Joanna had Gogglebox viewers in stitches

Emilia’s mother really made an impression after viewers found her reaction to Channel 4’s Naked Attraction absolutely hilarious.

The show sees singletons choosing a date from a selection of six naked people, based solely on attraction and the way they look naked.

Joanna’s initial reaction had viewers in stitches as she screamed in shock: “You see their willies! Oh My God.”

Her traditional British prudence certainly shines through as she remains entirely shocked by the programme, exclaiming “good god”, “oh no”, “oh shit almighty”, “no no no no” and “it’s too much”.

Fans of the show flocked to Twitter to express their love of Joanna with one person tweeting “Amelia Fox’s mum is hilarious”, whilst another said: “Amelia Fox’s mother is how I imagine my mother would react to Naked Attraction”.
