No I get more annoyed that they always stand in front of Wales whilst reading the UK forecast. Also hate their tendency to be more specific about what the weather on London and the SE will be than anywhere else.

No, I get annoyed when they turn sideways and it becomes apparent they are 8 months pregnant and are covering the whole of wales, and the west midlands with their bump.

Just asked DH as he always watches ITV news and weather. He said he doesn't mind as it means she sticks her boobs out Shock.
He has just told me he follows her on Twitter!

Oh, we have a weather boy on central news. He's at least 30, but he's definitely a boy.

He's very charming, and funny, but I wouldn't marry him.

Yes its an annoying. And looks so uncomfortable! Poor woman is going to end up with awful back problems.

AIBU to think that weather girls female weather reporters (?)
seem to always be pregnant. Or maybe its just more noticeable to people living in the west.

Someone my DH works with collects weather girl signed photos and has some kind of weird weather girl shrine!!!

They take the piss out of him DH says!

DH and I laugh at this freakily bendy lady every time she comes on, and she goes nearly right angled in the wrong direction

That's gotta hurt

She is very pretty though...very shiny hair

Yes! Dh shakes his head every time and warns she is going to end up with a curvature in her spine or worse! We call her bendy woman

I don't think the itv ones are meteorologists. They do seem to have a high incidence of pregnancy.

Alison dear this is MN not twitter. It's not cool to hash tag anywhere other than twitter.

I haven't noticed bendy weather girl/woman, but what is it with the way some of them speak?

I can't help the feeling that there's a Weather Presenter Elocution College somewhere - all those exaggerated words in the wrong place and all those exaggerated pauses in the middle ............. of what they're saying. Confused
