Gogglebox star surprises domiciliary optometrist

OutsideClinic optometrist Kamaljit Kalsi was surprised when he was welcomed at a home visit by star of Channel 4’s Gogglebox, Marina Wingrove.

Kalsi carried out a sight test and dispensed a pair of bright blue Brooklyn spectacles for Wingrove at her home near Bristol.

The optometrist said he did not recognise Wingrove initially because she was wearing a face mask but recognised her voice.

‘Eventually, I picked up the courage and asked her if we had met before. She asked if I watch Gogglebox. When we were at a safe distance, she removed her mask and I couldn't believe it was Marina from the programme sitting in front of me,’ Kalsi said.
