Just remembered two more
Ramish Ranganathen and Shappi Kershandi... Always pop everywhere. Both irritating in the extreme!!

Teal99 · 09/09/2020 17:40

Phillip Schofield - no explanation necessary.
Kelle Bryan - Loose Women and ex Eternal singer. Moany, self obsessed, boring.
Piers Morgan and his surrendered tv wife Susanna Reid.

There are people I hate more - like Jeremy Clarkson - but for irritation I would have to say Gillian MCKeith always ranked pretty high. Sanctimonious and boorish. I watched her on Im a celebrity with absolute joy

I want to say Nihal Arthanayake on radio 5 who manages to be so annoying I don’t even have to be able to see him to want To punch him. He’s such an arselicking toady and he switches on a serious voice for serious subjects with all the sincerity of Alan Partridge

Nish Kumar.

AlbusSeverusMalfoy · 09/09/2020 18:17

The Speakmans
Stephen Mulhern
Jamie Oliver
Topsy and Tim's whole family
Waffle and the whole family

Fucking Justin.

MinnieJackson · 10/09/2020 06:58

@Elderflower14 I love Dr ranj. Is he really kind IRL too?
I fought against putting Stephen mulhern in because he used to be really nice, but that in for a penny show is beyond the pale!!

NorbertMeubles · 10/09/2020 07:00

Dan Wooten - he makes me want to throw my tv out the window

Elderflower14 · 10/09/2020 07:06

@MinnieJackson. He is an absolute sweetie.... He signed Happy Christmas the first time they met for a Makaton video for ds and the second time a health sign.... He found it very amusing that I was shopping and had to stop everything!

BathshebaAndGabriel · 10/09/2020 07:54

Ryan Tubridy.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it forever.... the man is a talentless twat.

He's the Cabinet Member who doesn't need a Spitting Image puppet, he can just turn up as himself.

JamieLeeCurtains · 10/09/2020 08:28

Oral B woman although I feel sorry for her because she universally annoys everyone and she was only reading a script trying to break into a career and has now probably ruined any chances of one happening.

I suppose she could star in a sit com specially written for her and other advert actors who'll never work again. One of those awful 'my whacky family' type comedies.

NAN: Shake and vac woman

MUM: Oral B healthy mouth woman

DAD: Anyone of those cunts from the Smart Life Insurance adverts

ANNOYING BUT ENDEARING NEIGHBOUR: June from the Sun Life Insurance who keeps popping in and banging on about death

MUM'S OVERBEARING BOSS: The man who does that strange advert for those underpants that apparently don't ride up where he slaps himself, although I think he might own the company and not necessarily be looking for a thespian career which is probably just as well really

I wrote that ^^ about Alok Sharma but the quote thing didn't work.

Although to be fair I think it might apply to Michael Gove as well.

Stacey 'ubiquitous' Dooley
Gary Lineker
Emily Maitliss
Rob Brydon
Polly Toynbee
Jack Whitehall

Tappering · 10/09/2020 08:40

Oral B woman is ludicrous. "But how do I keep my mouth healthy?" Er, google it?

Plenty of people named on here that I'm not keen on - Owen Jones, Kay Burley and Colleen Nolan for honourable mentions. Especially La Nolan, whose Wiki entry never fails to amuse me, with its heavily airbrushed decade-old picture that looks bugger all like the reality.

However my ultimate annoying person is Sarah Moore who presents Money for Nothing. She's insufferably irritating and smug, and talks through her clenched teeth all the time whilst skipping about ruining - sorry up-cycling - perfectly good furniture with chalk paint and so on.

Puppy72 · 10/09/2020 08:55

@Tappering ludicrous 😂.. How she bites into an apple is hilarious.

Puppy72 · 10/09/2020 08:57

Jimmy Carr and his ridiculous laugh 😂

Disappointedkoala · 10/09/2020 09:00

Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer - both separately and as a double act
Rachel Parris - especially when I learnt she was married to super twat Marcus Brigstock
Geoff Norcott

Imgladimnotyourchild · 10/09/2020 09:06

Holly Willoughby
Gemma Collins

TantricTwist · 10/09/2020 10:35

Pretty much everyone on here that's been mentioned already apart from Ant and Dec and BBC breakfast bunch I like all of them but can't stand watching the ITV lot in the morning, urgh they make my skin crawl (PM, SR and LK)
