I quite like her when she's doing the continuity, not when she's cooking. Her punky jean turnups and boots scare me slightly though, bit skinhead innit

Saw her at a live thing last summer. Before then, I'd be annoyed by her. But she was brilliant - had a big group of kids (with quite a big age range) all eating out of her hand (not literally, obviously). Got them all involved in a re-telling of fairy tales, with songs, and another singing session with songs suggested by the kids that she accompanied. Now, I'm a fan!

YANBU - she's like nails scraping down the blackboard of my soul......

But DD loves her so

PIMSoclock · 08/10/2011 11:05

I want her apron.

Not because I can cook, you undrestand, but it would look lovely hanging in my kitchen Grin

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 08/10/2011 11:29

Actually the person I really cannot bear to watch, and turn the channel over when the programme comes on is Mister Maker. Just can't bear it.

YABU. She's an excellent children's entertainer - bright, friendly and approachable. She has a first-class degree, and runs storytelling workshops and a children's choir. No, I don't know her, but I think she's a good presenter. Of course she can seem OTT to us, but kids love the shows, don't they?

DreamsOfScream · 08/10/2011 11:31

Where you been? thought you must have name changed

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 08/10/2011 11:34

Thought no one had missed me.....

Been doing the RL thang....

Should be doing it now really but sucked back into MN....

ReindeerBollocks · 08/10/2011 11:34

I hate her show so YANBU

But I quite like her when she is presenting. Scrap that, I tolerate her better when she is presenting. I am not a fan of any of the CBeebies presenters.

Georgimama · 08/10/2011 11:35

I love her.

ebbandflow · 08/10/2011 11:40

When she is presenting Cbeebies she always laughs after every line-that is really annoying.

Fo0ffyShmooffer · 08/10/2011 11:57

She might be fantastic with lids I just don't think she comes across well. For some reason she seems a little like someone is keeping her there cooking at gunpoint and the children are an irritating addition.

ScaredTEECat · 08/10/2011 12:16

You mean this apron?

I think she is pretty over the top with her 'friendliness' on I Can Cook, but I can see why kids would like her.

DreamsOfScream · 08/10/2011 12:42

Ooo, you can buy it! doesn't look quite as bright as katys thoughHmm

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 08/10/2011 12:45

at "fantastic with lids".

Freudian typo if ever I saw one... :o

oldraver · 08/10/2011 14:30

I cringed when she did her 'rap'

GeraldineAubergine · 08/10/2011 15:19

'I am a triangle!' is going round in my head since seeing mr maker mentioned. Curses!
