Irrational hatred of certain TV presenters.

Mine is the chirpy Northern Irish sports presenter on BBC Breakfast. She spouts the England biased sports news with such glee. Another is the man who presents the Click section (tech) section of the same programme. Lastly Dr Sarah Jarvis - smug TV medic.
Can you tell I'm fed up of social distancing already.
Who irritates the Bejeezus out of you?

Rochelle Humes for me . I don’t know why? Maybe her voice.

Tony Robinson. Pity really as I'm interested in the programmes he does.

Griff Rhys Jones. When he presented It's All Right on the Night I'd mute his waffle.

With me I think it's a voice thing.

Fiona Bruce. She’s ruined Antiques Roadshow for me Angry

Susan Calman.
Why? Why is she suddenly on everything?
I can't watch Great British Menu now.

That pair of Fanny's on Sunday brunch, especially the tim One.

Rylan Clark-Neal. And he seems to be on everything at the moment!

Oh I love ryland

But can’t stand Amanda Holden
Won’t listen to heart fm now because of her either

Does Emily Maitlis count?

derxa · 29/03/2020 08:37

Does Emily Maitlis count? Of course she does. She might be a brilliant presenter but that doesn't stop her from annoying the fuck out of you.

Not a presenter but I have to switch bbc breakfast off when the Green Goddess comes on. She drives me nuts!

Robert Peston. He takes so many breaths and pauses while pontificating, by the time he gets to the end of his statement you haven't a clue what he's on about. Prick.

Piers Morgan

Many years ago I worked with Stephen Mulhern @SimonJT, he's actually a really lovely fella, wicked sense of humour and loves a nightclub. Was lovely to everyone no matter what role you had where we worked.

June Sarpong, though thankfully she's not on the tv so much these days. And Amanda Holden. Like a pp I too have stopped listening to heart radio because of her ability to pluck my last nerve like a banjo string.

Pulppixies · 29/03/2020 08:55

David Attenborough. Can’t stand him

Bluejuicyapple · 29/03/2020 08:56

Amanda Holden, davina McCall and not a dan of holly.

derxa · 29/03/2020 08:57

David Attenborough. Can’t stand him I can't stand him either Pulppixies but on MN he's next to God.

Holly Willoughby and her squeaky look at me I’m so funny gob Grin

missyB1 · 29/03/2020 09:00

Phillip Schofield oh and Holly!
That TV Doctor Christian from embarrassing bodies - can’t bear him!
David Tennant - completely one dimensional actor and seriously irritating voice.

SimonJT · 29/03/2020 09:02

@BiBiBirdie I met him once and he made a very sexually inappropriate comment about my then boyfriend, it enabled my hatred to grow even more! It also turned out he wasn’t invited to the event and he was thrown out Smile
