Rylan's mum begged Celebrity Gogglebox editors to cut out remarks
Rylan Clark and his mum Linda have pleaded with the Celebrity Gogglebox editors to steer clear of airing certain discussions, worrying they might be "career-ending".
The popular pair made their comeback on Channel 4's beloved series last week, and they're in good company with celebrities like Vernon Kay and Paddy McGuinness sharing the sofa.
Previously speaking about their on-screen partnership, Rylan, 36, joked that the editors "must like" them, due to what viewers get to see of the pair on television, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Rylan eagerly agreed: "We're lucky that the editors clearly like us, because the stuff they've had to cut out is career-ending."
Linda chimed in with a further caution: "[I say] 'Don't you dare say what I just said'."
A chuckling Rylan remarked on their editorial requests: "We're like, 'Yeah, can we not use that, please'".
They've swiftly become one of the audience's top duos since joining Gogglebox in 2019, celebrated for their charming and witty rapport.
Rylan shared how the show was an ideal chance for his mum to work with him; as she had declined other offers due to her Crohn's disease, which limits her outings.
Chatting to Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary, Rylan explained: "Mum has got Crohn's [disease] as well, she doesn't really go out that much and things like that."
He added: "But, when Gogglebox came along and they asked me to do it, I said, 'I would love to do it with my mum'."
During their joint interview, he turned to his mum and said: "Because, you know, I think you came down to X Factor once didn't you, just one time.
"So when this was the case, she lives five minutes from me, so I was like, 'Mum look it's at my house, you'll feel comfortable'."
Linda added: "You feel like you're not on the telly, you just sit there."
Rylan previously disclosed that out of "hundreds" of work opportunities that have come their way, a travel show was also on the cards.
"It would be hilarious, but she's just not well enough to do it," he confessed to Daily Star.
"Gogglebox is enough for us. She feels comfortable doing that show because we're just sat in my kitchen."
According to the NHS, Crohn's disease is a chronic condition where part of the digestive system becomes inflamed.
There's presently no cure, but treatments exist that can help prevent or manage the symptoms effectively.
Although a travel show might be off the cards for Linda, audiences can still catch her appearances on Rylan's weekly BBC Radio 2 show and his YouTube series, Air Rylan.

Gwawr Lloyd, acting head of drama at Channel 4, said: 'We're thrilled to be bringing Number 10 to Channel 4, a bold, brilliant and witty new drama from the exceptional mind of Steven Moffat and the powerhouse team at Hartswood Films. 'Number 10 will offer a rare glimpse behind the doors of the world's most iconic political residences, which will take viewers from the high-stakes decisions of leadership to the lives of the staff who keep the house running. 'An insightful and entertaining twist on a state of the nation drama.'

The programme will be produced by Hartswood Films, part of ITV Studios, and directed by Ben Palmer. Sue Vertue, executive producer for Hartswood Films, added: 'We are excited to be working with Channel 4 on Number 10, which is a passion project for Steven.

An air date for the programme will be announced at a later date.
