People all over love tuning in to catch the nation's armchair critics watching all the best telly on offer.

Now, while many fans of the hit Channel 4 show absolutely adore each Gogglebox family and their witty, weird and wonderful comments about each given flick or programme - it seems some have been left uncomfortable by one duo's on-screen dynamic.

Gogglebox viewers have since demanded that OG's Giles and Mary leave the show over their 'rude' behaviour.

The married couple cosied up to catch Channel 4 news at 10 all about Sir Bobby Charlton’s death.

"Look at that face, it’s just shining with integrity and kindness," Mary said while tearing up, to which hubby Giles responded: "Don’t start Nutty. Steady, steady now."

Mary quickly snapped back to Giles: "Oh shut up."

Giles then tried to comfort Mary by reaching over to her, at which points she pulls away before he says: "We don’t want you to break down."

"I’m not," Mary replied, "let me have my emotions without trying to quash them."

Giles replied: "Squash. Orange squash," to which Mary said: "Oh stop talking rubbish Giles."

She also later told Giles to 'shut up' for 'talking rubbish' again elsewhere in the segment.

The exchange clearly hasn't gone unnoticed with fans with many rushing to social media to share their reactions to it.

"Rude Mary…" declared one X, formerly Twitter user, "Think your time is up on Gogglebox."

A second questioned: "Is it not time for Mary and Giles to go. They bring NOTHING apart from winding me up."

"Giles and Mary need counselling," declared a third, while a fourth penned: "Why are Giles and Mary still spoiling this programme? They add nothing but their own misery and stupidity…"

Another echoed: "When are Mary and Miles getting axed from Gogglebox? Unbearable."

"Christ alive am I the only one that really dislikes Mary?" wrote a sixth before claiming. "[She] constantly puts poor Giles down."

Fans took to Twitter to share their reactions to the segment.

A seventh added: "Giles and Mary were funny and witty in the beginning. Now just angry bitter old people."

"Can you just stick to the funny moments between Mary and Giles? Not the bullying moments?" asked a final critic.

Others, however, didn't seem to share the same sentiments.

"Giles and Mary have been on form tonight," praised one Twitter user.

A second revealed: "I love Mary and Giles."

"Giles and Mary best people on gogglebox no question," tweeted a final viewer.

Tyla has reached out to Channel 4 for comment.

Gogglebox is available to stream on Channel 4.
