I don’t like David Tennant, can’t put my finger on why he just seems a bit creepy. I’m sure he’s not I just don’t like him.

Agree with many already mentioned:

James Corden
Jamie Oliver
Russell Brand
Russell Howard
Entire last leg panel
Catherine Ryan

and would like to add:

Karl Pilkington. Talentless, unfunny clingon.

I’ve no doubt there’s more that aren’t currently springing to mind 😂

Justleaveitblankthen · 10/02/2024 05:47

Oh yes, the ubiquitous Katherine Ryan.
Every bloody drama sees her popping in halfway through.
I half suspect there was only a Happy Valley 3 to give her a gig.

Same with Julie Hesmondalgh who plays herself in everything she does. Can't stand her or her accent - and I'm as northern as a chip butty so feel abit guilty for saying that 😂

Alan Carr, he just gets on my wick and is about as funny as the flu.

Emily Blunt. She has such an off vibe.

Benedicta123 · 10/02/2024 06:48

Bit surprised that so many find David Tennant creepy. I find him rather innocuous. Here's my list anyway.

Bradley Walsh (and his son). He just seems to be on every show despite being average at best and not being particularly funny, despite his best efforts.
Joel Dommett
Alan Carr. Similar reason to Bradley Walsh for me, he's just on too many shows.
Ant and Dec
Lorraine Kelly
James Corden
Jamie Oliver
Gary Lineker
Alison Hammond
Geri Halliwell. Never liked her when the Spice Girls were in their heyday. I like her less now.
Iain Stirling
Holly Willoughby
David Walliams
Sienna Miller
Michael Buble

BusyMummy001 · 10/02/2024 06:54

Keira Knightly! No idea why but everything about her irritates me so I can’t watch anything she’s in!

geoger · 10/02/2024 07:04

Paul Hollywood
Colleen Nolan
Sarah Jessica Parker
Keanu Reeves

WhatILoved · 10/02/2024 07:15

Lorraine Kelly is lovely. Back in the day when there used to be queues for taxis, she let me go ahead of her as I was travelling alone.

WhatILoved · 10/02/2024 07:20

This thread is interesting. A close relative of mine used to serve many of these people in a top London restaurant and said Keira Knightly was always lovely and down to earth.

motherofkevinnotperry · 10/02/2024 07:31

You're all reminding me of all the people I've blocked out because they make my teeth itch.

Mel C, makes me stabby. She gives me the rage. I just can't

Kira knightly I don't get why she's popular. She's not for me but I think she's probably a nice person..

Nick Knowles, there's something off with him. He seems a bit controlling and loves himself.

Russell Howard isn't funny

Keith Lemon is a character but the person who does him is apparently very shy and nice.

David Walliams, we don't see the real him again he plays a character for the public.

I like Claudia Winkleman and a few others mentioned but most of you aren't wrong!

LlynTegid · 10/02/2024 07:32

Many of the people quoted I think should not have been, because there are valid reasons not to like them. Those who are vain, for example.

Viviennemary · 10/02/2024 07:35

I have a huge list.

Ant and Dec
Kate Winslett
Lorraine kelly
Amanda Holden
Richard Osman (I used to really like him till he got his own show)
Holly Willoughby
J K Rowling
Fiona Bruce
That awful Carole the weather person
Colleen Nolan

motherofkevinnotperry · 10/02/2024 07:35

Gregg (double g) Wallace is a complete dick.

I know he's done commendable things but he makes my skin crawl.

lavendermouse · 10/02/2024 07:37

Taylor Swift. Sold her soul to big money I think. (Probably not a popular opinion here on mumsnet)
And agree with above Russell Howard is not funny at all.
And Frankie Boyle, he's just nasty.

colourfulchinadolls · 10/02/2024 07:40

Emma Watson
Greg Wallace 🤢

I forgot about Joe Wicks.

In his early days when he was just becoming famous, he stole my weight loss photos I’d posted on Instagram, and made a thank you post ‘from me’ to him, attributing my weight loss to his plan.

Fact was I’d never heard of him, hadn’t exercised and only lost weight because I was pretty much living off three Jaffa cakes and an apple a day.

When I commented on the asking why he’d stolen my pictures, he messaged me calling me an interfering cu*+ before blocking me. He removed my comment and kept the post up. Strange man.

Whhhhaaaat??? 😮

SmugglersHaunt · 10/02/2024 07:42

Also David Tennant. Can’t watch him.

And the female actor who played Doctor Who. Running around all the time with her mouth ajar like she’s trying to catch flies.
