Gogglebox fans were thrilled and amused by regular participant Jenny Newby’s festive greeting to her co-star Lee Riley.
The 65-year-old professional couch potato appeared to be in the midst of a game of Speak Out – the hilarious board game which involves participants speaking phrases while having their mouth held open by a plastic device.
While it might be unclear to many exactly what Jenny was saying, her message to 52-year-old friend Lee left many in hysterics as she slurred and wheezed out a greeting.
The message itself seemed to have been sent to Lee, and his boyfriend Steve Mail, directly – but the TV star promptly uploaded the message to Instagram for fans and followers to watch too.
Sharing the footage, Lee wrote: “When Jenny sends me and Steve a Christmas message to us in Cyprus think the drinks have kicked in.”
The footage showed Jenny with her mouth agape and wearing a bright pink festive jumper.
She could be heard saying: “Hiya Lee and Steve.”
While other barely distinguishable comments included: “I’d just like to wish you a very happy Christmas and a Happy New Year,” and: “I’ll see you soon.”

Meanwhile, members of the wider Gogglebox family also commented on the post, with Mica and Marcus typing: “Happy Christmas guys love from Mica and Marcus.”

Lee and Steve are currently enjoying a luxury break in Cyprus where they are staying at the 5-star Merit Crystal Cove Hotel.
The duo have been making some followers green with envy as they have been sharing sun-soaked photos from their trip.
Sharing a selfie via Instagram last week, Steve wrote: “Merry Christmas everyone hope you all have an amazing day love and best wishes from sunny Cyprus.”
One jealous fan responded to the message to write: “It’s bloody freezing here in the UK. I’m so jealous. You both look amazing.”
Another typed: “Wow! Looks amazing! How lucky you both are. Have the best day ever.”
And a further fan wrote: “Merry Christmas you too. Enjoy the weather.”
Lee himself had also shared a festive message for fans and followers via the photo sharing app.
He typed alongside an image: “Next stop sunny Cyprus and home for the festive season. We wish each and everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy healthy 2022.”
