I’m going for Idris Elba advertising for TV Christmas programs on Sky this year : especially for the twelve films of Christmas
Every bloody break and I can’t keep going out to kitchen to make a cup of tea!?

Oh yes- i can't stand jeremy clarkson either- nor the previous presenter of "who wants to be a millionaire?" Chris Tarrant!- its a shame as i quite like the show- but can't bear to watch any more- I'd try go on it but i couldn't bear it!! ?

Nannan2 Sun 06-Dec-20 10:45:06

I agree on sarah milican- im no prude, but she's just too crude! (Ooh, that rhymes)!?Also yes, claudia winkleman- those adverts are naff! (And yes i do think it was her husband saying shes an annoying vacuum)?

Love Nish and his great side-kick, Rachel Parris. a good Leicester girl. She looks so polite girl next door, and comes out with the funniest and outrageous things- but spot on.

I agree with absolutely everyone! I used to keep my comments to mental ones so my family wouldn’t think I was a grumpy old boot but now I feel free, knowing it’s not just me! Yay!

Sparklefizz Sun 06-Dec-20 10:34:16

I've just read back through all the posts on this thread and agree with everyone. There seem to be loads of people I don't like. I'm clearly becoming cantankerous! confused

I enjoy Eastenders, but Danny Dyer? Has he got a crick in his neck? He always walks like he is the only one who matters!

Sparklefizz Sun 06-Dec-20 10:30:06

Philip Schofield - programmes, adverts, his books, his never-ending self-pity .... his smug simpering face is everywhere.

Anniebach Sun 06-Dec-20 10:16:16

That advert for those boxer shorts, yuck

Not a celebrity but may I add Kay Burley , her flapping, twirling hands so irritating.

Grannynannywanny Sun 06-Dec-20 09:54:11

Slightly off topic but I can’t bear that advert for men’s boxer shorts that appears most mornings.

A man standing there wearing them and extolling the virtues of the super glide panels to prevent chaffing etc.

They can be worn and returned if the customer is not satisfied. Presumably if a man still experiences chub rub he can pop them back in the post for a refund ?

insignificant insignificance

TerriBull Sun 06-Dec-20 09:42:36

Phil and Holly absolutely!

Scarlett Moffatt would be another, I think I heard her say once she had loads of academic qualifications, but I remember her from Google Box when her father, who came across as far more knowledgeable, explaining basic common knowledge facts, such as the Normal Conquest of England and her permanently furrowed brow trying to process anything that was outside what appeared to be the vast gaps in her general knowledge.

As irritating as the aforementioned all are, they pale into insignificant compared to Gemma Collins, how on earth did she manage to get herself propelled into the limelight, she has no discernible talent whatsoever and is completely obnoxious with it shock

eazybee Sun 06-Dec-20 09:32:00

I agree with the OP; that man drives me up the wall prancing about, and I didn't even realise it was Idris Elba.

Oldwoman70 Sun 06-Dec-20 09:27:29

Agree with most of the above but especially Graham Norton, Jeremy Clarkson and the truly awful Keith Lemmon!

harrigran Sun 06-Dec-20 09:26:32

I think you have covered every irritating person that I dislike, I refuse to call some of them personalities as they most certainly do not have a likeable personality.

Witzend Sun 06-Dec-20 09:19:35

Most of them TBH, which is why I give so many programmes a miss.

Whoever said Lucy Worsley, yes! For the same reasons.
And Alice Roberts - her voice irritates me, and all that footage of her walking around looking intelligently thoughtful...

Of course it goes without saying that I’m a fully paid up Grumpy Old Bag nowadays, and very easily irritated!

sodapop Sun 06-Dec-20 08:57:12

I'm with your husband Puzzler Lemmon makes me cringe as well.
I dislike the same people as most other posters, the same 'celebrities ' are over paid and over exposed on TV. I stopped watching This Morning a long time ago the behaviour of Willoughby and Schofield is so childish and irritating.

glammanana Sun 06-Dec-20 08:56:16

I certainly don't class her as a celebrity by any chance but I reach for the remote when anything with Gemma Collins in,she is so false and talentless.
Most of the above specially Keith Lemmon,such a waste of TV time.

DanniRae Sun 06-Dec-20 08:53:54

Danny Dyer - Gemma Collins - Jo Brand - Claudia Winkleman and her ridiculous fringe - Janet Street Porter - I am sure I will be back with some more!!

Liz46 Sun 06-Dec-20 08:51:45

Naga Munchetty. I turn the sound down when she is ‘interviewing’ someone. I don’t know how the politicians stay patient with her and Charlie. They are so rude and aggressive.

PamelaJ1 Sun 06-Dec-20 08:48:46

Can I nominate a ‘gang’?

The strictly team. I’ve never heard so much gushing as I heard last night. Even Craig seems to be joining in.

Puzzler61 Sun 06-Dec-20 08:47:32

DH cannot bear anything Keith Lemmon is in. He can’t find the remote quickly enough to switch over.

Habitat Sun 06-Dec-20 08:41:13

Naga Munchetty

Sparkling Sun 06-Dec-20 08:35:26

Oh the other one I switch off, Amanda Holden. The older she gets the tinier the dress and the more enhancements. It's almost as if it's unnatural now to get older. There are a few like Alison Steadman that don't shy away from it, that are interested in people and nature and not just how they look?

JuneRose Sun 06-Dec-20 08:27:36

All of the above!!

Davina McCall definitely...don't know why but she irritates me. Philip and Holly ...not helped by the way my husband says 'Oooh Hello Holly' in a suggestive voice every time she appears on tv.

Simpering Susanna Reid never getting a word in edgeways sitting next to the self satisfied, opinionated, pompous twit Piers Morgan with a soppy grin on her face.

Knittynatter Sun 06-Dec-20 08:26:52

As I was taught ‘if you can’t be nice, say nothing’ I’ll just be nice and say that I agree with most of the statements above ?
