Gogglebox favourites Jenny and Lee delighted their fans on Friday, filming a message from their caravan ahead of the series finishing for the summer.

Speaking to the camera in their usual jovial manner, the duo said: "This evening will be the last show of the series," before dissolving into giggles over Lee covering the screen of his phone, leaving Jenny unable to see.

"Have a lovely summer everybody," Lee continued, before adding: "We'll see you in September. Have a great summer guys. Thank you for all your comments during this series."

They captioned the video along similar lines, writing: "Happy Friday everyone gutted it’s the last show of series 21 have a fabulous summer and we’ll be back on the couch in September," signing off with a plea to viewers.

"Voting for the #NTAs closes Friday 2nd June at 11pm. If you haven't already voted #Gogglebox for The Bruce Forsyth Entertainment Award, now's your chance!"

Jenny and Lee are Gogglebox favourites

Though Jenny and Lee are very much not a couple, the loveable TV stars have been best friends for over 20 years. Both are happily married off-screen and while Lee's husband Steve has made the odd guest appearance on the TV show or posed for a photo with the pair, Jenny's husband Ray is much more private.

Ray was offered the opportunity to join his wife on Gogglebox when she was approached by a researcher at Beverley Races Ladies' Day in 2014 but he decided not to take part. Instead, she convinced her long-term friend to become her on-screen partner.

Lee previously told Hull Daily Mail: "I wasn’t [at Beverley Races] but she asked me if I wanted to sit and do a test filming with her. I’d never seen Gogglebox, it had only just started, so I walked into filming swearing my head off because she’d got me out of bed on my day off."

Jenny admitted she was always a big fan of Gogglebox and jumped at the opportunity to join the show back in 2014. "I was a big fan of it right from the beginning,” she said. “If my friends were going out, I’d say, ‘I can’t, I’ve got to stay in and watch Gogglebox’. I loved it. So to be on it is amazing. I’d never have thought it would happen in a million years."
