slhilly from twitter so must be true Grin

HeroShrew · 28/01/2011 16:12

why must she squeak so? most unpleasant.

sunshineandbooks · 28/01/2011 16:13

It's the voice. I just watched Blatherskite's link with the sound down (I'm supposed to be working, at work Blush) and she didn't bother me at all. I actually think she's quite pretty! However, I find the pink monkey on zingzillas intensely annoying Angry

DD really loves Mighty Mites, and I like Sarah Jane in it - at least she is a bit more Fiesty than she is in Higgledy House.

But I agree about the eye make-up. Who told her it was a good look?

McHobbes · 28/01/2011 16:17

The make up is always kind of smudged about a bit as well....so she tends to look a bit grubby. Plus, that vile goggle eyed puppet she hangs out with that's scared to do anything...

It's all faintly creepy and strangely inappropriate somehow.

We met Mister Maker last year in a motorway service station with a girlfriend who most definitely was not SJH.

ttalloo · 28/01/2011 16:22

Is she really going out with Mr Maker?!

You all need to see this thread, which was reactivated today - someone makes a staunch defence of SJH on here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/telly_addicts/1023138-Sarah-Jane-Honeywell-Love-or-Loathe?pg=2

I always get a sense of desperation from her on Mighty Mites. Along the lines of 'what am I, a woman approaching 40, doing wearing a silly red and yellow costume, bouncing around enthusiastically with a Geordie dog puppet on children's television in an attempt to interest toddlers in dog handling?'.

She must look at Justin Fletcher and wonder where it all went wrong.

ChinaCup · 28/01/2011 16:22

I've said it before and I'll say it again: she looks like the kind of woman who strangles puppies.

Lol at Quenelle

mrsgordonfreeman · 28/01/2011 16:25

I forgave sjh today because there were PONIES on Mighty Mites.

Mr Maker on the other hand I would like to smother in polyester self adhesive pompoms and drive over him in the Maker Mobile. He's no Tony Hart.

LittleWhiteWolf · 28/01/2011 16:35

I forgave her today, too, because of the ponies.

I love Mr Maker. Ok so the stuff he makes is pretty basic and annoying, but I zone out watching his hands. Those are some nice hands.

mrsgordonfreeman · 28/01/2011 16:41

Noo, he's too manic. DD doesn't like the show anyway.

dontcallmepeanut · 28/01/2011 16:43

Just imagine SJ, Little Cook Small, Justin fletcher and Mr Maker in the same show... :o

Ds loves all of them

missmehalia · 28/01/2011 16:45

Yep, I'm with you, OP. Can't stand her. But I'm sure she's nice in RL.

dontcallmepeanut · 28/01/2011 16:48

Am I the only anti-Justin MN'er?

bloomingnora · 28/01/2011 16:48

Mr Maker cannot hold a pencil properly. I am gritting my teeth just thinking about it.

McHobbes · 28/01/2011 16:51

I'm not anti Justin per say, as I think he does a good job....but as for those among you dying to get your gums round his plums...good grief!! He is NOT attractive - he looks like a potato!

ThePosieParker · 28/01/2011 16:54

I think she does a good job, not my cup of tea but I'm not sure any of us are nice about any female on kids TV....

Oh, I am sooo glad it's not just me!

And I am starting to find Justin Fletcher VERY annoying.

bloomingnora · 28/01/2011 17:01

McHobbes - that is the most hideous mental picture ever.

midnightexpress · 28/01/2011 17:01

SJ appears to be turing into a small hamster. I reckon there is Botox at work. When she was younger and did the nose-wrinkling thing, it could, conceivably, have been considered cute. But now, with the fixed forehead, it's just a bit like watching a rabbit.

ThePosieParker · 28/01/2011 17:03

Fuck's sake everyone,. is a woman not allowed to age anymore? Should Sarah Jane apologise for not being ever youthful and retire, unlike Justin?

midnightexpress · 28/01/2011 17:04

She's not ageing v gracefully, is all Posie. IMHO.

ThePosieParker · 28/01/2011 17:05

What's gracefully? You mean like Justin, getting porky with a receding hairline?
