Are you a Robert Peston fan?

I am not. His style of delivery, for which he is famous of course, distracts from the content of what he is saying. When I do challenge myself to listen, I don't find that he is offering any greater insight than can be found in the first couple of paragraphs of a story on any of the new of the news websites or indeed was detailed in the news headlines 5 mins previously.

Does anyone rate him and can you advise me why please? He is obviously well-paid and does a number of BBC and independent gigs so must be considered a 'hot ticket' in senior boardrooms at the broadcasters... but his appeal is a total mystery to me.

Please enlighten me!

I like him, he has a good grasp of his subject, but his delivery is too much for me. Five mins max then he's got to go. Annoying, I'd like to hear more.

How dare he? Because she is his partner. She was whinging in The Times yesterday about other women fangirling him in front of her

It's up to her if she wants to speak about her relationship in interviews etc. Not fine for him to define her by that relationship in an actual news item on a mainstream channel where she is the subject of the item and he is not relevant.

Oh do give over.
