Over exposed

I’m so sick of seeing certain people appearing on all channels all the time.
Fred sirieux for example....ok on First Dates but now he’s on so many òther things, at least two food programmes over egging his French accent.

Greg Wallace is another one.

Anyone else you’re sick of seeing ? (Yes I know there’s an off switch!)

Meanwhile, the machinations of how and why Gregg Wallace gets work of any description is a perennial mystery ?

Ahhh yes, Greg Wallace, former greengrocer who now judges michelin starred food, you couldn't make it up!

can't cope with him eating with his mouth open

My father was a greengrocer and very knowledgeable about the products he sold, including how to cook them. He’d have been well able to judge Michelin starred food

I like Bradley & Barney Walsh as well. They have a lovely relationship.

The JGM thing explains a lot FannyCornforth

It seems Schofield will do anything for money judging by some ads he appears in. He must be down to his last few million.

That Rylan chap gives me the creeps. Where did he come from? Why does he now seem to be in on everything?
I know he can't help it but there's something about his deep set small eyes I can't get past. I have to change channels.
Sorry Rylan if you're reading this.

Nonogran I believe that Rylan was a contestant on the X Factor (I don't watch it).
Personally I really like Rylan and I love his speaking voice. But then I've always had a soft spot for flamboyant chaps. I think that he's very good with people and seems genuine.
It's such a shame that he's had so much plastic surgery at such a young age.
Rylan was badly bullied as a child and I think that it the route of it. He must have been a camp little boy and he had ginger hair. I also think that he may have body dysmorphia. He is totally unrecognisable if you see photos of him when he was young.

Talking of over-exposed flamboyant chaps - what's happened to Louis Spence? Where did he go? ?

Thanks FC ?

Just found Rylan's photo as a kid, and he looks lovely

I’ve skimmed the responses. I don’t recognise most names. It seems binge watching Spiral, call my agent, all previous series of Line of Duty (for example) during lockdown has saved me from a fate worse than death

Sorry, I wasn't being rude about greengrocers!

Paddy McGuinness, he seems to be quite popular but I'm sorry, I can't stand him.

It’s not that I don’t like Bradley Walsh Sodapop I m just fed up with celebrities getting their children on TV why not let some other young people have a go and that goes for mother’s too Rylans mother gets in on the act now
Ant and Dec are like my fingernails scratching on glass but it’s not them but the over egging of them, when you see them popping up everywhere you get really fed up and think ‘oh no not them again’

Alex Scott is a she and played for England's women football team. I have a liking for her because she has pulled the rug out from under the male dominated sports pundits. She talks a lot of sense, football wise.

Who?

FannyCornforth Thu 08-Apr-21 19:49:26

Calendargirl perhaps you could Google him if you are that interested?
That's what I tend to do
