AIBU?

AIBU to not get why Tess Daly pulls those faces

I mean is it a nervous thing because it just looks bizarre?


AIBU to just not get why nobody has told her to stop, am I alone on this?

I know the faces.

It's the gurns, isn't it?

I've always thought it's all just part of her 'professional northerner' act.

All that kind of ee by gum shit.

Tedious.

she is certainly very tedious

I am a "Northerner" and none of us act like that

Some people can't help it. I'm one of them. Nervous type. No amount of telling me will enable me to stop. But then I'm not a presenter on the telly.

But even if I was, why are people so fussy? What's wrong with a bit of gurning? Are you perfect?

No definitely not perfect mluddy but none of us are and this board would be pretty quiet if we didn't have opinions on anything.

She's expressive. Better than a "wooden" face.

She annoys the hell out of me ,and Brucie. I want Anton to present SCD.

I can't bear her, I've started recording it so I can just fast forward her and Bruce......dreadful pair.

Graham Norton to present it, he was born for it!

Graham Norton pulls some right faces though and no one minds at all.
She annoys me but I don't know why. I don't think it's the faces.

She just annoys me full stop. Apparently there is no love lost between her and DVO either. Wink

DVO?

I'm not a Tess Daly fan by any means, but the woman is mid-forties. She's doing something right, even if that something is gurning and surgery.

She had already ruined it for the John Lewis twee advert out. Shame because I like Paloma Faith. Sad

It's a bit music-hall for telly, isn't it.

And she's married to that eejit Vernon Kay. Can't be fun.

So it detracts from Brucie not being able to read his lines from the autocue?! Terrible. Both of them. But she certainly seems to be carrying him this season.

She bugs the crap out of me too. Think it's something to do with her OTT 'we're all such great bum chums...oh such fun!' shit.

Bet she snorts when she laughs too.
