For me, it would the late Jimmy Seville, Cliff Richards, John Redwood, John Prescott, the Pope, Noel Edmonds and Ricky Gervais and Putin and all the Republican presidential candidates.

I agree with shysal Mccutheon really gets my goat in fact I always mute it.

Welcome Riverwalk. I am really enjoying this thread, glad you are too. You will find Gransnet funny, informative and supportive. But be warned - it is addictive!

I'm new here and don't know if there's a place to formally introduce myself but this thread made me laugh so thought I'd jump in .... seems that most of us dislike the same people, particularly Blair! smile

Kieth Lemon is the creepiest man on TV

Carol Vorderman especially when she blurts out the fake laugh

George W Bush... no explanation required

TOWIE crowd

George Osborne even before the budget

We are going off course for this thread Jeni. It needs an X-rated thread for student songs, accessible only by separate password.

(Whatsit can google references and find the rest of the words)

Down in the sewer .....

All the over-egoed competitors in The Apprentice (and Alan Sugar, of course).

Haven't you ever heard of the obscene reminisces of an aged terminal engineer?

shysal Wed 21-Mar-12 20:21:33

They are just examining an antique dildo.'Apparently they were available with steam power! The mind boggles!

shysal Wed 21-Mar-12 20:19:23

Just watching 'Four Rooms' on Channel 4. Jeffrey Salmon is so slimy!

Anagram Wed 21-Mar-12 19:33:14

Yes, nannachrissy, and another phoney accent to boot!

nanachrissy Wed 21-Mar-12 19:24:04

Bercow.. There's another smarmy smirker!

artygran Wed 21-Mar-12 19:22:33

Nigel Kennedy. I admire his huge talent, but can't stand the mockney accent and the "Let's see how much like a dosser (yes, that's with a D!) I can look".

Towerhouse39 Wed 21-Mar-12 19:17:33

I put Robert Magabe at the top of my list closely followed by Denis Skinner, Sally Bercow, Hugo Chavez, George Galloway, Naomi Campbell, Chantell [ I don't know if that's her real name ] and Julian Assange [ I wish he would just go away! ].

Annobel Wed 21-Mar-12 18:46:29

Don't see anything wrong with 'smarmily' as an adverb formed from 'smarmy'. And it sums him up perfectly - love the alliteration too, green.

Anagram Wed 21-Mar-12 18:26:44

I am a pedant of the highest order, Greenmossgiel, but "smirking smarmily" is just what D. O'Donnell does! Gah! shock

greenmossgiel Wed 21-Mar-12 18:24:13

Oh crikey, yes Annobel! He's awful.....! He smirks smarmily - (sorry, pedants!) while he's crooning those horrid songs! shock

Annobel Wed 21-Mar-12 18:19:01

Daniel O'Donnell. I find his voice very creepy and can't understand why he is supposed to appeal to women of a certain age.

kittylester Wed 21-Mar-12 17:35:59

I'm with you - on both points flowerfriend!

flowerfriend Wed 21-Mar-12 16:36:04

I always knew Englebert Humperdink was creepy but he sure has got a lot worse. And he is representing us in the Eurovision Song Contest. Saw him last night on the One Show. I like that Matt though.

GoldenGran Wed 21-Mar-12 08:59:12

Simon Cowell.

greenmossgiel Wed 21-Mar-12 08:58:01

And Gloria Hunniford...too sweet! ('ark at me! I could maybe do with being a bit sweeter!) grin
