What makes you reach (or run!) for the Off button?

That awful chavvy woman with the beehive hair do who says "are you gonna bingo?"

I hate ads featuring rich celebrities who pretend they dye their own hair! Of course they don’t grrrr. And any other ad featuring a celebrity I like who doesn’t need the money. It puts me off them, it’s a lack of integrity in my eyes. Daytime tv ads that just remind you that you’re closer to death. Finally, Homes Under The Hammer and all game shows. Better stop there I could go on all day!

Football!!!!!!!!!!!

I switch channel anytime an announcement tells me it's a reality show next. If I ever watch Love Island or stuff of that ilk I have told OH to shoot me. I cannot bear them with wannabee 'whacky' lame-brains playing up to the camera or Z list former celebs desperately attempting to rejuvenate their careers. Sorry if that sounds harsh but they set my teeth on edge.

I don't watch much day time television as I cannot stand most of the smug, loud presenters. Thank goodness for the recording facility and catch-up.

Eastenders. Mrs Brown & anything remotely to do with football will have me dashing for the Off button.
I like Corrie.
LOVE Rugby!!
Never miss The Archers. I have even found a way to listen to it on the beach in Greece on my phone the following morning.

Most of the above 'hates' also for me, except like the Archers and Pointless, and gone off Coronation Street, although as loyal to it for years.

That awful tune that starts the One Show - the show is often interesting but I can’t watch it!
Eastenders.theme
& while we’re here, can anyone explain why we have to have single finger, often single notes music for any documentary programme, especially those which deal with factories or industrial scenes? Soooo unnecessary!! I hate background music in general, but this in particular.

Why has no one mentioned "Benidorm"? I saw a few moments of it and hated it because it is utter tripe.
Mrs Brown's boys comes under the same category.
I also can't stand anything with Miriam Margoyles, Stephen Fry or Carol Vorderman in it.

Steve Wright on Radio 2.
Davina McCall,

Drives me insane when programmes have music playing almost constantly when I am trying to listen to what is being said, also fast camera-panning. All unnecessary.
Can't bear medical adverts and juvenile animated ones.
Dramas that are too violent and 'in your face', leaving nothing to the imagination. Bring back Doris Day ! : -)

Those bleep bleep meerkats! Outlived their novelty years ago.

So many!

There you go nannyxthree....if I’ve hotta watch a repeat it’s got to be Foyles War..,.whoever thought that programme up was having a brilliant day....closely followed by Lewis ( with dishy Lawrence Fox)...and I can rewatch Touch of Frost as well. Sometimes repeats are good...you settle back and think oh yes I think I remember this episode them immediately nod off. Great!

Oh and on another point ...I loathe anything that’s got that ghastly Simon Cowell attached to it....and anything classed as reality programme....I get enough reality in my life thanks!

John Inverdale “commentating” on any sport.

Any soap opera or trailer for same......gave up watching said trash years ago!

I am amazed that nobody so far as mentioned Naga Munchetty. I absolutely cannot abide her narcisstic personality and smugness. She absolutely loves herself, but I'm afraid I have to turn off morning BBC news when she is one of the presenters. I feel so sorry for her co-presenter whom ever that may be, especially Charlie.

Piers Morgan ...

The tune and the woman in that advert where she says "A little bit of wee won't stop me" Grr!!!

Soap shows ?

Just me then....

Amanda Holden
Robert Peston

Oh, and Eamonn Holmes

Another vote for Elaine Pages laugh. Hate it. Hate her choice of music, hate musicals. Can't get to the radio fast enough to switch to radio 4 in plenty of time for GQT.

Eastenders theme tune, have never watched it.
Used to watch Corrie, not now.
And the horrible Keith Lemon. Seems like we all mostly agree.

So-called 'reality' shows.

That man who says 'Haven't you done anything yet...why?' (PPI!!!) He's so condescending!!

Has anyone mentioned Eamon Holmes and his annoying wife?
Also can't abide Elaine Paige or any reality programme.
