Gogglebox’s George Gilbey for own travel show


‘Gogglebox’ star George Gilbey could be set to star in his own travel show.

The cheeky chappy – who recently took part in ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ – has revealed he’s had a number of offers for his own television shows since rising to reality TV fame but admits his favourite idea is to introduce his own fly-on-the wall travel series which would see him indulge in quirky cuisines and take part in local customs.

He said: "I’ve had lots of offers and ideas since leaving ‘Celebrity Big Brother’.

"Top is doing a travel show like Karl Pilkington’s ‘An Idiot Abroad’.

"It’s a dream job for me as I’ve got the travel bug. Put me in any adverse situation and I attract madness."

George – who is an electrician from Clacton in Essex – gave up his place on ‘Gogglebox’, in which he was seen critiquing television shows with his mum and dad, to take part in CBB.

He told the Daily Star newspaper: "They were very nice about it but they told me that their show is about ordinary people watching telly. It was a risk but I decided to find out what people think of me.

"And as I made the final, I guess people liked what I did."
