Celebrity Gogglebox is adding another famous face to its sofa for tonight’s episode, with This Morning star Alison Hammond joining the 2025 cast. It marks the presenter’s first time on the hit Channel 4 series, which sees stars watch some of week’s biggest TV moments.

Channel 4 announced that Alison will be appearing in tonight’s episode, joining her sister Saundra and her son Aidan, who she hosted BBC Two’s Florida Unpacked. In a statement, Alison said: “I’m so excited to be doing Celebrity Gogglebox with my son Aidan. We’ve always loved watching telly together, and now we get to do it on the sofa for the nation!

“It’s a real family affair too, because my fabulous sister Saundra is getting involved as well. Expect laughs, eye-rolls, and lots of commentary, classic Hammond style!”

Reports of Alison joining the cast of Celebrity Gogglebox hit the headlines back in May, with the This Morning star and her son tipped to join the show.

The current series of Celebrity Gogglebox has seen the likes of Paddy McGuinness, Vernon Kay, Clare Balding, Rylan Clark, Nick Grimshaw and other stars watch the telly highlights of the week.

While the series began last month, some fans weren’t impressed with its big return – complaining that it felt too “forced” for some of the celebs.

“Not the dreaded celebrities again, so many of them are so annoying #Celebritygogglebox,” one wrote, while another said: “Celebrity Gogglebox just isn’t funny like the original, it feels forced! #gogglebox #Celebritygogglebox.”

Vicky Pattison is also on the cast this year alongside her longtime friend Pete Wicks. The former Geordie Shore star opened up about filming the show and the challenges they faced during the ongoing heatwave.

Speaking on her podcast with Angela Scanlon, Vicky said: “We’re done. It’s in the bag. Last one is this week so make sure you tune in. I can’t promise any feminist rants. I was sweating me t**s off.

“It was 40 degrees in my front room trying to do that the other day, and obviously, with the heatwave we’ve been having this week, it’s been f*****g savage. Yeah, literally swamp gusset galore.”

This series of Celebrity Gogglebox also saw Rag’n’Bone Man join the cast, marking his first ever reality TV appearance.

Celebrity Gogglebox continues tonight at 9pm on Channel 4.
