Gogglebox looking for new cast members- could the next sofa stars be from Milton Keynes?

    As the show reaches its ninth year, the creators of Gogglebox are on the hunt for new members.

    The award-winning Channel 4 show features families and friends from around the UK reacting to television programmes from their own homes.

    With a number of the cast recently leaving for a number of different reasons, bosses are now on the hunt for new people.

    You never know, we might finally see our first sofa stars from Milton Keynes!

    Unlike most TV shows, there isn't an application process for getting onto the show. Instead, producers 'scout' their perfect stars.

    It is rumoured that the scouts search pubs and shops within local communities to find potential cast members.

    The bosses are known to travel the country- so be ready at all times, you never know when you may be spotted!

    Executive Producer Victoria Ray recently told The Daily Star: "There are going to be new faces. They'll be joining during the current series.

    "We pick people who don't want to be on telly. The ideal people are ones who don't know that they're funny," adding that they should also be "charismatic and engaging."
