Some I love and will listen without ever turning off: Shaun Keaveney, Cerys Matthews, Craig Charles, Jeremy Vine
But some I absolutely cannot stand: Steve Wright, Mary Ann Hobbs, Chris Evans... and will run across rooms, vaulting children just to switch them off, screaming OH NO YOU DON'T!
Doesn't happen with tv presenters!
Anyone else?

Zoe Ball sucking air through her teeth is the only one that induces a physical reaction in me. It's not the way she speaks, what she says or the music she plays, it's just that noise.

The only time I had an extreme reaction was when I had a ons with the local nightclub dj!!

Cerys Matthews - I really can't bear the sound of her voice. She keeps popping up on R2 advertising her programme and I have to rush to turn it off.

Nick Grimshaw....I couldn't watch The X Factor the year he did it !!!!

I have to switch off Chris Evans’ kiddy feature where kids phone up to talk about something they’re going to do for the first time that day...like a dance class or a piano lesson or get on a plane or something shit like that. It’s so stilted, tedious and painful I can’t actually bear to listen to it.

Also any opening strains of any Robbie Williams song. As soon as I hear his voice I feel a flush of hatred and have to put a stop to it immediately.
