Gogglebox is a British reality television series created by Stephen Lambert, Tania Alexander and Tim Harcourt, and broadcast on Channel 4.

The first series launched on 7 March 2013, the current twenty-third series has been airing since 16 February 2024. The show was narrated by Caroline Aherne from its launch until her death in July 2016, after which Craig Cash took over.
