Gogglebox: Dave the dog’s funniest moments as Malone’s pay tribute to him
The Malone family from Manchester regularly appear on the show, discussing the week’s TV programs while watching, usually in the company of their furry friends.
But this week the Malones announced that Dave, one of their Rottweilers, had passed away.
With a video of Dave, the family posted a touching tribute on Instagram, saying: “RIP Dave xxx There are no words to describe you or how much you meant to us. That was you on Sunday waiting for your dad to come back and he just went out to the car x
“We will all miss you so much”
Dave often appeared on Gogglebox and sat on the sofa with the family. Here are some of Dave’s best bits from the show.

When Tom Malone started saying, “Where is David?” Where is he?” Dave jumped up from the sofa as if to say, “Here I am.”
