Fans commented on the post, revealing they couldn't wait to see the pair back on their screens as some of Britains sharpest armchair critics.
One viewer said: "I can't wait, you two are my favourites!"
While another fan agreed: "Can't wait, love the two of you together." and another fan commented: "Buzzing for the best programme on telly to be back!"
Siblings reunited
Fans were particularly happy by the news the sisters would be reunited on screen again after Izzi was forced to take a break from the show earlier this year thanks to lockdown restrictions.
As the sisters don't live in the same house, they were forced to stay apart as the country went into lockdown, leaving Ellie's boyfriend Nat to step in and take Izzi's place.
When they were finally reunited in the last series, Ofcom received complaints regarding social distancing.
Channel 4 has confirmed that Gogglebox will be back with series 16 next week, and that the series will consist of 15 episodes for fans to enjoy.
The new series of Gogglebox starts on 11th September at 9pm on Channel 4.
