Georgia Tennant joins Celebrity Gogglebox – but not with David Tennant

Georgia Tennant has announced that she will be joining Celebrity Gogglebox, appearing on tonight’s brand-new episode of the programme – but she won’t be sat alongside her husband, David Tennant.

Instead, she will be paired up with broadcaster and author Fearne Cotton, with the two appearing in a video posted to Instagram to announce their involvement.

Cotton started off the video by saying: “This is extremely exciting. We are gonna watch a hell of a lot of TV, Georgia Tennant.”

Tennant affirmed she too was “really excited about it”, before the duo went on to discuss what snacks they would be getting to have during their telly-watching marathon.

“I’m feeling crisps,” Cotton said, to which Tennant revealed she doesn’t like potatoes, quickly scuppering that plan.

This isn’t the first time Cotton has appeared on Celebrity Gogglebox, having previously been paired up with Gok Wan. In contrast, this will mark Tennant’s first appearance.
