To dislike the presenter on CBeebies Iconicles

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?

I suspect he is the secret love child of Ben Fogle & that mad bitch from Mighty Mites. YANBU.

Oh my god, that's the first time I've ever had a comment deleted. I would just like to point out that it was because I responded to the comments of poster before me, rather than said anything bad myself.

Anyway. The only Cbeebies presenter that annoys me is Katie. Fine on the cooking show but shouldn't have been promoted to normal hosting.

alessthandomesticgoddess · 27/02/2012 12:36

Katie pisses me off too. I hate it when she sings. I just want to turn her off. Muting her is not enough.

Sarah Jane's voice too. Eurgh.

So glad I'm not the only one harbouring a secret man crush on mr. Bloom! I think it's the accent :)

catwomanoriginal · 04/03/2012 14:59

Just who exactly is his program for everyone... have we forgotten that these presenters are all very good in 'children's eyes'! I like all the presenters but Katie does a brill job of being childish which is what the young children who are Cbeebies main audience!
As for nat I think he's lovely, I'm in my 30s and he's just the right age for me... I only look about 23 but that's not the point. The point is he does a good job on the program and my daughter loves it :) and I get to watch him! ;)
But mr bloom... iv never been a 'take that' fan so the 'mark' lookalike doesn't appeal to me at all.

"Nat" Yuk! Jolly glad I have no cbeebies age DCs anymore.
New lad with Hacker on CBBC is awful too.

Vix1991 · 05/03/2013 17:08

(not in any order)

I luffs anyone who keeps my DDs attention for long enough for me to have a bathroom break without 'uh oh' or 'Muuuuuuuum, DD2 has...'

Having said that I can't stand Katie or 'Nat'. Can just about tolerate Andy and Nina. Mister Maker sends DD1 off to sleep which can be useful at 1930...

GregBishopsBottomBitch · 05/03/2013 17:39

I quite like Andy.......and that guy from Horrible Histories, Ben i think his name is, hes just so lovely looking, also Mister Maker, tho kinda annoying, hes kinda cute.

midastouch · 05/03/2013 18:02

He's the same age as me, i would Grin

On the other hand i dont understand the mr bloom thing, yuck. Each to there own though i guess?!

Fraying · 05/03/2013 19:21

I actually like the Iconicles presenter. Obviously I'm so sleep deprived that I think his enthusiasm is real and completely miss the stage-school-itis. Now, if you'd been complaining about the pink squirrel . . .Hmm

(and I'm not just saying this in case thedadsworld is him!).

Satine5 · 05/03/2013 20:09

Another vote for Mr Bloom. I am relieved that I am not the only pervy one. He can tend to my garden any time!
