Who I’ve reported.

I thought there was a bit much activity - even for pedants - here in pedanrs' corner so early in the morning.

Ahh!

Am I alone in being fed up with celebrities on tv going on holidays? people cruising, visiting exotic countries ect. why do we have to suffer watching these people having fun? why can't these channels spend money on more interesting programmes with EXPERTS?!

I’m sorry that you have to suffer like this, but, here’s an idea,
Why don’t you find something else to watch
I realise it’s a bit of a left field idea but it can be done through a device called a remote control

My solution - choose another channel, read a book or do something more interesting.

I dislike these intensely and totally agree with you Catlover
I m completely fed up with ‘celebrities’ full stop

I don't think I've ever watched a celeb travel programme, nor particularly noticed one when channel-hopping. (The ones I constantly trip over are food programmes full of meat, fish, expensive ingredients and occasional celebs)

Michael Palin and Joanna Lumley are terrific travel broadcasters of many years experience. However, I don't bother watching any of those other celebs travel shows. There are so many of them. Just because someone is a popular TV chef or minor social media 'star' doesn't mean I'm interested in their free holidays.

Actually I used to love Michael Palin's travel programmes (and I am rewatching his "Full Circle" at the moment!)
I also love all Joanna Lumley's travel programmes.
So, sorry I don't agree with you ........ and being a celeb doesn't make you vacuous in my opinion!

Bring back the experts. I recall excellent BBC programmes by Kenneth Clarke and Jacob Bronovski. We don't need vacuous celebs to front educational programmes.

Yes, and there are far too many of these programmes.

Because it’s cheap ‘entertainment’ most so called ‘celebs’ will rush to do this kind of show. Sadly there are plenty of people who enjoy reality shows.

I’m not one of them

And why is this under Pedants?

I don't like it either because I suffer from terrible envy! Why don't they let me do one of these travel programmes.
It's not fair. (stamping foot). (Grin) 😉
