Fans of Gogglebox have called for long-time star Mary Killen to be axed from the show with many branding her "joyless and horrible".
In the most recent episode of the Channel 4 programme, the contributor from Wiltshire was left appalled after witnessing Finland's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmo, Sweden.
Being visibly disgusted by the act, which involved a man appearing naked from the waist down, Mary Killen shouted: "Oh you stupid little man!"
Talking with her husband Giles, she later added: "It's when you've got no talent, you just try and shock instead."

One person wrote on social media: "I'm sorry, but Mary is so utterly joyless and it's not amusing anymore."
Another person said: "Mary has just turned into a horrible, joyless h**."
A third person added: "Please bin fun sponge Mary. Keep Giles but get rid of that annoying bore."
A fourth person said: "I used to think Giles was going to end up under the patio, but now I think the bloke deserves a medal for putting up with Mary’s joyless ways."
