Meet the new cast.

A new household will be introduced on Gogglebox tonight. Martin Brady and Rory Egan in Rialto, Dublin, who will join other households on the TV3 show from all over Ireland including Dublin, Kildare, Cavan, Cork, Navan, Wicklow and Limerick.

Martin and Rory have been friends and bridge partners for over 10 years and still play bridge together up to 3 times a week. Rory, who is from Blackrock, runs the biggest Bridge congress in Ireland. When he’s not looking after dog Pedro and his pet snake, Rory also enjoys public speaking and writing.

Martin, who is a university lecturer, has a massive interest in History and Literature and enjoys going to the theatre. He has been known to binge watch episodes of Game of Thrones and is also a massive animation fan, especially The Simpsons and Family Guy. While Rory enjoys reality programmes such as Deadliest CatchThe Daily Show with Jon Stewart and also likes the odd documentary.

Last week TV3 introduced us to ten different households, including new Twitter sensations The Tully twins, Neal and Fergal from Cavan, Cabra pals Jamie, Lindsay, Ashley and Grainne, Castleknock ladies Angela and Eileen and Liberties duo Tracie and Anita.

We’re sad to say that Michael T Higgins won’t feature on tonight’s show.

The shows they have watched for this week’s Gogglebox are X Factor, Strictly Come Dancing and Fifty Ways to Kill Your Mammies.

We’re looking forward to it already.
