There was a recent thread on men we (lusted after) thought were quite nice and spoke well.

Taking an opposite tack I wonder which women GN’s dislike? Recent threads have mentioned Susan Calman, Tess Daly and the ever-unpopular Amanda Holden.

For some reason I can’t fathom I’m not keen on Nikki Chapman and Julia Bradbury should just keep on walking, as far as I’m concerned. ?

Ooohhh, Disco Dancer, did you think you that joke about the Krankies all by yourself? How original of you!

This isn't a light-hearted thread, its miserable. I guess someone will now say something like "its only banter, lighten up a bit". As for the idea that mentioning men you don't like levels it up, are you aware that we live in the 21st Century now?

NanKate I agree? the level of self obsession is stunning!

I like the very versatile and clever Julie Walters. Underneath all that she's a genuine and likeable person.

My first best friend's mom was best friends with Julie when they were at school together.
Apparently she was a very naughty little girl! grin
I have noticed that she has done an awful lot of voice overs recently.

Can't say I dislike any female "celebrity" but I do find I can't listen to a presenter on local radio - she has to have the most irritating voice on radio! I'm sure she is a lovely person but I just have to switch her off!

NanKate Sun 25-Oct-20 07:53:24

Yes I accidentally started the second one Lully and now am writing on both!

LullyDully Sun 25-Oct-20 07:50:46

We now have two threads like this. confused

Here is a self-obsessed male who irritates me beyond words and that is Philip Schofield. I keep seeing him weeping and wailing in some other presenters arms since ‘coming out’.

He’s gay, so what. Get over it and make the most of your privileged life. I should think his wife is well shot of him.

He is no doubt penning a story of his life as we speak!

Me too Lucca tends to be the braindead who call her that .I hear the latest polls in England say she's way more popular than Johnston and people would certainly vote for her instead of who they have .

GagaJo Sat 24-Oct-20 21:33:22

Amanda Holden. Fatuous woman. Keira Knightly. Kate Winslet. Liz Hurley. Talentless and self obsessed.

Naga Munchetty. She ruins BBC Breakfast for me. Constantly trying to point score from Charlie Stayt who at times appears quite irritated by her.

Terri ?

I mention no names but the rich and famous who feel they need to tell us how we can lessen our meagre carbon footprints whilst all the time increasing theirs.

Famous people who constantly expose their offspring to the spotlight, with constant snippets along the lines of "so and so shares a of rare moment with child/dren doing something bog standard like eating toast" these insights are often about as rare as Trump's tweets.

Famous sisters women who buy their baby female children expensive shrunk down designer handbags costing thousands of dollars, shock I mean not even big enough for dummy and bunnysad

TrendyNannie6 Sat 24-Oct-20 20:35:33

I’m not a fan of Gemma Collins, Amanda Holden, Emily Atak, Carol Vorderman

Calendargirl Sat 24-Oct-20 20:32:30

I agree about the Bailey family, the dad just seems to shout, and the wife Aggie is fortunately not in much at the moment.

Calendargirl Sat 24-Oct-20 20:29:52

if that’s Gail from Coronation Street then she is a really bad actress

But after Aidan Connor had committed suicide, she gave a very moving monologue whilst looking out of her window at the street.

Lucca Sat 24-Oct-20 20:12:47

Sorry but I really get bored with nicola sturgeon/krankies jibe.

DiscoDancer1975 Sat 24-Oct-20 20:01:31

Ok, so, Stacey Dooley, or doolally as my husband calls her. The woman on the ‘ one show’, her voice comes from a face you want to slap! Nicola sturgeon, wasn’t she one of the Krankies? Oh, and Laura Kuenssberg.

Sharon ?

Although if we can have politicians there will be many!

Ha Ha! How right you are. grin

merlotgran Sat 24-Oct-20 19:41:55

apart from the usual target of course Meghan Markle

Thanks for reminding me. grin

Namsnanny Sat 24-Oct-20 19:38:16

Lucca ... I'm glad you said that about the Bailey family.

Kircubbin2000 ... How can you dislike lovely Mary Beard?

Oopsminty Sat 24-Oct-20 19:36:03

I love Stephen Fry, disgusting language or not

Rylan Clarke whatever his other name is If his hair gets any blacker and his teeth any whiter that’s all you ll see in the dark

That made me laugh. grin I saw him on the tele the other night and I thought the same thing.

Can we have a politician? If so, I can't stand Jess Phillips. I'm not a violent person. honest, but I could give her a smack. She always seems smug to me.

bluebirdwsm Sat 24-Oct-20 19:29:08

I can't watch Holly Willoughby and really dislike Jo Brand and especially Kaye Adams. I have to switch off.

Really don't like Stephen Fry...if you like him maybe you haven't heard his disgusting language as I have. Likewise Noel Fielding.

Many celebrities [self important, attention seeking] are annoying. To balance things there are many I do like ad have respect for....to many to mention here.

BlueBelle Sat 24-Oct-20 19:29:00

Oh an add on i don’t like the very smutty David Wallams He really makes my skin crawl and the other very popular chap who I don’t like at all is Robbie Williams, my daughter in law adores him Takes all sorts eh
