Ben Fogle refused to discuss Meghan Markle with Piers Morgan, who was desperately trying to slate her & Prince Harry.
Isn’t it time for all this unsavoury rubbish to stop ?

Can't abide the man, he could well choke on that plum!

What is good about an interview where the interviewee is unable to make their reply heard over the constant interruptions and heckling of the interviewer?

It's nice to see someone showing a bit of loyalty to friends, it made him slightly less vapid as a TV personality.

I don't think he is a bit vapid, his programmes are very interesting.
IMO of course.

Fair enough Callistemon, we can't all like the same things, or people.

Which man, what plum?Ladygracie.I'm guessing you mean Ben Fogle ?

I guess she doesn’t like him because he ‘talks posh’.

Callistemon Fri 05-Mar-21 15:55:28

He's not posh, he is accentless.

His father is Canadian - do Canadians do posh?

I agree Callistemon, but some people view accentless as posh these days, and therefore not worthy of having an opinion relevant to ‘real’ people.

Maybe that is why so many in the public eye seem to put on a fake Estuary English accent these days. Your opinion is valid if you’re a geezer!
