FANS of Gogglebox have been left devastated after stars Jenny Newby and Lee Riley announced they had filmed their last episode this season.
The friends from Hull, who joined the Channel 4 cast in 2014, confirmed to fans on their Instagram account that tonight’s episode was “the last one”.
Duo Jenny and Lee sat together on the sofa to make the Gogglebox announcement, as they joked it was a “sad Friday” while they filmed themselves.
“Why is it a sad Friday?” Lee asked, before suddenly inhaling and looking shocked as Jenny revealed: “Because it’s the last one.”
“It’s our last filming week this week so we’re filming today,” Lee went on to clarify, looking more seriously towards the camera.
Jenny concluded: “I’m going home soon,” as her best mate pretended to be overjoyed to be getting rid of her and spending some alone time.
“Have a great Friday everyone last week of filming for us of series 17,” the pair captioned the clip, as fans immediately flooded the comments.
“Oh no, not the last one, what will I do with my Friday nights?” one follower immediately commented, as another wrote: “That went too quickly!”
A third chimed in: “Oh no!!! Back to boring Friday evenings again, I hope you two are doing another series together.”
“Sad it’s the last one, I’ve really enjoyed watching each week. You two are definitely my favourite! Hopefully will see you next series,” a fourth said.
The pair normally film for the show from Jenny’s holiday caravan at Sand le Mere, but with Jenny going home, they are due to take a break.
It comes as the most recent series comes to a close, ahead of the upcoming series in June – which has recently signed Clara Amfo to join the cast.
Last year, fans were left similarly devastated when the pair announced they had filmed their last episode in the December season.
Jenny and Lee delighted viewers when they later confirmed they would be returning in February of this year.

The pair have been best friends from over 20 years after meeting at a pub where Jenny used to work – and they have been joined at the hip ever since and even enjoy holidays together.
Jenny’s husband, Ray, only recently appeared on the show for the first time – but he prefers to stay out of the limelight.
Meanwhile, Lee has been with his partner Steve Mail for 26 years.
