There are a few who just really grate, including two off Loose Women, Andrea McClean, the way she say,s okayyyy when responding to someone's opinion. Sherrie Hewson is another, one minute acting all daft and dizzy then when talking about something close to her heart talking eloquently and intelligently. Lots of people in soaps are annoying too.

Alistair Appleton who presented 'Escape to the Country'. Looked like he had been cast from molten plastic complete with a vacuous expression and a walk like he had a pole stuffed up his................ back. Grrrr.

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 19/06/2015 16:42

Steve Coogan.
Brian Cox is starting to grate.
Think it is high time Jeremy Clarkson had a rest from tv unfortunately still won't tune into Top Gear because they've signed up Chris Evans.

I'm surprised there's only one of mention of Holly Willoughby - As dumb as the day is long.
Cheryl Cole or whatever she's calling herself these days - untallented, entitled little madam
Diane Abbott - Champagne socialite with highly dubious principals
Chris Evans - Untalented twit
Chris Moyles - As above
Peter Andre - You do not leave a woman when she has just had a miscarriage.
Fernando Alonso - Although his I'm better than anyone else attitude has seemed to mellow in recent years

Not sure why, but we've always called Claire Balding.. Claire Baldminge

andyourlittledogtoo · 19/06/2015 17:07

Yes, Brian Cox grates.

Also was quite keen on Idris Elba until I saw him in interview and realised he's a twat. Got the impression he spends a lot of time practicing facial expressions in the mirror...

BrumBabe · 19/06/2015 17:18

Cant stand Holly Willoughby and Keith Lemmon

To the poster who does not like Richard Osman (him off pointless) .. can't believe you said that ... he's my secret crush!

Mummyboo30 · 19/06/2015 17:23

I can't believe no-one has mentioned Richard Madeley (or Bitchard as we call him) he does my head in!
Also, TV impressionists that can't do impressions! I'm looking at you, John Culshaw, Alistair MacGowan and Rory Bremner!
And Justin Fletcher can do one, he really really irritates me.

In the spirit of balance, I like all the strictly presenters, and the judges on the voice. :)

Bitchard!!!!!!!! Hahahahaha!!!!

Philip Schofiled. Can't stand the smug wanker, having him as a host is usually a good indication that a programme is going to be shit.

Also:

Amanda Holden
Kay Burley
Carole Vorderman
Kym Marsh
