On the latest episode of Gogglebox, which aired on Friday, 20 October, there was a special tribute to Dave at the start, which saw him hilariously jump up at Tom Senior, who doubled over in pain as the dog's paws hit his crotch.

A drink was then knocked over the TV remote as Tom's son Shaun and wife Julie howled with laughed.The C4 Gogglebox team also posted the clip on X - formerly known as Twitter - captioning the post: "Utter chaos and we’ll miss it #RIPDave @TheMalonesGB #Gogglebox" Devastated Gogglebox rushed to comment to offer their condolences to the family, as one wrote: "Loved every laugh u gave us Dave shall miss you so so much xxxx."
