To dislike the presenter on CBeebies Iconicles

67 replies

According to the Cbeebies website he is meant to be hot totty to entice the Mummys and presumably then they ensure Iconicles is watched by their children....

Don't mind the show so much but the presenter [Nat?] is irritating. He is so stage school and you can just tell that he thinks a little too highly of himself. Not at all endearing or natural like the beloved Sid and Andy.

He is, imo, the male Katie of Cbeebies.

AIBU in my possibly irrational dislike of a children's tv presenter?

You are definitely not BU!
He is dreadful!
Do not even get me started on that jumper!

TheTenantOfWildfellHall · 07/10/2011 09:52

I don't mind his jumper.

(Just his face.)

TheTenantOfWildfellHall · 07/10/2011 09:53

Galaxy would that be Derek?

Jeez, just looking up whose the bloke from Iconicles and I see all this nasty bitching and griping! Don't you women have anything better to do than slag people off that you don't like or fancy?? Not that you even know these people in real life...they're just doing a job FGS!

About Nat (Gavin) I'd be a proud Dad if my son turned out like him.

No wonder the worlds such an unpleasant place at the mo, with all this nastiness towards others. Women like you make this world unpleasant for others to live in!

Bet you lot aren't oil paintings or perfect yourselves! Infact I do my best to AVOID women like you...Thank God for my wonderful, pleasant, caring, non judgemental, non bitchy and loving wife!

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/02/2012 10:49

Oh i think hes cute! But then Im only 21 so I see the appeal Grin

thedadsword · 26/02/2012 11:02

I honestly think these women (not u above) are just jealous...

fotheringhay · 26/02/2012 11:05

Excuse me, I happen to be both an oil painting and perfect!

(Actually I do find him quite cute, not one of the best programmes though)

thedadsword · 26/02/2012 12:41

Maybe I should have married u then! :)

In fact for my Liking Gavin Stenhouse is a really good looking 20 year old.

DontMakeAFuss01 · 26/02/2012 15:21

He looks about 12 but have just googled and he's only a year younger than me Shock I hope I don't look that young!

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/02/2012 17:47

He's 4 years older than me! He looks really good in the pics on google.

w3dnesday · 26/02/2012 17:53

Sorry, how old is absolutely everyone on Mumsnet DesperateHousewife21 and DontMakeAFuss01?

goodasgold · 26/02/2012 17:54

Ah the 'lusting after Mr Bloom' comment got deleted. Its been making me laugh all day.

I haven't seen Iconicles.

I really like Alex at the moment.

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/02/2012 17:54

21 :)

BertieBotts · 26/02/2012 18:00

I'm dying to know what all the deleted comments say Grin

Iconicles is a shit programme anyway. It's the kind of thing that you just know is going to look horribly dated in about five minutes.

Is he supposed to be Nat? I thought it was Matt Blush that's what DS calls the programme.

goodasgold · 27/02/2012 00:21

The deleted posts were a direct attack on mners 'lusting after Mr bloom' when we should be lusting after our own dh. And then a direct attack on Mr Bloom for being a peadophile. It wasn't nice. The 'lusting after' made me laugh. I thought perving over would have been more appropriate.

flyingspaghettimonster · 27/02/2012 02:30

We don't have TV channels here... so no idea who you mean, but we are addicted to horrible histories and my Godiva lust after that big nosed guy... Matt? Doesn't matter if he is a highway man, pacchacuti, a French nobleman or covered in dung... he makes my knees weak! :-)

flyingspaghettimonster · 27/02/2012 02:31

My Godiva was my God... my phone is censoring me. Although I would love to play lady Godiva if Matt was my horse...

alessthandomesticgoddess · 27/02/2012 03:53

Chris on Green Balloon Club. Fuck yes.

SubOptiMum · 27/02/2012 04:59

Ner ner insomnia11 and alessthandomesticgoddess I did same course as Chris from green balloon club at uni. Spent 4years drooling over him. We called him "red headed love" (not to his face obvs!). He is just as lovely in RL but always had a serious GF until recently I believe. not that i would have ever stood a chance He's my friend on FB :p think he also does stuff fir wildlife docs behind camera now.
