Sarah Jayne off Mighty Mites and Katie off I Can fucking Cook

Am on the sofa with laryngitis so am allowing DS (3yrs) a telly day.

Not sure that my faculties are able to cope with twat Katie closely followed by that whiney voiced woman-child Sarah Jayne.

Would love to make them cage fight each other in suits made of sandpaper, the really coarse stuff.

I don't know, I agree about Sarah Jayne but there is something rather magnificent about the awfulness of Katie's songs.

#Mash them all together, mash mash mash# Grin

It's Katy's giggling I can't stand. After every comment one of the kids makes. Grrr.

cupcakesandbunting · 01/11/2010 11:05

Her songs appear to have a set "tune" and she has to try and cram different "lyrics" into it every day. Sometimes the words just don't fit in.

Today she asked the children helpers what their strawberries smelled like. Erm, lemons? ffs

Did you know that Katie is ony 23??!! Is it me or does she look more like 38?

And poor Sarah Jayne looks too raddled nowadays to be leaping around in a superhero outfit!

TheChamomileLawn · 01/11/2010 11:10

Shock at Katie being only 23!

cupcakesandbunting · 01/11/2010 11:10

Twenty three? She must have had everyone else's tough paper round.

Seriously only 23?? She needs a better haircut.

megonthemoon · 01/11/2010 11:13

I actually like Katie. But I do have double loathing for Sarah Jane and do not allow DS to watch it because she is so whiney (I Sky+ a few things in case she is on when I really really need some peace!)

bundlebelly · 01/11/2010 11:16

Feel quite sorry for SJ having to wear that hideous costume and have her hair in bunches. Her smile is looking very forced. I think she should defo call it a day with dignity!

Maisiethemorningsidecat · 01/11/2010 11:18

Both equally awful. I long for the day that Katie asks one of the children if their olive and rosemary ciabatta tastes "yummy", they spit it out and scream "that tastes boggin'"

Agree SJ is probably getting a leetle bit past all that leaping about - I fear for her pelvic floor every time she does a star jump.

cupcakesandbunting · 01/11/2010 11:22

SJ is one of those women that looks old but childlike at the same time, like Bonnie Langford or Susan Boyle.

Maisie I just laughed out loud at the thought of that!

My DD would be like "I caaaan't eeeeaaaat iiit! It tastes PINGY!" Pingy is her word for anything with more spice than a Walkers crisp!

Diziet · 01/11/2010 14:22

I can't be doing with Katie's giggles either.
She's really 23?? Lawks. Less slap, more moisturiser, love. Body Shop do a nice pomegranate one, I've been using it for a week or so, really good.
Don't know about SJ. Again, it's the too much slap thing, I'm thinking.

saffy85 · 01/11/2010 14:26

Hate them both. Sarah Jane thingy wears far too much make up, is there really any need for it?

MakemineaGandT · 01/11/2010 14:26

how funny - I was just about to start a thread about Katie from I can cook too......!
Is it just me or does she seem to find the children really irritating?! If they don't do what she says immediately you can see her itching to grab the stuff off them and snap "no, like this"!! And her songs are just awful.

cupcakesandbunting · 01/11/2010 14:30

Her food looks shit too. She should be forced to eat it all herself.

WanderingSheep · 01/11/2010 14:30

I don't mind Katy but I could happily strangle Sarah Jane!

Does Sarah Jane do the voice of Panzee in ZingZillas? Panzee has the same annoyingly whiny childish voice.

FindingGuysMojo · 01/11/2010 14:35

I love Katie & we only watch Cbeebies on the weekends & she's not been on for ages Sad

That MightyMites woman I cannot stand - seriously she makes me feel quite violent. I mean I know the BBC are probably trying really hard (these days) not to be ageist and sexist but really why draw the line right before her?

She's uber fake & crap at pretending & so smarmy. I have to leave the room. The idea behind the programme is great - the execution fails on ever level. Don't get me started on GoJoe FFS!!!

FindingGuysMojo · 01/11/2010 14:36

oh my god wanderingsheep her voice ......... arrrrgh!!!! combined with that inane grimace & pointy eye makeup........

ghoulishglendawhingesagain · 01/11/2010 14:38

I googled Sarah Jane last week[hblush] to see how old she is, as she looks so haggard these days. She is only 2 years older than meShock Ha ha she looks 10 years older than me anyday. And the voice is just painful.

Katie is mildly annoying, the songs are dire but she is tolerable. Food always seems like EYFS healthy eating stuff to me though.

headinhands · 01/11/2010 14:39

Katie makes me hate myself. She's the opposite of me in the kitchen, happy, efficient, clean, nurturing. She's so nauseatingly patronizing though, something I don't have the energy to be.

aDarkStarWithStrangeWays · 01/11/2010 14:40

DH loves Katie and Sarah Jane Hmm Lucky me!

backwardpossom · 01/11/2010 14:44

I can't fucking stand Sarah Jane - she's currently molesting my eyes and ears. Wonder if DS and his friend would notice a quick switch to Nickelodeon...

FreeTheGuidoOne · 01/11/2010 14:47

Katie's fine. Inoffensive, doesn't leap about too much, cooks food as opposed to the travesty that is the Big Cock, Little Cock offering.

Sarah bleeding Jane however. There are no words.

Beware though, last time we got together to despise her, her mate came on and yelled at us.

Have you seen her tattoo btw?
