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!?

So many, Holly and Phil, Naga Munchetty, that Brenda on Loose women constantly screeching. Davina oh my goodness, the worst. Michael McIntyre has become manic. Think I'll stop there.

Alex Jones with her squawky, grating voice. Cannot imagine how she was chosen to present a presenting show.

Most of the presenters on Countryfile, Matt Baker, Anita Rani, smug Adam Henson. DH nearly switches off when John Craven starts flogging the calendar, I don’t mind him, but think he would have been booted out years ago if he’d been a woman.

I like Tom Heap though, if that’s his name.

And any C list celebrities who turn up on any new game show or contest at the drop of a hat.

These are making me laugh. My DH often says to me 'You don't like anyone do you?'.

Lucy Worsley. Shame really as I’m interested in history, but her smugness and dressing up annoy me. I can read her books however.
Paxo, so bloody grim and humourless, but I like the programme. Bring back charming Bamber Gascoigne!
Joanna Lumley, pretty perfect and knows it.

Graham Norton!

Jeremy clarkson hosts 'Who wants to be a millionaire' currently. I never liked him but have changed my mind now,.

Jeremy Clarkson. Not seen or heard so much these days, thank goodness.

There are some I can't take to because of their voice . Not naming them. I think it would be unfair to say they irritate me because of how they talk.

I rather like Nish. The Mash Report is satire

I am another who can't be doing with Holly and Philip.

I used to rather like Philip when he presented with Ferne but not now.

Piers Morgan is another who is a massive irritant

I do love Idris though, tinafl!

For me it’s Nish Kumar, the comedian. Watched the Mash Report on BBC2 and cringed everytime he referred to “white people”. Imagine if a white comedian was on and said “black people” with a knowing glance.

Zoe Ball whenever she pops up on TV (Gogglebox, for instance). Always way too perky and trying far too hard to be relevant. And please, please, can someone stop her talking about her children? Allow them some privacy, for goodness’ sake!

Michael MacIntyre
Jimmy Carr
Alex Jones
All very annoying.

GardenerGran Sat 05-Dec-20 23:02:28

Yep, Philip Scofield for me too. Also the afore mentioned Alex Jones, used to like but voice irritates now and Naga Munchetty. Gary Lineker. Lots of not very funny comedians...

Grannynannywanny Sat 05-Dec-20 22:50:06

Danny Dyer gets my vote. I can’t bear him in the Wall and have to change channels.

By the time he says welcome to the “Waww” I’m reaching for the remote.

EllanVannin Sat 05-Dec-20 22:29:55

And another for Schofield.
Jimmy Carr and those deep-set eyes and horrible laugh----what a combination !

lemsip Sat 05-Dec-20 22:12:44

yes, phillip Schofield and Hollie Willoughby for me too!

LoobbyLoo Sat 05-Dec-20 22:11:17

Ryan Clark-Neal cinch advert, and the woman on Match.Com (having so much fun) quick get the sick bucket.

Dorsetcupcake61 Sat 05-Dec-20 22:05:44

Philip Schofield closely followed by holly Willoughby. Both smug and if they were as talented as they think they are they might be bearable!

cornishpatsy Sat 05-Dec-20 21:19:10

Another vote for Phillip Schofield and Hollie Willoughby.

I heard somebody refer to them as smug and squeak, it suits them.

Kate1949 Sat 05-Dec-20 21:17:46

And he's in so many things -This Morning, Dancing on Ice, The Cube, Five Gold Rings, Spend it well at Christmas, We Buy Any Car ad, a gin ad and various programmes lately flogging his book. Sorry for the rant. I'm sure he's very nice!

NanKate Sat 05-Dec-20 21:16:49

Another vote for Phillip Schofield.

Bathsheba Sat 05-Dec-20 21:12:21

Phillip Schofield for sure. I used to like him many years ago, but he's become ridiculous as he's got older, behaving like a silly little schoolgirl half the time. Idiot.

Coolgran65 Sat 05-Dec-20 21:04:17

I’ll do a double ...... Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield.
Can’t stand their childish behaviour.

Kate1949 Sat 05-Dec-20 20:56:50

Most of the above but particularly Phillip Schofield.

paddyanne Sat 05-Dec-20 20:26:51

Hollie Willoughby ,I cant stand grown women who act like wee girls
