Whilst it is obviously admirable that he is saving Britain from a load of fake goods, does he have to be so gleeful when people get nicked?

He is a bit annoying, yes, but when he brings people 'to task', he's going to feel like Sampson, isn't he? Plus it's what the TV programme directors will have asked him to do.

I really liked him on the one episode (vicar selling second-had cars) of 'Faking It' that was on Channel 4... I would love to have been on that programme.

BonnieBumble · 01/06/2012 11:38

I know someone who had dealings with him in real life. He took the side of the customer without having the full facts (customer was wrong) and his production team threw their weight around expecting everyone to bow down to them when the company in question hadn't done anything wrong.

Bonnie, I think all TV progs are like that, Watchdog phoned my OH for a response at 5pm on a Friday for a programme the following week or on Saturday (cannot remember the details). He was very pissed off, but he didn't return the call, not going to say anything a) without understanding the situation b) clearing it with his boss and c) it was Friday and he wanted to go home.

Not sure if you are BU or not, but basically because I like it when people who have ripped others off are doorstepped by Dom.

LadySybildeChocolate · 01/06/2012 11:44

I like Dom. He's so much better to watch then Lorain Spicer!

LadySybildeChocolate · 01/06/2012 11:45

Lorraine rather. Doh!

RuleBritannia · 01/06/2012 13:34

What a dreadful voice / accent he has though. A voice like that is a second hand car salesman - one to avoid, anyway!

Growlithe · 01/06/2012 15:34

Yes it's his tone of voice. I would love him to get caught doing something he shouldn't.

YANBU AT ALL!

He is an irritating little monkey man. His voice, his 'concerned' expressions. Top of my celeb hit list. I wish a rogue tarmaccer would tarmac him under a driveway.

squoosh · 01/06/2012 15:39

Lorraine Spicer also irritating, the tone of her voice is so droney. How did she get on the telly???

flynn80 · 01/06/2012 16:32

YA SO NBU, I cant watch him without cringing and pretending to copy his monkey voice, i find him so irritating, but i think its cos hes on everything so its overkill - there are other presenters you know!

lorne spicer also feel the same about her, hate the way she says something then stands there with her mouth open, bit like kirstie allsop does, id love to fill it with my fist!

ObviouslyOblivious · 01/06/2012 16:45

I recently found out he's a good friend of a friend. Still don't like him.

Sparklingbunting · 01/06/2012 16:48

I happened to see a consumer show this week that seemed to 'star' Gloria Hunniford, Julia Sommerville, and Angela Rippon. Or did I dream that?

Dominic Littlewood is v annoying, bring back That's Life I say. Grin

HerMajAnyFucker · 01/06/2012 18:13

ohhh, I thought it was just me that couldn't stand this short-arse, jumped-up, smug and irritating little man

bigjoeent · 01/06/2012 21:25

sqooosh, love the idea

Glitterknickaz · 01/06/2012 21:38

Three words.

Saints and scroungers.

Asshat.

midoriway · 01/06/2012 21:50

He gave me his mobile number once, never have I had a more underwhelming celebrity experience.

cherrypieplum · 02/06/2012 14:54

He's a knob. If I hear him say 'conshoomer' once more...

BupcakesandCunting · 02/06/2012 17:59

He is a supercilious little wankshit.

Mrsjay · 02/06/2012 18:06

I like him when he is on fake britain or the other programme he did , I cant stand him on the channel 5 show with melinda messanger they are just awful ,

oopsi · 02/06/2012 18:09
