Gogglebox fans in hysterics as Malone family suffer major mishap on screen

GOGGLEBOX fans have been left in hysterics as the Malone family suffered a major mishap on screen on Friday night.

Viewers of the Channel 4 show flooded social media after Tom Sr was pushed off the sofa in the chaotic scenes.

The latest episode of the show saw the Gogglebox stars tune in to watch scenes from Last Woman On Earth with Sarah Pascoe.

The comedian was seen heading to Greece to meet a group of people speaking a very rare language made up of whistling.

Sara, 41, was seen trying out the language - as the stars watching on their sofas also gave it a go in their own homes.

Among them was the Malone family, including mum Julie, son Shaun and dad Tom Sr, who were joined by their dog Dave.

But as Tom revealed his whistling ability, the Rottweiler followed the sound and jumped up on his lap and onto his chest.

It meant that Tom Sr was pushed off of his armchair and onto the floor, flipping upside down in the chaotic scenes.

Meanwhile, Julie and Shaun looked on in shock before bursting into laughter at the major TV mishap.

Fans flooded Twitter to admit they were left in hysterics over the scenes, as they begged "protect Dave at all costs".

"Crying laughing at Dave, he really should have his own show," one penned, as another chimed in: "Dave is the star of the show!"

"Dave probably thought Dad Malone was whistling for his walks," a third added alongside a series of laughing emojis.

As a fourth said: "Haha! I absolutely love Dave!" a fifth chimed in: "Dave the dog is hilarious - snorted with laughter."

A sixth concluded: "I would happily watch a whole hour of Dave the dog! Please someone make this happen."

Gogglebox airs Fridays on Channel 4 at 9pm
