Helena, who appears on the show with her mother Alison and father George, admitted that she “doesn’t really watch TV” when she’s not on Gogglebox.
‘I don’t really watch TV at home, I don’t have TV but [Gogglebox is] How do I catch up with what’s going on? I go to my mother’s house and use her electricity to watch TV,” she said.
“It’s a pretty good job because you can sit and eat and watch TV.”

The family just scored a big win at the TRIC Awards earlier this week as they won the gong of entertainment.

This year’s TRIC Awards took an unexpected turn on Tuesday, as This Morning lost the daytime gong for the first time in four years after the stars of the hit show avoided the ceremony.
He welcomed a host of Britain’s best-known TV stars to Park Lane’s Grosvenor House on Tuesday, but the presenters of This Morning avoided the ceremony.
Holly Willoughby previously attended the star-studded awards but skipped this year’s ceremony, even though the show was up for the Daytime award, which they ultimately lost to A Place In The Sun.

Family: Her mum, Alison, has gushed about her daughter, saying it’s ‘lovely’ that the family trio gets together every week to watch TV
Winner! The family just scored a big win at the TRIC Awards earlier this week as they won the Entertainment gong award.
The 63-year-old broadcaster, who presented This Morning alongside his wife Ruth Langsford, has not held back from speaking his mind after working for ITV, following Schofield’s confession of an affair with a much younger colleague.
This Morning regulars Vanessa Feltz and Martin Lewis were the only stars of the ITV show in attendance on Tuesday.
Eamonn has been strongly condemning ITV’s ‘toxic’ environment and management, as the company has come under fire following the Phillip scandal, claiming it knows ‘the truth’.
The GB News presenter’s comments over the past month came under fire during a parliamentary hearing, at which MPs questioned ITV bosses Carolyn McCall and Kevin Lygo.
In a mockery of Eamonn, Mr Lygo claimed that the former presenters who were bashing the channel had not made any claims while on ITV.
And, he added, it was “not surprising” to hear such comments.
Since Schofield’s resignation, This Morning has been plagued by allegations of “toxicity”, including from the show’s former resident physician, Dr. Ranj Singh, who expressed concerns about “harassment and discrimination” and later felt he had been “excluded” for reporting irregularities.
The Radio and Television Industries Club hosted its annual awards with Judi Love and Rob Rinder as hosts and more than 1,000 guests in attendance.
The TRIC Awards recognize the best television, radio and online programmes, as well as Britain’s most beloved stars and talents, with the winners decided by a vote of the public and industry.
