He reminds me of a garden gnome.

Frozenchipsareawful · 24/01/2015 17:38

Exactly. Read his book Raw. He is a humourless tit

stareatthetvscreen · 24/01/2015 17:41

ok so i've tried and failed to find a pic of him where he looks good.but he was hot in rl honestly.think...less gnomey,taller,slimmer,blonder.

we were surprised.the laydees there were loving him too so not just us.

wowfudge · 24/01/2015 17:44

You're all mad!

'i've tried and failed to find a pic of him where he looks good.'

Oh you don't say! Grin

squoosh · 24/01/2015 17:45

'less gnomey', love it.

I love James Martin.

DH is very understanding Grin

wowfudge · 24/01/2015 17:58

I googled pics of AWT (what was I thinking Confused). Now I'm thinking more gnomey, paunch and truly dreadful dress sense. Bright green shirt and multi coloured stripy tie anyone?

Dp says he is a lovely and genuine fella.
Dp is a sound and lighting engineer and said james martin was not awkward like some and also thanked all the behind the scenes staff

Frozenchipsareawful · 24/01/2015 18:11

That's nice to.hear.the ones that do.the work.probably never get a mention or thanks from their famous hosts.

Apologies for not having RTFT and for a Daily Fail link, but I can't be arsed to read seven pages about this nobber.

YANBU at all - I've never been able to stand the bloke after he did this very tacky and spiteful kiss and tell about his ex partner Barbara Broccoli (his 'sugar mummy' Hmm), years ago. Left a nasty taste in the mouth and made him look like a conceited, arrogant, disloyal little prick, imho.

You have let this eat you up for nearly seven years Crabby? Shock Grin

squoosh · 24/01/2015 18:31

wowfudge are you saying you voluntarily put the words Anthony Worral Thompson into Google images?

You're a brave woman!

wowfudge · 24/01/2015 18:32

I know! I have survived, but won't be doing that again. Lesson learnt.

wowfudge · 24/01/2015 18:34

You see, I was prepared to give the pp the benefit of the doubt and even admit I may have been wrong. No chance now!

NoCoatFurKnickers · 24/01/2015 18:34

DH used to say the same however he's since worked with him several times and tells me he's the loveliest bloke going.

FindoGask · 24/01/2015 18:35

gary rhodes has got a disconcertingly hot bod. Google image search "gary rhodes naked". So wrong!

squoosh · 24/01/2015 18:37

I am not falling for that one Findo.

FindoGask · 24/01/2015 18:39

I don't blame you.

wowfudge · 24/01/2015 18:39

Not even I would do that.

MassaAttack · 24/01/2015 18:47

I couldn't stop myself Blush

charlingx · 24/01/2015 18:53

Gary Rohodes naked? Anthony Worrall Thompson HOT?

I never thought my thread would end up like that haha! Wink

We stayed at a B&B a couple of years ago & met someone who'd met him whilst on holiday and apparently he was lovely and a bit of a flirt Grin
