Celebrity Gogglebox fans 'buzzing' as Inbetweeners legend joins new season
The Inbetweeners star James Buckley has delighted fans after confirming he and his wife Clair will appear on Celebrity Gogglebox. The 37-year-old actor, best known for portraying Jay Cartwright in the hit 00s sitcom, took to social media to share the exciting news. 'Hi guys, how's it going? We are joining the Gogglebox family. We're going to be watching some great TV and some not so great TV. And you'll be able to join us on Friday on Channel 4 at 9pm,' he said. James and Clair have already won fans over with their joint YouTube/podcast/book brand, At Home With The Buckleys which tackles 'the wild ride that is modern marriage, parenting and adulting'. The parents of two children are candid about their 'early lives, years of cult TV fame, having children and setting up their YouTube channel', cultivating over 250k subscribers. If that wasn't enough, they also have another podcast, In Sickness and In Health which focuses on discussing 'relationship non-negotiables.' As such, there is plenty of excitement to see this dynamic duo bring their witty rapport to the Gogglebox sofa. 'Can't wait to see you on it jay cartwright you legend,' Chris_leeds_united_woodrow said. 'Omg I'm buzzing!! Cannot wait!' jessica_sellwood95 echoed. 'These two are class. What an addition to gogglebox this is gonna be,' kellyann83 agreed. 'I'm already seated and laughing,' martinezcorno said. 'Literally, the best news!' foxytam1 added. 'Best news I've had today, yous will be brilliant,' Chris_canney declared. 'Haven't watched Googlebox in ages but definitely be tuning in now,' one convert shared. They will be joined on the sofa for the seventh season by Nick Grimshaw and niece Liv, Diversity duo Jordan Banjo and Perri Kiely and Rylan Clark and his mum, Linda. There are even rumours that Alison Hammond and her son Aiden – who have also done a travel show together – will make an appearance. 'Producers were impressed by the dynamic between Aidan and his mum on their new travel show, so wanted a piece of it for Celebrity Gogglebox,' a TV insider told The Sun. They continued: 'They're always looking for new duos to appear on the programme to keep it constantly feeling fresh, and, of course, fronting the Great British Bake Off means she's already part of the C4 family.' James Buckley's wife Clair, also 37, is an actor who appeared in various movies throughout the 2010s including Vendetta and The Comedian's Guide To Survival and an episode of the TV series Zapped (opposite her husband James). As recounted to The Guardian in 2022, the pair met over Twitter when Clair – who was living in Scotland at the time and had never seen The Inbetweeners – dropped him a message as he was grieving the loss of a friend. They finally met at one of James' DJ sets in Liverpool, where they bonded over their mutual love of The Beatles and the rest, as they say, is history. The loved-up couple got married in 2012 and have since had two sons together – Harrison and Jude – and have now forged a joint career documenting their lives. 'Our YouTube channel really took off during lockdown. Because I was in The Inbetweeners, which was such a success, viewers were curious about what my life might be like. 'What they found was far from some celebrity existence: we are from traditional working-class backgrounds and we don't take anything too seriously. People see themselves in us. 'Once lockdown was over, I thought our audience would be after more exciting content, but it turns out they just want to watch us sitting on the sofa getting on each other's nerves!' James told The Guardian. Their YouTube and podcast brand plays off th eplayful dynamic between the couple in which James gets on Clair's nerves. More Trending 'My favourite thing in the world is to get on Clair's nerves. And Clair is quite easy to wind up. So that's sort of what the podcast is as well,' he told NME about their recently launched show, The Buckleys. 'I would say it's a married couple podcast, but not how you usually see them. It's actually how married people talk to each other. 'We're talking about stuff that's mundane but funny. And when listeners come back at us with opinions, they're funny opinions,' Clair added.
