Lowri bloody turner. I just can't stand her. Her face, her voice, her opinions. Just get off my tv.

Who do you have an irrational or perfectly rational hatred for?

Jamie Oliver is also not averse to stretching the truth slightly for self promotion either.

When he pulled those turkey twizzlers out of his bag and all the Italian dinner ladies shrieked in horror, he said he was in an Italian elementary school where by law (quote Jamie's voiceover) all food served has to be organic.

The children were no way old enough to be in an elementary school, it was quite clearly a nursery school and there is no such law in existence (according to my contact at the Ministry of Education )

I emailed JO website but never got a reply. I was going to ask him on his webchat here but had HQ delete my question because I couldn't be arsed getting into a ruck with him.

Oh Christ, Macca. With his Grecian 2000 being wheeled out at every event.

Even dp who is not English just says at every public event now "Is macca coming to do the Hey Jude la la la thing?"

Agree with almost all of the people mentioned! Basically anyone on daytime telly during the week, or on itv on a saturday night!

My one is the BBC continuity announcer who ... stops his sentences ... in the wrong ... places, and sounds like he's about to cum in his pants. Delroy something, I believe his name is. I have to mimic his voice every time, much to my wife's chagrin.

Jamie Oliver, how could I forget Jamie and his incessant use of the words Dude and Mate.

Sleep404 · 11/06/2013 13:22

[whispers] I like Kirstie Allsop

sue52 · 11/06/2013 13:22

Andie Macdowell who is not worth it.
Cliff Richard
Denise Van Outen
They all make my teeth curl with irrational dislike.

Sometimesiwonder · 11/06/2013 13:23

Heartbroken my dd is a bit stagey too. But I'm not going to inflict her on anyone on primetime TV.

greeneyed · 11/06/2013 13:23

Katie Melua (vom)
Dom Littlewood
Emma Thompson
Ben Fogle
Anika Rice
Phil Jupitus

For starters...

I know this is practically treason, but I don't really like Stephen Fry.

That's punishable by prison, or being deported to Australia or something, isn't it?

limitedperiodonly · 11/06/2013 13:24

Oh, Boris Johnson, who's polluting my telly now.

And the entire Johnson family starting with Rachel and Stanley obviously but I imagine the two others whose names escape me are egregious fuckers with absolutely nothing to feel superior about as well.

treaclesoda · 11/06/2013 13:25

Katie Melua!! Katie Melua!! I'd forgotten about her, why did you have to remind me? You've stolen a bit of sunshine from my life.

Gruntfuttock · 11/06/2013 13:25

Quoting Trapenfold:- "My DD silly little cow. I mean pull the f***g chain and of course my knickers will be around your ankles in half an hour. Stick yours in the washing machine's all I ask. numb nuts"

I don't understand that post at all. Confused

Roomfor1more · 11/06/2013 13:26

Its the whole 'cock sparra mate/dude' that pisses me off with Jamie too. I thought he was from rural Essex not living beneath Bow Bells??

limitedperiodonly · 11/06/2013 13:27

Me too sometimesiwonder.

I quite like Gwyneth Paltrow, Martine McCutcheon and Keira Knightley. That confession might get me banned.

'egregious fuckers' Grin
Insult of the day.

Sleep404 · 11/06/2013 13:29

Treaclesoda Shock Shock Shock I think I need to sit down.

limitedperiodonly · 11/06/2013 13:32

I saw Amanda Holden on stage in Thoroughly Modern Millie and she was really good. And I liked The Grimleys.

Hatred is a lot easier when experience doesn't intrude.

Sometimesiwonder · 11/06/2013 13:32

Prince Edward and his greedy, ligging idiot of a wife. Just NO!

LadyBeagleEyes · 11/06/2013 13:32

I quite like Mylene Klass Blush

CambridgeBlue · 11/06/2013 13:35

I think I would find it easier to list the people in the public eye and in real life who don't piss me off.

I, on the other hand, am of course perfect with no annoying qualities .

LadyBeagleEyes you sound like a nice, gentle soul unlike me

TheBirdsFellDownToDingADong · 11/06/2013 13:38

Martine McCutcheon has always made me stabby. I don't even know why. I think she has a strange face, which I know is not a good enough reason.

Has Denise VO binned Lee Mead yet? Because I could take care of him.

Buddhagirl · 11/06/2013 13:47

Novak jokovich

limitedperiodonly · 11/06/2013 13:48

Martine McCutcheon hugged me. I normally wouldn't allow contact but it happened too quickly.

And it's Denise Van Cunten in this house, which I think adequately explains my position on her.
