Gogglebox viewers have taken aim at Giles Wood and Mary Killen after they dished out their political views on the show.
The couple have been appearing on the long-running Channel 4 programme since 2015 and have provided plenty of stand-out moments during the year.
However, their comments during a segment on the latest episode have left many people unimpressed.
This week the couch critics watched footage of the recent by-elections, which unsurprisingly sparked plenty of sassy comments from the group.
Things kicked off when Mary asked her husband if she knew the results, to which he replied: ‘No I don’t watch mainstream media because I don’t trust it anymore.’
Meanwhile, Sophie Sandiford was fascinated by by-elections as there was ‘usually a bit of scandal’ involved.

‘You usually only get them if someone’s been sacked for misconduct or doing something illegal or have left,’ she said.
‘Or have died,’ her brother Pete quipped.
After being informed of the massive swing against the Tories, some of the TV stars took aim at Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
But the real backlash began when Giles and Mary started reflecting on the 1997 election.
‘It’s going to be even worse than then. With all those people crowing about a Labour victory and we pretended that we voted for them because we were worried we were going to be lynched,’ he said.
Quickly sharing their own thoughts on social media, those watching on at home didn’t hold back.
‘Sorry Giles and Mary, you were my faves at one time but no more. You are rich therefore you’re happy with Torys unfairness. As long as the rich are ok you are happy,’ user Fiona posted on X.
‘Tory w*****s showing their true colours on #Gogglebox,’ Jason said.
Anthony wrote: ‘Always forgot how much I truly hate Giles and Mary. At First I thought they were a bit weird, but now it’s beyond utterly unbearable whenever they appear on screen. Every new season I pray they won’t return, but then they f**king pop [up]. GB News loving Tory t**tsno doubts.’
Kasha also echoed: ‘Can’t believe how insufferable Giles and Mary are.’
‘Giles and Mary are Tories, what a surprise,’ Jan wrote.
‘Oh Giles, you’ve crashed and burned in my estimation,’ BeardyBill commented.
Another viewer said that while it was ‘no surprise’ they were Tories, they’d ‘been trying to ignore that for years’.
‘You would only lie about who you voted for if you knew there was shame in doing so. If so why the need to lie?’ someone else shared.
Meanwhile one person posted: ‘Ok they’re iconic but they’re tiring now, so miserable and always arguing. Time to go.’
This isn’t the first time the couple sparked outrage as last year Mary shocked viewers when labeling her husband a ‘b******d’.
While watching TV programme Beef, she became pretty enraged defending Waitrose.
Talking about a character in the show that looked like the people ‘tutting in a queue in Waitrose’, Giles sparked the disagreement.
He said: ‘He’d be sent to that problem desk which I always avoid, somewhere in the middle of Waitrose where there’s always people queuing and tutting.

‘Do you remember that place? Where they express dissatisfaction?’
Mary brutally replied: ‘Oh you’re just such a b*****d. Waitrose is beautifully run, there’s never a queue of people tutting.’
Outside of Gogglebox, Giles is an artist, specialising in painting interiors while Mary is a columnist for The Spectator.
