Channel 4 viewers could barely believe their ears last night as Gogglebox‘s senior couch potato critics turned the air blue with a cheeky slip.
The Friday night (20.09.19) show opened in Bristol, dropping in on pals Mary and Marina as they reminisced about their youth.
Mary admitted she had been a keen singer when she was a child – giving both Marina and everyone watching at home a brief demonstration of her warbling.

An impressed Marina reckoned her friend should apply to show off her singing skills on Britain’s Got Talent.

But a reluctant Mary shrugged off the thought, modestly responding: “Oh I couldn’t be bothered.”
She continued: “I should have done that when I was about 10 years old. I used to [bleep] ’em out then.”

After a moment of confusion for Marina followed by a swift realisation of what she’d said from her misspeaking mate, Mary corrected herself.
“I meant sing them out, you know,” she chuckled as Marina also tittered along.

Marina replied: “I know what you meant, Mary!”
For clarity, Mary’s X-rated gaffe begins with ‘w’ and rhymes with ‘plank’. How did that pop out of her mouth?
Fans went wild on social media over the mistake, with dozens of emoji-packed tweets containing gifs expressing extreme shock.
“[Bleep] them out??? #Gogglebox,” repeated one incredulous Twitter user.
“Mary saying ‘I used to [bleep] one out about singing in her youth stopped me in my tracks! #Gogglebox,” added another amused observer.
Someone who couldn’t recall Mary and Marina’s names contributed: “Them two old girls on Gogglebox make my life.”
And another tickled viewer summed it up with: “Mary and Marina are the best! #Gogglebox.”
– Gogglebox airs on Channel 4 on Fridays at 9pm
