To find Robert Peston really irritating?

[SirB0bby]

He seems like a nice bloke but I find his weird intonation really irritating!!

And he was brilliant on Cunk on Britain........

[grin][grin][grin]@Cunk on Britain. Thanks for the reminder

He used to be number 1 on my list of people I would last like to sit next to at dinner (it is a long list, mostly of up themselves men)

But since he left the BBC he seems more human and I have quite warmed to him. Even bought his book.

He’s very attractive. YABVU!!

That man adooooooooores the sound of his own voice.

Me too, bless him.

And after I heard that, I did think his wife must have been the one who would remind him to go to the barber and it made me even sadder for him.

He has a new partner now.

I thought you were talking about a character on Corrie. I was going to agree but I don't know who this Robert Peston is.

I'll get me coat.

I love him - intelligent, sensitive, in touch with his emotions, humorous, great smile. My kind of man.

I love clever men.

Very mannered delivery but at least he has something of interest to say.

I love him
His mannerisms seem to come from a method of managing stuttering. I think.

His voice and over gesturing are enough to make me turn over every time

I definitely would

I quite like him. I follow him on fb and his analysis is very measured. He's quite forgiving of the quirks of the various politicians I think.

I love Peston & his way of speaking. He's trying very hard to break complicated things down to basic simple principles, which is why (I thought) he pauses, to give his listeners a chance to keep up. His style works perfectly for about how fast my brain can absorb the info and understand the implications.

Plus he's sincere, straightforward, and cute.

He seems pretty casual about all thetwittersnipes he gets about his appearance and vocal mannerisms

"Pretty much from the moment I became a broadcaster in February 2006 there have been reams written about whether I have a stammer (my delivery’s been described variously as “whale song”, “strangulated” and like “a dalek)."

The BBC even sent him off on a training course to 'iron out my eccenricities... it failed"

But he does NOT stammer, never has done

"I've been asked twice to review King's Speech, coz of media myth that I stammer. I'm starting to believe I must do, since the myth won't die"

Spidey so did I!

Do you know Robert Peston's hair has it's own twitter account?
