Where did he get that suit ?

Rishi sunak always looks as if he is wearing a Norman Wisdom suit! Trousers too short, jacket too tight all he needs is the cap! We saw Paul Martin filming at Bletchley………no comment!

Agree.

Probably spelling it wrong, but Tomasz Schafernacke, the weatherman, looks pretty cool in his suits methinks!

When I saw this thread title my immediate thought was this.
A million miles away from impeccable Savile Row tailors such as Gieves and Hawkes or the impeccable Charlie Watts in Tommy Nutter

Graeme Hall (dogs behaving very badly) is another who looks as though he'd be struggling to breathe in his tight fitting waistcoats and jeans with jacket bursting at the seams.

Yes he does. He’s put on some timber since he was first on TV. The waistcoat he had on the other night looked like it had been specially made to cover his big belly.

I think these skinny suits/trousers are on the way out now. On a coach trip recently the driver wore skinny trousers but he had a fat belly that stuck out so he looked daft.

I love to see a man in a well fitting suit. Tom Jones wears some great ones in wonderful fabrics and David Bowie also looked great in a sharp suit. Rod Stewart’s suits are always well tailored although some are a bit gaudy.

Another presenter whose suit irritates me is Ewan Davies from Dragon's Den. He wears a tight jacket straining at a high button and an expanse of shirt below it to the top of low-slung skinny trousers which finish above the ankle. He doesn't look as bad lately on current affairs programmes.

I hear he is also into very intimate piercings. 😉

Can’t stand Paul Martin. He cannot read auto cues correctly. Doesn’t follow from one line to the next. However, this causes my husband and me some entertainment when watching Flog It .See if you notice next time. He roars with laughter at his own jokes. I also think he must be wearing a truss at the front of his jeans.

Well, at least he was wearing a suit. That other chap, David something wears brightly coloured jeans which are much too tight. As he's rather well-endowed, it's not an attractive look.

David Harper you mean. Yes, there’s no doubting which side he dresses! 😳

Usually Paul Martin looks good it has to be said.

How can you not like Paul Martin nina I think he’s a lovely chap He does like the flamboyant colourful outfits but who cares some look nice, some don’t

I just don’t get the adoration of Monty is Don find him a real turn off

Agree completely.

Don’t mind his suits but the blue jeans he wears are worrying- does he wear a truss!?

I know this is a very old thread, but saw Paul Martin in his oh so tight jeans recently, it was an old episode on tv and thought
OMG and tried hard not to look!😲

2016 !! I hadn’t noticed that. I doubt that blue suit still exists in reality but we still see it on the old Flog Its that are forever being flogged.

It was the same in the 1950's, we had the Teddy Boys, then the mods and rockers, then the mini skirts not forgetting the shoulder pads. A certain fashion doesn't last long but seems to always make a comeback many years down the line. Let them have fun and enjoy the way they dress, they are not harming anyone. I am now 81 years old and wish I had kept all my clothing from ther 50's ad 60's, just to look at them as they would have brought back so many memories, even though I can close my eyes and still see them in my minds eye.

Yes cathodexx

how did you find this thread from 8 years ago 2016.

tv presenters are 'dressed' for television. they are not there everyday clothes! that is across the board, all channels. They don't just turn up dressed as they appear on tv.

Men in suits are still interesting......

I’m more interested as to how someone finds a thread *from 2016*

I started to read this, then noticed minibags mentioned.
I met her once with her mum, saw the poster had a different name and realised how old the thread was!

Petra, I too wondered how people finds these threads, despite the useless search engine!

Most of these Flog It programmes are pretty old and the blue suit has been around for ages. Yes cathodexx his jeans bother me a bit too!
My dad always used to be impressed with the suits Morecambe and Wise wore and having watched replays at Xmas I can see what he meant. Beautifully cut.

We've been watching Kojak. Now he wears some splendid suits.....

I rather like Monty Don’s crumpled linen look. My OH occasionally buys clothes from the same outfitters Monty shops at., he owns what I call his Monty suit - navy cotton drill trousers with braces , collarless striped grandad shirt and baggy jacket.
