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?

Oh how I hate Rachel Allen! Blandness personified, bet you could slap her round the face with a bag of mince and she'd still give you that gormless smile. And her voice!!!

Which reminds me, that awful, softly-spoken, jolly midwife that wanted to put on whale music during some poor woman's labour on OBEM - after seeing her I lived in fear that I would encounter some such limp rag during my labour. She looks like she has sweaty palms, barf.

DorothyMantooth · 13/06/2013 15:11

I feel a bit bad about that midwife actually as she is a real person but she really was a nightmare.

Dackyduddles · 13/06/2013 15:37

Yasmin wotsit who writes in evening standard. She spits bile.
Also that Amanda bird who writes in DM. Actually anyone who works for DM. Really can't stick that paper.

The song 'Dancing in the Moonlight' by Toploader. I will sprint across a room to turn it off when it comes on the radio.

satsumasunrise · 13/06/2013 15:57

Just realised this is all about people, in which case I nominate Anthony Cotton.

dubstarr73 · 13/06/2013 16:19

Wouldnt surprise me Bumpotato people who are the peoples champion are almost to sweet to be wholesome.

DorothyMantooth · 13/06/2013 16:24

Kelvin McKenzie! Richard Littlejohn! And, lest I forget, that po-faced, self-righteous embarrassment to politics, Louise Mensch (or Louise Minge, as she's known in our house)!

LoopyLooplaHoop · 13/06/2013 16:35

Gene Wilder
Mick Hucknell
David Gray
Bono
That dick from the radio who says "off of" instead of 'from'
Phil Scholfield
The entire Apprentice crew
Call me Dave (rational)
Gove (obviously)
Piers Morgan
Prince Philip
Justin Fletcher

There must be some women too...

Heather Small
Marine Le Pen
Katie Price
Apprentice women (all apart from the younger one who works for Alan, but including Margaret)

Heartbrokenmum73 · 13/06/2013 16:47

No, Loopy, NOT David Gray! I will accept the hatred for every single other person on this thread, but I've seen David Gray in concert four times and he was fecking amazing every single time. Wish the same could be said for the majority of the audience at each of his gigs - seen more movement at a morgue...

I had a distrubing dream about Kelvin McKenzie last night. He put his arm round me and I put my head on his shoulder and then I woke up. Yes, I was pouring with sweat.

Don't know where that dream came from. I've never dreamt about him before and I hope never to do so again.

I also had one about Alistair Campbell which went a bit further. That wasn't quite so upsetting. He didn't shout at me and tell me I was doing sex wrong, which was a bit of a surprise.

limitedperiodonly · 13/06/2013 17:00

Please God, if I ever dream about Richard Littlejohn, let me die in my sleep without knowing anything about it.

limitedperiodonly · 13/06/2013 17:08

I think I know where the McKenzie dream came from. I was watching The Daily Politics the other day and there was a clip of a previous interview between McKenzie, Andrew Neil and a frothing loon who was ranting about the EU or immigration or something.

McKenzie came over as the soul of reason by contrast.

I'm going to fucking dream about Brillo tonight, aren't I?

mum2jakie · 13/06/2013 17:17

Adrian Chiles - he has all the charisma and personality of a stool (in both senses of the world.) It annoys me that anybody would think he is somebody that anybody would want to watch on TV - at any time of the day but especially in the morning.

The world's most boring man!

mum2jakie · 13/06/2013 17:17

LOL at previous anybody, somebody, anybody...!

loopy I used to work at a magazine where we had a kind of Private Eye joke where they keep finding excuses to print <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=www.private-eye.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/andrew-neil.jpg&imgrefurl=www.private-eye.co.uk/blog/?m%3D201101&h=228&w=250&sz=8&tbnid=onrMEtSjTW72pM:&tbnh=90&tbnw=99&zoom=1&usg=__vDhfDHEHKwTTnKvblwtFf0Xgo7Y=&docid=bye7q0LiqeA-jM&sa=X&ei=w--5UfOSB4_Z0QX9xYHoDA&ved=0CDEQ9QEwAA&dur=184" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this pic of Andrew Neil

Ours was Mick Hucknall on holiday wearing ball-skimming black satin 80s footballer shorts and a t-shirt with the logo Just Do It.

It's probably a blessing that I've searched online countless times and can't find it.

DorothyMantooth · 13/06/2013 17:35

Feel like I need to scrub the inside of my skull now, thanks limited!

limitedperiodonly · 13/06/2013 17:42

It would feature in a hilarious Littlejohn column where Jack Regan would burst through the door half-way through and tell me to get me trousers on cos I was nicked.

SassySpice · 13/06/2013 17:47

Mel C - she always seems so desperate and overly grateful

Peter Andre - now there's someone I could do VERY BAD THINGS to.
Fucking human sausage.

gaggiagirl · 13/06/2013 18:06

Linda twatting barker! Fucking irritating head on stick that she is.
If I see or hear her I might just rage myself into an early grave

limitedperiodonly · 13/06/2013 18:08

head on stick

Don't tempt me with your Game of Thrones fantasies.

limitedperiodonly · 13/06/2013 18:09

Fucking human sausage.

And this

xigris · 13/06/2013 18:13

satsuma I fucking hate that song too. Dancing in the Moonlight my arse. It makes my ears bleed. Also can't stand Come on Eileen and Celebrate (Good Times). Think I've gone off the subject somehow Grin

limitedperiodonly · 13/06/2013 18:20

Try to think of this one xigris

LeastWorstOption · 13/06/2013 18:24

Jonathan Ross. I have no more to add.

gaggiagirl · 13/06/2013 18:34

Has anyone mentioned Liz Jones yet or is that a rational one?
