Tom Jr, who is a trained dance choreographer, announced earlier this year that he hds left Gogglebox to “explore other opportunities”.

“I’ve loved every minute and I’m eternally grateful to Channel 4 and Studio Lambert for allowing me to be a part of the show,” he said at the time.

“But new opportunities are knocking on the door and it’s time to explore them. I look forward to enjoying the show as a viewer and not having to worry about saying something stupid.”

Tom was replaced by his sister Vanessa, who made her show debut in March.
