‘We’ve been really lucky except for that one incident. And then everything else is usually so fun and light-hearted.’
While she hasn’t said anything as controversial, Yvie has seen some of her own indiscretions end up on film, says Angie.
‘Yvie farts all the time, she drops her guts,’ says Angie. ‘And [the producers] made a wrap of all my burps, I was like OMG I’m disgusting.’
Adds Yvie: ‘I do forget the cameras are there, but my bra reminds me all the time. I very rarely watch the TV with bra on, normally, when the cameras aren’t there.
‘Nobody needs to see me in my PJs, with no bra on, laying down.’
Besides their one blip with the Dave Hughes scandal, Angie and Yvie say that their run on Gogglebox has been a dream – although it seems that the show is still not paying the kind of money one would expect, given its ongoing success.
‘I wouldn’t necessarily say we’re TV stars,’ says Angie. ‘I mean we’re on TV but being stars involves having lots of money and I definitely don’t have any of that, that’s for sure.
‘But it’s nice to be recognised for being yourself, it’s really rewarding.’
For her part, Yvie says she enjoys the notoriety they’ve gained, and doesn’t have any illusions about her place in the TV pecking order.
‘We’re D-list, definitely D-list celebrities,’ she says. ‘We’re not quite reality TV people, so there is a bit more love than they get.'
