Gogglebox star Pete Sandiford brought his baby son Jimmy back to the small screen in tonight's (April 22) episode of the reality TV show.

As the armchair critics sat down to have their weekly catch-up of the biggest (and cringiest) entertainment from Britain's Got Talent to Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over to Expedition Bigfoot, Pete played an adorable game with his son.

After cracking a joke about the creepy nature of saying "come to daddy", viewers saw Pete bonding with his baby in a sweet glimpse into his life as a father.

As he held Jimmy in his arms, Pete swung him around the sofa in a pretend chase for his dog Colin. Because what's cuter than a baby? That's right, a dog and a baby. And it seems like the game proved a success as by the end even Jimmy was giggling.

This is one of the rare times Pete has brought his son onto the show and fans loved watching the sweet father-son interaction. "Nah I'm smitten with that baby can he be a permanent edition please," one viewer wrote. "Pete's son, is so adorable, and growing up fast," another added.

Back in September, Gogglebox fans were introduced to Jimmy for the first time as he lay in a bundle in his dad's arms. His first time on TV, though overwhelming, had viewers tearing up at seeing Pete as a first-time dad.

His latest appearance has been just as successful – we can't wait to see Pete grow as a father in the episodes to come.

Gogglebox airs Fridays at 9pm on Channel 4.
