Gogglebox returned on Friday night for a special Stand Up to Cancer episode, with the show's regulars sharing air time with a stellar line-up of celebrities. And while fan favourites Giles and Mary chatted away on the show, viewers were quick to compare them to another famous couple – David Mitchell and his wife Victoria Coren Mitchell!
The Peep Show star and his presenter wife set Twitter alight with their Celebrity Gogglebox appearance, with many calling them a younger version of Giles and Mary.

"You were the Giles and Mary of the celebs, sofa very similar to their chairs too," one Twitter user told Victoria. "We think that when you get older you'll be Giles and Mary. Your sofa already matches their wallpaper," another said.
