £350,000 top prize. Two ticket-holders won £13,000 each after matching four of the five numbers. The winning Thunderball numbers were 19, 02, 27, 03 and 38, and the Thunderball was 11. No ticket-holders won £500,000 by matching all five numbers plus the Thunderball. One player matched all five regular numbers, which earned them £5,000.

For the BBC to survive it must radically change its culture… from top to bottom

Beeb's mess WHAT a sorry mess the BBC has now got itself into. Nothing sums up its self-inflicted plight more than deciding to last night broadcast MasterChef featuring Gregg Wallace and John Torode. 1 After some frantic editing, they stripped the show of all 'jokes' — but still managed to put two stars who were sacked in disgrace just two weeks ago on screen 100 times. Little wonder Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy refused to watch. Meanwhile, as we report today, the probe into allegations of a toxic culture at BBC Breakfast is set to be widened. And the furore over the Corporation's broadcasting of an antisemitic rant by the rapper Bob Vylan continues. It's deeply disturbing that Beeb bosses have been unable to convince Ms Nandy the scandal could not be repeated. From Strictly to Huw Edwards, Auntie lurches from one fiasco to another — with angry viewers fobbed off with that tired old excuse about 'lessons being learned'. This matters because licence-fee payers are forced by law to fund the Corporation — and so have little option but to suck up the mayhem and mismanagement. For the BBC to survive, it must radically change its culture….from top to bottom. Sinking plans LABOUR has unveiled a raft of policies this week aimed at stopping the boats. Each shallow gimmick has already quickly unravelled. John Torode sacked by BBC after being accused of using N-word while singing along to Kanye West song Gold Digger How can ministers catch the people-smugglers 'illegally' advertising crossings on social media given they mostly operate from abroad? How will prosecutors identify those committing a 'criminal offence' by causing overcrowding on the dinghies? Is it the first person on the boat . . . or should it be the last? Labour's one-in-one-out deal with France also looks doomed already as migrants can use human rights laws to fight deportation — while the French have power of veto over any swap. Certainly, the migrants — who arrived by the boatload again yesterday — aren't taking any notice. Kinnock knock DESPERATE patients trapped on endless NHS lists are increasingly turning to private healthcare to get treatment. Many are not rich but use hard-earned savings to do so. Former Labour leader Neil Kinnock — on a massive EU pension and no stranger to paying privately himself — now says they should cough up VAT, too.

Gregg Wallace accusers slam BBC for ‘disregarding victims' after Masterchef airs with sacked hosts despite botched edit

BBC bosses were last night feeling the heat over a string of scandals. The Corporation took a battering for airing a new series of MasterChef featuring sacked stars John Torode and Gregg Wallace. 13 13 Bosses struggled to cut down the shamed pair's screen time in the series opener though they did succeed in stripping the popular cookery contest of its usual jokes. It came as the corporation faced renewed demands to shelve the series after a misconduct probe led to the departures of its long-running hosts last month. Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy revealed yesterday she would not be watching. During the 58-minute opener which aired last night on BBC One, Wallace and Torode were featured more than 100 times. The presenters, both 60, were seen on seven occasions during the first minute alone. The nature of the show meant they then kept popping up repeatedly throughout — although there was a noticeable lack of banter between them and the contestants. A TV insider said: 'This was incredibly embarrassing for the Beeb who were probably hoping that there was something which could be done in the edit to drastically minimise how much they seemed to be on camera. MasterChef returns with Gregg Wallace and John Torode - but fans spot HUGE changes to show 'But the format of the show pivots so much around the presenters, who have to judge the meals, interview the guests and outline their suggested dishes and ingredients. 'There was simply no other way they could have made the show function without them being seen so much. 'But viewers did notice that there was far less joking around between Gregg and John and the contestants, as fans of the show have seen in the past.' The BBC's own website reported: 'MasterChef returns with sacked hosts but without their jokes.' On July 10, Wallace was sacked by the BBC and the show's production company Banijay after an investigation upheld 45 of 83 complaints against him. 13 13 13 13 Most of them, covering a 19-year period, centred around inappropriate sexual language and one of unwanted touching. Shortly afterwards, his Australian co-host Torode was also sacked after it emerged an allegation he used 'an extremely offensive racist term ' in the workplace was upheld. The BBC was then urged not to broadcast the new series, which had already been recorded, given that both men featured so heavily. 'Bigger than individuals' At one point it was suggested it might just be put on iPlayer, and not go out on BBC One. However BBC Director-General Tim Davie insisted MasterChef was 'bigger than individuals' before it was confirmed it would go ahead as planned. Mr Davie said his 'overwhelming concern' was for the amateur chefs who 'gave their heart and soul to this programme'. Yesterday morning the first three episodes, featuring a first batch of six amateur chefs, were available on the iPlayer. 13 13 13 Notably, the accompanying images were all of food and the MasterChef logo, in stark contrast to previous series which featured multiple shots of Torode and Wallace goofing around in the kitchen. The first episode then aired at 8pm on BBC One. It remained to be seen if viewing figures are drastically different to last year's series opener which pulled in 3.2million. Ms Nandy would not be among them. The minister said: 'It's absolutely not for me, as the Culture Secretary and a member of the government, to tell broadcasters what they can and can't broadcast.' I've watched MasterChef on and off over the years, but I certainly won't be watching this series Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy But, asked what she thought as a viewer, she said: 'I won't be watching it.' She added: 'I've watched MasterChef on and off over the years, but I certainly won't be watching this series.' Some of the women who made allegations against Wallace told BBC News they did not think it should be aired. One said it showed 'a blatant disregard for the people who have come forward'. Former Newsnight presenter Kirsty Wark, who alleged Wallace told 'sexualised' jokes while filming Celebrity MasterChef in 2011, said she knew many women had asked the BBC not to broadcast the new series. She told the BBC's Scotcast podcast that she 'probably won't be watching'. 'Enabling environment' Broadcast union Bectu said bad behaviour 'should not be rewarded with prime-time coverage'. Last week, Sarah Shafi, one of the contestants on the new series, said she was edited out after asking for it not to be aired. Ms Shafi said it should have been axed out of respect to those whose complaints were upheld. That would have sent 'a strong message the BBC are not supporting people in those prominent positions or facilitating some sort of enabling environment', she added. Replacements for Wallace and Torode have yet to be confirmed by the BBC. 13 13
