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.

Rita Ora
Tom Hiddlestone
Tom Holland
Stacey Dooley (actually this one is not such a mystery to me)
Stephen Bailey (comedian) – cannot bear him.
Emily Blunt
Don’t dislike him exactly, but Jude Law always seems like such a dweeb

Rita Ora yes! She seems obnoxious.. she's in the Lily Allen category.

I’ve barely even heard her talk at length, have just always had an instinctive dislike for her. Maybe she gives off a vibe I’ve never consciously noticed. And there’s the blackfishing.

AutumnCrow · 10/02/2024 00:45

Lulu.

I reckon she’s angling for the Legends slot at Glastonbury. If that happens I’m gonna take off and nuke the stage from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

Paddy McGuinness

LadyWiddiothethird · 10/02/2024 00:55

David Tennant.

Gregg Wallace.

Julie Graham.

BasiliskStare · 10/02/2024 01:06

@moderationincludingmoderation Ha ha - I have heard ( rumour only I do not know the man personally ) he is a bit creepy. If I had to shoot someone into space and never see them again Gregg Wallace would be my choice. No idea why he keeps a job just shouting times on Master Chef and repeating the other judges' comments . I could do that 😂I don't know why but he makes my skin crawl. ( Personal opinion only )

Hollyhobbi · 10/02/2024 01:11

Never liked Russell Brand. Surprised he's not been mentioned yet! Mr. Tumble. David Walliams. Woody Allen has always made my skin crawl.

Carouselfish · 10/02/2024 01:18

Agree with all these. David Tennant is just a typical sickly looking British drip, weasely.
I don't like Hannah Weatheringtonston or Waddington or something? She seems to overestimate herself.
Emma Watson is just an agonising actress.
To add someone new...Kristen Bell. I love a lot of what she's in but get the impression she's quite a hard person.

Carouselfish · 10/02/2024 01:20

Oh and Naga Munchetty. Purely due to seeing how bad her general knowledge was on a quiz show and how awkward she is interviewing people.

Februaryfeels · 10/02/2024 01:23

Katherine Ryan. No idea why I dislike her but I have to switch over whenever she appears

The Mabuse sisters. No idea what people find likeable about either of them

Yellowcakestand · 10/02/2024 01:26

Stephen Mulhern
Ben Sheppard
Arnie
Joanna Lumley

RogueFemale · 10/02/2024 01:33

Siobhán McSweeney on Pottery Throwdown

lonelywater · 10/02/2024 01:33

the whole last leg crowd and anyone who appears on it. Actually, scrub that-i know exactly why I don't like them-cunts, the lot of them.

Marchintospring · 10/02/2024 01:44

It ink I agree with everyone. It would be easier to say who I do like really…er…

(also admission time, I don’t mind Tom Cruise. I think he picks good/ interesting films to do which makes him less a weirdo in my book).

hothotheatbag · 10/02/2024 01:50

Laura witmore

I literally can't bear her face, voice, the "banter" and how she tried so hard to be like Caroline flack. I can't watch her.

Oh and Claudia winklman, I just want to pin her down and pin her fridge back!

MrsFinkelstein · 09/02/2024 21:03

Kylie Minogue.

Never have. Never will.

Finally, somebody said Kylie! I just don't see the point of her. Seems like they're looking for a new Vera Lynn as a national treasure and found it in Kylie.

Emma Watson. Can't stand her.

sashh · 10/02/2024 02:03

David Walliams
Tom Cruise
Christine Blakeley particularly when partnered with Adrian Chiles
Adrian Chiles - just stop moaning
Emma Watson - a piece of wood would act better
Lorraine Kelly

HawkersEast · 10/02/2024 02:11

Taylor Swift. She comes across as fake and insincere to me, just don't really see the hype

PutItInTheFuckitBucketAndGetOnWithYourDay · 10/02/2024 02:13

Paddy McGuinness makes me want to put my foot through my TV
James Corden, smug irritating fucker
Paulo Nutini, literally cannot bear watching him sing, he looks like a little old man with a bad case of piles
Tamsin Outhwaite, a face you'd like to slap
Rebel Wilson, as above
David Walliams makes me shudder
Alex Jones with her over the top accent. Yes we know you're Welsh. YACKYFUCKINGDAH!
Lorraine 'so so good' Kelly needs a drop kick in the fanny
Bendydick Clundersnatch gives me the willies
Oh and the little fella that plays Georges Dad in EE, looks like he'd breathe Tennents and fag fumes in your ear and tell you you're a good girl

I can sleep soundly now I've got that out of my system

StopItKevin · 10/02/2024 02:20

Mel Gibson, gives me stomach ache.

Joe Wicks, a diamond geezer, just want to put gaffa tape over his mouth.

Denise Welsh, please stop with the hands.

Emma Watson, needs a rocket up her arse.

Brad Pit, totally irrational just looks like my sibling.

Bono.

Gemma Collins needs a time limit on her.

Phillip Schofield, although the pains easing now.

The vicar in Coronation Street.

Mirabai · 10/02/2024 02:22

I can’t stand David Tennant, it’s not his fault that he’s too skinny to be attractive but he’s also really annoying. Anyone who’s tried watching that thing with him and Michael Sheen - I rest my case.

Bassetlover · 10/02/2024 02:23

Ryan Reynolds, his eyes are too close together.
Rosie Jones, don't know why just irritates me.

i know this whole thread is about an indescribable “ick”, and there’s often no real reason for it
still…..
having an accent isn’t “over the top”, lol. I’ve been told by colleagues in the pub that I’m putting on my Black Country accent, but a strong accent isn’t always a choice, I’ve never felt that Alex Jones is putting it on, she’s just not trying to mask it!

for my two pennies worth I don’t know why I don’t like Ant (from Ant and Dec) and no idea why I dislike Keeley Hawes, she’s a great actress but just turns me off. Pretty sure it’s my problem and not hers

Louise303 · 10/02/2024 02:36

Suranne Jones i saw her at champneys years ago it was just her expression maybe she was fed up of being approached.The other is Anna Maxwell Martin I took an instant disliking to her in dramas. Felt awful and changed my mind when I watched her on who do you think you are? she was lovely very down to earth.
