I have never been so irritated by someone on the telly. Saw it for first time in ages today and she is so bloody patronising. Is it just me who doesn't see the appeal. DS age four and I 'disagreed' on her talent but I really feel she is talking down to him and the other children. I know I clearly need to get a life but keen to know am not the only one who wants to tell her and her fruity dance to eff off

No, she makes me feel all stabby.

'what does yours taste like (insert child's name here)?'

i'm dying for one of them to say 'shit'

I really like her. There's something a bit tomboy-ish about her I warm to.

Each to their own I guess.

worriedwretch · 07/08/2012 18:23

Some of the recipes are very odd.

A house made out of lentils for example.

pinkyp · 07/08/2012 18:23

I think she seems really false I bet she stands outside having a fag f-ing it behind the scences

Zwitterion · 07/08/2012 18:26

DH really fancies her. He recently saw an early episode when she sang about strawberries with her bloody guitar. Twice.

That put him off a bit but I'm sure he'd still be up for it.

Katie Price?

LilyCocoplatt · 07/08/2012 18:52

She used to annoy me but I have warmed to her a bit now, according to a friend who went to the cbeebies roadshow Katie was lovely with the kids, Justin on the other hand was a knob.

KenLeeeeeee · 07/08/2012 18:54

She makes my teeth itch. I get very sweary when she's on and have to turn off the telly.

MrsHelsBels74 · 07/08/2012 18:57

She drives me up the wall with her stupid songs, stupid faces/actions, just everything Angry

CaptainHetty · 07/08/2012 18:57

That fucking fruity dance...

Beamae · 07/08/2012 18:59

She's such a gurner. If I ever have to hear her read ginger and the kittens again I will smash the tv into tiny pieces.

BertieBotts · 07/08/2012 19:03

I like her too.

But I can also imagine her off her tits in a club somewhere with a fag hanging out of her mouth Grin

MrsHelsBels74 · 07/08/2012 19:07

I think I'd like her a whole lot more if she was photographed shitfaced, fag hanging out her mouth & tits out!

hotheels · 07/08/2012 19:13

It's that fake laugh that makes me want to take a baseball bat to her face turn the tv off.

BlackholesAndRevelations · 07/08/2012 19:14

I love her hair! Grin

plutocrap · 07/08/2012 21:09

Poor thing. She used to annoy me a bit because she was soooo bubbly, but I've come round to feeling protective about her when these threads come up.

Morph2 · 07/08/2012 21:11

She's on at butlins in september, unfortunately she starts from 10 Sept and we're going the week before so we'll miss her

RhinestoneCowgirl · 07/08/2012 21:13

YANBU, extremely irritating, and the daft songs on I can cook. Even my kids will choose something else to watch (3 and 6yrs).

FannyMcNee · 07/08/2012 21:20

It's the crinkly nose thing that gets me... She does it SO much it's like someone told her once that it's "cute" and she adopted it as her "thing".

Otherwise, though, she's OK.

Could be worse. Could be Mrs Mighty Mights.

Chubfuddler · 07/08/2012 21:21

Oh

Chubfuddler · 07/08/2012 21:25

Posting fail due to crying baby. Katie seems a good sort. Over earnest is pretty much the law for children's tv presenters. She's ok.

Bearcrumble · 07/08/2012 21:29

She's got a chin like a shovel and she can stick her pinchy parrot up her BLANK.

pickofthepops · 07/08/2012 21:51

Hmmm poor thing? She is taking more time slots on cbeebies so suspect she is raking it in. I just don't find her v sincere but maybe that is what goes down well. And I think she's quite smug. But hey. An sure she has many good points.
