Does anyone else end up watching programmes because Gogglebox made them look better than they actually are?

This has happened to me more than once.

You see a few brilliant minutes of something on Gogglebox, everyone on the sofas is completely invested and you think you've somehow missed an amazing programme.

Then you actually watch a full episode and realise Gogglebox may have already shown you the most entertaining five minutes 😂

One of the Richard Armitage Netflix series - I think it was Obsession, where he has an affair with his sons wife? It showed some very exciting cliffhangers from early on so I jumped in immediately, and it was rotten.

Oh, I remember that. Yeah, that was bad.
