I love her and she just looked amazing in the red Moulin Rouge outfit earlier. Such a beautiful person.

Deathraystare · 14/08/2020 12:33

We certainly could do with more diversity in tv land - less of the bland blondes!

I haven't seen much of her on tv - I usually channel hop in the morning and would find her telling us about a tv competition. I liked what saw.

I was going to start a thread on this! Alison is fab and I was so pleased to see her on This Morning! Stuffing the chub rub underwear in her bra was hilarious! She's so real, warm and naturally funny!

I clicked on this thread thinking "surely this isn't a bashing thread - who could possibly be offended by Alison Hammond?!" I'm so glad it isn't!

Same, she's great Smile
Genuinely funny, a little bit bonkers (in a good way!) and just general sunshiney'ness and we all need a bit of that lol

sitckmansladylove · 14/08/2020 12:43

Ah that's lovely that she is like that in real life too. I remember years ago and she was doing a slot on supermarket uniform with her own son and just felt she totally would buy a supermarket uniform and anyone could relate to her. Some tv presenters you know they have nannies and not doing the graft while watching the pennies. Not sayimg alison does have to watch the pennies but she is just real. She was hilarious this morning.

LOVE her!!! She’s got such a big and warm personality

PoloNeckKnickers · 14/08/2020 12:45

I really love her too! I've been a fan ever since BB. She's a very positive role model for so many people. I mean, how many big, black, 40+ women work in TV presenting roles? And the best bit? She's a fellow Brummie.

coconuttyhead · 14/08/2020 12:47

Yes! was thinking this too earlier. She is so naturally likeable and funny, reminded me of how hilarious she was in Big Brother (I am old).

MrsHuntGeneNotJeremyObviously · 14/08/2020 12:48

I think she's fab too. Would like to see her and Rylan take over presenting full time from Phil and Holly.

Toddlerteaplease · 14/08/2020 12:48

'Sunshine personified' what a lovely way to describe someone. Alison is definitely that!

PunkMudda · 14/08/2020 12:49

@BirthdayCakes

I passionately loathe ITV - especially its 'presenters' - but she is lovely..

She's warm, sincere, funny, smart, and kind. The BBC needs to annex her somehow

Agree with this!
sitckmansladylove · 14/08/2020 12:50

Rylan is a lovely genuine person too

There’s nothing to dislike about her really, is there.
She’s full of fun vibrant and kind hearted.

PunkMudda · 14/08/2020 12:54

Agree about Rylan, too. He seems lovely. He and Alison would be a great pair of hosts.

mangomama91 · 14/08/2020 12:55

I absolutely LOVE Alison! I follow her on Instagram too. She's so down to earth and very genuine and just very clearly such a lovely person!
I'd love to go on a night out with her!

GellerYeller · 14/08/2020 12:56

Loving the love for Andi here, fond memories of his OZone specials touring with Take That. How much does Emma Forbes look like her mum now too! How sweet to see their reaction to seeing each other on Lorraine, they clearly have a lot of affection for each other.

sitckmansladylove · 14/08/2020 13:00

Caught a few moments of Lorraine and andy was so sweet in the clothes segment. I loved him as a kid. God haven't heard of Emma Forbes in years. Children's tv was so so good. Fraggle Rock. Button moon.. Ah the memories

PoloNeckKnickers · 14/08/2020 13:01

Yes! Rylan and Alison would be a dream team!

ThatsNotMyNameItsTooFluffy · 14/08/2020 13:03

My go-to video for a quick cheer-me-up

Pringlemonster · 14/08/2020 13:12

Utterly love her
She needs to be permanently on this morning

SunshineCake · 14/08/2020 13:24

I love her too but yes, everyone, please stop just putting peoples names in the thread title. Default is to think they have died.

misscockerspaniel · 14/08/2020 13:33

I love her. The time she was on This Morning and was presenting something live from somewhere in Italy and the police turned up because they didn't have a permit to film Grin Grin Grin

She is a natural and should be one of the show's main presenters.

sitckmansladylove · 14/08/2020 13:33

I have reported the Thread to change the title. I apologise I didn't realise that people would assume something had happened and don't want to cause worry or anything. Sorry.

Whenever she's on TV I always say to my family that I wish she was my mate...she seems so nice and good fun

nannymags · 14/08/2020 13:40

i dont watch this morning but she was delightful on celebs go dating. so so so authentic and likeable. would be nice to see her in a more serious and earnest light too
