Gogglebox's Mary Killen tells husband Giles Wood off over swearing
Gogglebox star Mary Killen gave her husband Giles Wood a mouthful after she discovered that he had scrawled swear words over their calendar.
The couple - who have been together for more than 50 years - are both armchair critics on Channel 4's hit TV commentary series. But in the latest episode of the show, Mary was distracted from the small screen offerings as she realised what Giles had been up to.
Letting rip, she told him that if they were work colleagues she would "consider this workplace harassment".
The episode of the programme which aired on Friday, 30 May was the last in the current series, and included highlights from across the season.
In one scene, the couple were perched beside each other in their chairs when Mary spotted some writing on their calendar.
"Giles, if you are I were colleagues in the workplace I would consider this workplace harassment," she told him. "Why? What have I done now?" he asked. "You have written swear words all over our communal calendar!" Mary exclaimed.
"So what did I write Mary?" he asked, as his wife passed him the calendar to take a look at his handiwork. "You know quite well what you wrote," she replied, looking unimpressed.
"OK, shall I read it out?" he asked. "No don't please!" snapped Mary.
However, Giles ploughed on, reading "s**** weather, s**** government, s**** country, no point living here, s**** prime minister, s**** chancellor, relocate to Tenerife" as Mary shouted at him to stop.

"You are not allowed to swear in this sanctuary of a room!" she insisted.
Mary has previously shared that she has a "zero tolerance policy" when it comes to turning the air blue. She told The Guardian in 2018: "There's so much on telly, I don't want it in my own cottage. Giles swears occasionally because he's always having minor accidents. Our children turn on him and tell him off."
Mary and Giles, who met in the 70s when Giles was studying at art school and Mary was a model, joined Gogglebox in 2015.
Their first series was series five, and they have just wrapped shooting on season 25.
The couple, who live in a thatched cottage in Wiltshire, have two daughters together, but they remain off-screen.
