Honoring the late Gogglebox cast members, including George Gilbey, who recently passed away.
Sad news has struck the world of Gogglebox, as it has been reported that beloved star George Gilbey has passed away at the age of 40. Fans and fellow stars are now in mourning, as they remember the lively and entertaining personality that George brought to the show. His tragic death was the result of an accident at work, according to authorities. Though they have not officially identified George, police have confirmed that they responded to a call on Wednesday morning, where a man had fallen from a height and sustained fatal injuries.

In a heartfelt statement released by the Gogglebox team, they expressed their condolences to George's family and friends during this difficult time. George had been a part of the Gogglebox family for eight series, alongside his mother Linda and step-father Pete. The statement also mentioned that the family has asked for privacy as they grieve the loss of their loved one.

George joined the show in its second series in 2013, alongside his mother and late step-father. He quickly became a fan favorite with his hilarious commentary and larger-than-life personality. In 2014, he also appeared on Celebrity Big Brother, where he finished in fourth place.

Sadly, George is not the only Gogglebox star who has passed away. Let's take a moment to remember the other cast members who have contributed to the show's success, but are no longer with us.

Pete McGarry, who appeared on the show with his wife Linda and step-son George, died in June 2021 after a battle with cancer. He was 71 years old. The Gogglebox family released a statement expressing their sorrow and remembering Pete as a beloved member of the team.

Pat Webb, who was affectionately known as "Mummy Pat" on the show, passed away in January 2021 at the age of 75 after a long illness. She appeared on Gogglebox alongside her son Stephen and was a fan favorite. Stephen posted a touching tribute to his mother on social media, remembering her as "one in a million" and the center of their family.

June and Leon Bernicoff, who were the first couple to be cast on Gogglebox, both passed away in recent years. Leon died in 2017 at the age of 83, following a short illness. His wife June passed away in May 2020 at the age of 82. The Gogglebox team paid tribute to the couple, remembering their warmth, wit, and contrasting personalities that endeared them to the nation.

Mary Cook, who appeared on the show with her best friend Marina Wingrove, passed away in August 2021 at the age of 92. The beloved Bristolian was known for her witty and cheeky comments, and she will be deeply missed by her family and friends. Channel 4 released a statement expressing their sadness at her passing and remembering her as a dear friend to many.

Andy Michael, who appeared on Gogglebox with his family, also passed away in August 2021 after a short illness. He was 61 years old. The Gogglebox family remembered him as a beloved husband, father, and member of the team, who brought wit and insight to the show.

Lastly, we remember Caroline Aherne, who voiced the show's iconic narrator "Mum" until her death in 2016. The actress and comedian took a break from the show to receive treatment for cancer, but sadly passed away at the age of 52. Gogglebox paid tribute to her and her contributions to the show, and she will always be remembered as a beloved member of the Gogglebox family.

Rest in peace, George, Pete, Pat, June, Leon, Mary, Andy, and Caroline. You will be dearly missed.
