GOGGLEBOX fans confessed they “turned off” the most recent episode of the series following “weird” scenes.

Viewers of the Channel 4 staple, which airs on a Friday night, flicked off a segment which even the show stars branded “pervy.”

It came as the Gogglebox panel returned to the show to discuss the latest antics on the small screen.

After analysing the goings-on in Celebrity Bear Hunt, Gladiators and The Apprentice to name a few, talk turned to the latest instalment of The White Lotus.

The hit HBO series has made a comeback with its third season – with a plotline centred on a full-frontal nude scene and incest storyline.

In the new series, Patrick Schwarzenegger – who plays the role of Saxon – flashes viewers in a segment where his bum is in full view.

Saxon was then in bed in a hotel room when he speculated about his sister and if she’d had sex yet.

He then he turned to his brother Lochlan and asked what kind of explicit stuff he was into.

The scenes caused shock among the Gogglebox panel, with Giles telling his wife Mary: “So far, so pervy.”

Star Jake then told twin Harry: “I have never done this by the way!” referring to Saxon’s naked bathroom antics.

Pete then got stuck into the analysis and joked: “Something happens to people when they stop in hotels.”

He added to sister Sophie: “It doesn’t matter if it is a budget one or an expensive one, there has been many a night when I have heard it through the walls.

“I put two shortbreads in my ears!”

Yet fans were less than impressed at the airing of the segment on the hit show.

One took to X to put: “Why does #Gogglebox always end with the weird stuff.

“Turned off for the last five minutes.

“White Lotus is a no-go for me, sorry.”

Another mused: “Gogglebox has just made me put a line through watching the white lotus.

“Too weird and disturbing. No thanks!”

FUTURE REVEALED?

Meanwhile, the future of Gogglebox’s celebrity series also recently came to light.

It came after the spin-off has boasted six instalments so far.

And it has now been confirmed that this summer will see the return of the star-filled show where well know faces will settle onto couches, arm chairs and celebrity thrones for a seventh time.

Names have not been confirmed but series six was a debut year for Annie Mac, Sara Cox and Rio Ferdinand so viewers will be keen to see if any new characters will be introduced this year.

Series seven was revealed as part of an announcement on a raft of confirmed Channel 4 titles for the spring and summer schedules.

These include a Stand Up to Cancer celebrity Bake Off, Series six of The Handmaids Tale, comedy-Disability Benefits staring Rosie Jones and a new dating/reality format called Virgin Island.
