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.

Lorraine Kelly for me too! Not a fan. I'm sure she's a nice person, I just don't like watching her on TV.

Also some sleb couples get on my wick a bit. Particularly Laura Whitmore and Ian Sterling,
Lisa Faulkner and John Torode.

I think it's an ITV thing for me! They seem to have a few people who I'm not a fan of

Michael Sheen
Duchess of Edinburgh

Benedict Comberbatch.
I’ve never been able to watch Anthea Turner, I think it’s because she just seems twee head girl with a nasty streak.

Henry Caville. No idea why. He's gorgeous and a good actor, I just can't stand him.

I like Henry Caville but I get the feeling he's getting very fed up with being a face and body rather than appreciated for his acting. He's speaking out a lot about it and I can see his point. He's very attractive but he is objectified.

@IwishIcouldfinishabook .he's trans his child.

Paul McCartney

Agreed, too self important. Bono has a similar feel.

KohlaParasaurus · 09/02/2024 20:44

David Tennant for me too. I can only assume that something about him reminds me of a long-forgotten horrible teacher at school or classmate at university.

Fearne Cotton really irritates me

Oooh, me too!! Everyone else I know seems to think hes brilliant but I cant stand him, to the extent that I can’t watch anything he is in.
same goes for Nicolas Cage.

Toottooot · 09/02/2024 20:47

Amanda Holden & Rochelle Wisemsn - anything they are on is turned right off.

The tacky Faiers sisters fae TOWIE - how they got all their spin offs I have no idea.

OMG Henry Cavill yes! He gives me the massive ick! I don't think he's a great actor though. He's like a plank of wood. Apparently his pick up line is ' Do you want to sleep with Superman?' ICK!

Edited
Show quote history

Ew, really? Now I know why I can't stand him!

Truebee · 09/02/2024 20:49

wow I hope none of those people mentioned read mumsnet.. not a nice thread.

Crackwillow · 09/02/2024 20:50

I cannot bear David Tennant either, Can' watch anything he's in.

Same! I used to like her until I saw her on the Ant and Dec Saturday night show a while back. Went right off her after that. Different person altogether when she didn't know she was being filmed!

Never liked David Tennant either until that lockdown show with Michael Sheen, warmed to him. Can’t look at or listen to Dermot O’Leary, he’s so insincere. Have an issue with Ant and Dec as well.

Dermott has his own script writer (David Badiells brother) it put me right off him and that's probably why he sounds insincere.

I don't really like Billie piper her whole demeanor annoys me.

Pancakedayisthebest · 09/02/2024 20:55

Bradley Walsh and his son on gladiators. The son has 0 charisma. They should have avoided the nepotism and hired someone who could do the job.

queenofthewild · 09/02/2024 20:55

Brad Pitt. A human handbag of a person. He's always accessorised beautifully with the woman he's with - blond floppy hair when he was with Gwyneth, caramel highlights with Jennifer, black leather with Angelina. Appears not to have an original idea in his head.

colouringindoors · 09/02/2024 20:55

David Walliams
Jimmy Carr

top the list for me, both give me the major creeps.

iwannacoolrider · 09/02/2024 20:56

Amanda Holden

Katie Price

Tom Cruise

Lorraine Kelly

All irritating for different reasons.
