To get annoyed when people on tv

[LittleMissDonkeyonADustyRoad]

Don't wash their hands after going to the toilet

Don't wash their hands after touching raw chicken, especially when they just rub their hands on a towel

When they don't close the door after going in and out the house

And many more

Please tell me I'm not alone!

Perpen - no disagreement (because I know I'm right)

And when did Keifer Sutherland have a shit on 24? Was there a clock beeping away at him in the bog?

Car windows are always open. Both sides.

And when the actors get out of the car, they never put the windows up.

It's gritty Manchester and its pissing down rain. Put your windows up!

I know it's often about advertising but it annoys me when an actor goes up to the bar and orders 'a pint'. Of what ? And you can't just order a glass of wine without getting the third degree in most bars I've been into.

When a character (usually in a soap) says 'I have something I need to tell you' (usually a really Important Piece of Information) but they are never allowed to say it without the other character rambling about nothing in particular, not letting the 'tellee' get a word in edgeways until they change their mind about sharing the Important Piece of Information. If someone said that to me I'd be gagging to know what they wanted to say!

Sure, you are, Nancy . That's why those actresses, and others, appear in rated R films with bras on in bed and no body double.

Do we not have that here? I'd be a bit surprised to see uncovered boobs at teatime.

It irritates me they don't just film more imaginatively. Fine, just shoot heads or whatever, but don't expect me not to snigger at the woman wrapped in a sheet.

Who gets up after sex and makes a fry up, full stop?

Don't get me wrong, I'd love it, but it's not really part of most people's repertoire, is it? Snoring inelegantly, maybe.

Oh, and cooking in other people's kitchens when you've just met them.

Surely, you perch on a chair trying not to look too awkward? You don't randomly decide to rummage through someone else's fridge and sort out breakfast, do you?

They never log out of laptops either, just flip the screen shut - job done!

Doctors and nurses who don't do anything real doctors and nurses do in real life.

Funny how they wake up with make up perfectly applied...not a smidge of eyeliner on the pillowcases!

I always worry about absent babies too. Friends (after Rachael's baby was born) was particularly anxiety-inducing in this regard.

It always amuses (rather than annoys) me when characters, especially in police dramas, always manage to park their car right outside the place they want to be. They never spend 20 minutes driving around looking for a parking spot.

If a soap character is a doctor or nurse in a hospital then they always work on every department going.

Martin Platt (ex Corrie) was always popping up in: A&E, maternity, paediatrics, X Ray, geriatric....you name it and there he was.

And if a woman vomits you can bet your bottom dollar shes up the duff.Or in soapland they sit at the kitchen table and look at teh letter they got in teh post.Go upstairs to your bedroom fgs.Or if they take a pregnancy test tehy put the test in the bin in the kitchen.Someone sees it and takes it out.Pissy fingers eww.

YY to the mobile things

nothing else for it... The only way I can save this situation is to join forces with my sworn enemy. The one who's family and mine have been locked in a bitter and vicious battle for many years. It pains me but I have no choice.

I'll ring him. Here he is in my contacts, filed under "Ian"

I agree with all thats been said. Karl kennedy in neighbours treats every one of his neighbours at the hospital no matter what they are in for.

Yes, all the doctors are also surgeons able to operate on all parts of the body, for all people from paeds to geriatrics. And no one ever has to wait for pharmacy, cytogenics, all sort of things.

There's not a lot of liquid, either, blood, bodily fluid, vomit, urine, no faeces, even with diseases known to cause the runs. Women have babies and it's so . . . clean.

No one ever has to pay for parking, either.

Empty coffee cups!!!
Just because there's a lid on it, doesn't mean we can't tell you're throwing it about weightlessly!! Put bloody water in at least!

Oh yes and the laptop they have flipped the screen shut on never runs out of battery (unless necessary for a storyline) or opens on a compromising page.

Nobody ever does the "waddle of shame" to the toilet after having sex in TV land. You know, the "Christ let me make it to the toilet before all this bloody sperm drips down my....oh too late :(" shuffle. They never use condoms so it's gotta go somewhere, right?!

Or maybe that's proof my pelvic floors not what it used to be!

If the police go to anyone's workplace or home to ask some questions, they are always met with antagonism and anger, always. No one ever just sits down and answers the questions politely, even if they had nothing to do with the crime. In fact they usually carry on angrily waitressing/fixing a car/performing brain surgery with their backs turned to the cops.

People who have time to stop by at other people's house to discuss something in person before work. How strange would that be?

In reality tv shows when the presenter rings the door bell and the occupant answers surprised to see them. Like they hadn't already rehearsed it all day, have a team of film crew inside and outside the house and pre met to plan what they would discuss.
