Quote: Hercules Grytpype Thynne @ 30th April 2017, 12:40 AMOne of my own choices now.........................Joe Swash. Jeez I like to punch his lights out - creepy turd.
Ben Shephard, as he seems from same gene pool as Joe Swash but quieter.
I actually prefer Piers Morgan on GMB so that either makes Shephard offensively abhorrent or that I am not meant for this world and should welcome everything I get and like it because it's all I deserve . . .
Sometimes Dermot O'Leary annoys me too. I feel like I remember he and Ben Shephard presenting on T4 together yearssssss ago (as in about 15 years, blimey). I was convinced they were a couple back then. But alas, no.
I don't mind Dermot on TV so much, but I find his radio 2 show interminably boring.
Quote: fopdoodle @ 29th April 2017, 12:15 PMI have to make Chris Packham exempt as he's on the autistic spectrum, but, incidentally, I always had a problem with Jimmy Savile and Rolf Harris when I was a kid, but with good reason as it transpired. My parents didn't get it, but maybe kids have an instinct . . . I don't know, but feeling revulsion for no apparent reason must have some sort of primal instinct behind it, and perhaps my request for a ray gun as a child thinking I could 'zap' people I wanted to stop them annoying or boring me to death was a defence against the likes of Rick Stein . . . it was simply them, or me.
Until I realised that Chris Peckham had been diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome late in life, as I indeed have, I'll fully admit to disliking him too. He was a guest on Room 101 and wished to put childrens' drawings into the vault and stated that he'd thrown a friend's child's picture in the bin.

Agree totally.

Ben Shephard is just plain dull. I used to joke with my son that his backstage rider consisted of a flock of ewes wearing kinky undies.
I hate Mary Berry. I don't know why, but she looks spiteful.
Quote: TheBlueNun @ 5th May 2017, 11:31 AMI hate Mary Berry. I don't know why, but she looks spiteful.
Thank-you for saying it first as I thought I may be struck by lightning if I did.
I fail to see the appeal of either her or Paul or indeed the baking element of Bake Off in a culture of empty calorie over-consumption and consequent obesity, but I always watch given creative content - and for Mel and Sue of course.
But Paul seems to be lacking in any sort of charisma or personality, while Mary just seems to be playing the stereotype of an old lady when I've heard she likes a gin and tonic and can be quite feisty off-camera.
I just want her to push a whole cake into her face then turn and smile at Paul with a cakey teethed grin while extending her middle finger up to him . . . THEN I would like her.

The reason I don't like him is because he dislikes cats. Which I don't think is a symptom of Asperger's. So I shall freely continue!

I take back everything I said in his defence . . . kill him!
Yay!
I liked Chris Packham on Really Wild Show but I find it hard to watch him now because he always seems to be flirting and using double entendres with his female guests and co-presenters on Springwatch and Autumnwatch. They are teatime, family shows and he spoils them with some of the subtle comments he makes.
Davina McCall annoys me and I'm not sure why because she seems like a friendly, bouncy person. I liked her on Gods Gift but she irritates me on Million Pound Drop and and Big Brother (when I used to watch Big Brother)
I had a massive crush on Packham when I was little. If only I'd known then that he was the devil incarnate.

A little wicked can be good, if compared to a bit of Rick Stein, who inexplicably had a torrid affair with an innocent bystander . . .
Don't wear Jeans Mary, just don't.
But Mary in denim with cats as new show . . . I like that . . .
Queen Mary is cool, I love the way her eyes light up at the mere whiff of a bit of booze, looks fab in jeans and I won't have a word said against her.

But if she had cats around her too, she'd have an excuse for having a whiff of pee . . .
I was starting to enjoy your one woman threadathon Fop, but the double whammy of insulting Berry and cats in one has done for ya now.
