Gogglebox viewers were reduced to tears on Saturday night as the 10-year anniversary special paid tribute to cast members who have sadly passed away.
The Channel 4 reality show has marked 10 years on air with a reminiscent compilation episode featuring both the current and original cast members.
And viewers said they were left feeling very tearful as tributes were paid to stars who have died in recent years - including June and Leon Bernicoff, Mary Cook and actress Caroline Aherne.
June and Leon, who were among the show's original cast members, were remembered in the special as an array of their most iconic scenes were aired.
June left the show in 2018 following the death of her husband in December 2017, and the retired teacher then sadly passed away following a short illness in May 2020.

At the beginning of the show, the voice of Gogglebox's original narrator Caroline was also used, leaving viewers feeling very emotional.
The Royle Family star Caroline died at the age of 52 in July 2016 following a two-year battle with lung cancer.
