Gogglebox stars Marcus Luther and Mica Venna battled it out over household chores on Friday's Good Morning Britain as they debated a new app, but viewers were split over the issue too. <\/p>\n

Starling bank has launched a household chores app that allows users to assign jobs around the home and keep track of who has been pulling their weight, which Mica thought was a great idea – but husband Marcus didn't agree.<\/p>\n

Asked whether he thought the app was a good idea, Marcus said: "Well if you want another mother, then you might as well get the app. But I don't want another mother, I've already got one over there."<\/p>\n

Mica looked taken aback as she said: "Oh, so I'm like a mum?"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Marcus answered: "Well that's how it is in relationships and marriage, it's like having a mum, especially when someone's telling you to clean up all of the time.<\/p>\n

"She's outvoted because the kids stand with me. Nobody wants an app. We're always going to be in the wrong, you're the only one that's going to be in the right."<\/p>\n

Mica shot back: "No, me and the app! I want in, I want to download that now. I wouldn't have to micromanage, I could look on the app and see have you done your bit, it would notify me that you haven't done your bit."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But Marcus made hosts Ben Shephard and Charlotte Hawkins laugh with a cheeky joke as Mica claimed he wasn't doing enough chores in the garden.<\/p>\n

He said: "I've been married to you for many years, more years than I would have done on a life sentence and there are better ways than this app for me to trim your bush and mow your lawn."<\/p>\n

Mica admitted that there was "slamming of cupboards and flaring of nostrils" in their house when she felt that Marcus wasn't doing enough chores, but a poll of GMB viewers showed that 76% thought the app would be likely to cause trouble.<\/p>\n

One viewer commented on X: "Chances are we already know the answer. I don\u2019t need an app"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Someone else asked: "Why do they think anyone needs that?"<\/p>\n

Another viewer wrote: "Who needs a calculator for doing this ? Surely you know yourself if your other half isn't pulling their weight. Either put your foot down or get rid. Simple really"<\/p>\n

Someone else added: "It\u2019s disgusting you should not have to do this it\u2019s give and take not this rubbish everyone should muck in help what a load of toddle"<\/p>\n

But one fan commented: "I love Marcus , I\u2019d do all the cleaning for him."<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
