Every time I see James Corden a red mist descends for no reason. In fact even the sound of his voice sets me off.

I feel similarly about Ed Sheeran and Tom Hanks.

I can't include Boris in this as there are definite reasons there!

Does anyone do this to you?

Piers Morgan he just has an internal hatred for women, it's so weird

AngelinaFibres · 17/12/2021 20:10

Anyone who goes all preachy preachy to ordinary mortals about anything. Self serving,virtue signalling twats with all the substance of a blob of snot.

Omg actually. Dr Kristian as well

Know it all, smug looking irritation he is.

My DH would love this thread because he detests James Corden for no reason. He can’t even watch The Gruffalo because Corden voices the mouse.

Mine is probably Emma Watson with her faux feminism.

Ed sheeran and stacey soloman. Cannot stand them, Why? I dont know.

ladygindiva · 17/12/2021 20:20

Tom Cruise. Even typing his name makes me feel angry. I've always hated him, right from his top gun days, even before it was obvious what a twunt he is.

It would be quicker to say the people I don't mind out of the ones on this thread.

Chris Packham.

Floella Benjamin. She was no Tony Hart, Nutkin or Brian Cant and couldn't sing like Derek Griffiths or enchant me with a voice like Johnny Morris, but she looked happy when I was 4 years old, so I guess she was nice enough. Considering I had a visceral hatred of that bloody Hamble doll at that point, thought Humpty was a fat green tosser compared to the lovely Dapple and Cockatoo and would have been quite happy for Keith Harris, Cuddles the Monkey and Bob Carol-Gees and his manky mutt all to be launched into the sun along with Ken Dodd and Professor Yaffle, she can't have been that bad.

I am also neutral/disinterested in the Queen (I'm sure most people would be simply marvellous if they could talk to people whilst photos of their grandchildren were propped up on a solid gold piano), the royal wives, their husbands and their cute (they're kids, of course they're cute) offspring.

Other than that, I'm at a 50:50 They're fine: Stick 'em in the compost heap with TV gardeners. Monty Don scrapes through as being posh and a bit drippy, so can't help it whilst Joe Swift can fuck off back to his 'tiny London Garden' that would likely cover all the houses down this street and the next and wax lyrical over plastic plants and hard landscaping (ie, fucktons of concrete).

Fuck, I'd forgotten Miranda Fucking Hart.

I'd hate Amanda Holden, but I don't like any of the shows she's in so I never see her.

My dislike of Gregg Wallace is nearing the point where I'll have to stop watching anything he's in.

APJ1 · 17/12/2021 20:38

Jared Leto. I don't think I've ever actually watched him in a film, it's just the non-smiling "I'm so cool and mysterious" way he always looks in photos.
