She's too full on and is far too fond of herself. AIBU?

YANBU. At all.

MuttonCadet · 23/02/2014 19:47

Her speech impedient annoys me.

Selks · 23/02/2014 19:48

She has a speech impediment? I hadn't noticed.

YABU, leave Julia alone Grin

I luffs her.

Selks · 23/02/2014 19:49

Even more annoying is Kate Humble. She's worse even than Julia.

I'm in the luffs Julia camp.

User name not related, mind.

What's wrong with Kate Humble?

MalcolmTuckersMistress · 23/02/2014 20:11

She irritates the bajeysus out of me, but DH has the mega hots for her!

TunipTheUnconquerable · 23/02/2014 20:12

I love them both.

Sparklingbrook · 23/02/2014 20:12

YANBU. Plus she called her child Zephyr. She and Helen Skelton annoy me the most.

MrsCakesPremonition · 23/02/2014 20:14

I rather like female presenters who actually get out there and do stuff, rather than sitting on sofas talking about other people doing stuff.

AnyFuckerHQ · 23/02/2014 20:14

I like her

it's the plastic titted, peroxided, false nailed, tight frock-wearing, TOWIE-modelled ones that bug me

HenriettaMaria · 23/02/2014 20:14

Not a Julia fan, TBH. I would have liked those walking programmes so much more if almost anyone else had been presenting them.

OTOH, I quite like Kate Humble.

HenriettaMaria · 23/02/2014 20:16

Plus she called her child Zephyr.

So she did. Well, there's just another reason.

Gruntfuttock · 23/02/2014 20:16

I'm very easily irritated, but I've never found anything irritating about either Julia Bradbury or Kate Humble. I agree with AnyFuckerHQ it's the TOWIE types that I can't stand.

Sparrowlegs248 · 23/02/2014 20:18

DH hates her. Aplarently ' she tries to be all things to all people.....she's a twat'

MissMilbanke · 23/02/2014 20:19

Same here malcolm

I don't know what it is about Kate either but she gives me the rage.

I do quite like Michaela though... Why is that ?

Sparklingbrook · 23/02/2014 20:20

I have never seen TOWIE-but I know what you mean-plus the MIC lot are just as bad.

Women presenters I do like-

Susannah Reid
Davina McCall
Kate Silverton
Steph off BBC Breakfast News who does Business Report.

MissMilbanke · 23/02/2014 20:22

Oh a friend of a friend 'met' Julia out on a walk whilst she was filming and julia was terribly rude to her.

We boo and hiss when she comes on screen now !

Gruntfuttock · 23/02/2014 20:25

I've never seen TOWIE either, but I have seen people like Amy Childs on panel shows, wondered if she was a comedian doing a parody, and then Googled and discovered she was on TOWIE. People like her really do "give me the rage" but it's beyond me why anyone finds someone like Kate Humble annoying. Confused

HenriettaMaria · 23/02/2014 20:27

Davina used to annoy the hell out of me but when she was on WDYTYA I warmed to her. I quite like her these days.

She is still a bit loud, though.

Amandine29 · 23/02/2014 20:27

I have never really liked her but the last straw was when she wore that leather jumpsuit on countryfile. It looked awful and was completely inappropriate for the job. I don't get why the presenters aren't proper country types.

Sparklingbrook · 23/02/2014 20:29

YY Matt Baker grew up on a farm, and the lovely farmer bloke is, well, a farmer. Sara Cox would be the obvious choice re farming. Grin

ShatnersBassoon · 23/02/2014 20:32

She's harmless, but since hearing her on Countryfile say, while stood in a field watching a starling murmuration, "It's like watching in 3D!", I've thought she's a bit dim.
