Did you know who Cat Deeley was before she joined This Morning?

When Cat Deeley became presenter of This Morning earlier this year I had not heard of her before, some of my friends are surprised that I did not know who she was. (We are all in our 40's by the way) I knew who Holly Willoughby was though.

Am I weird in never having heard of her before?

Patrick Kielty is cute! And Cat is too. He's not super handsome and she's not beautiful, but they are both quite attractive. They go well together, and neither one is punching above their weight!

How can you possibly say that unless you know them both very well? And even if you do know them closely, you still aren't in their heads, knowing and sharing their feelings.

Of course, she's been around for years.

So do you think that marriage is all about what potential spouses look like on the surface and nothing else comes into play at all?

I still haven't heard of her.
Wrong age probably.

Not at all, I think they're pretty evenly balanced tbh. She's pretty but not drop dead gorgeous. They were friends for years before they got together romantically. I think that's a far more sound basis for a marriage than looks!!

Maybe when they were younger but they look more evenly matched now.

I do not watch Breakfast TV and have never heard of her. Last time I saw it Selina Scott was presenting.

Everyone saying "what you're 40s and didn't watch smtv" were all watching it when they got home from raves right?

You were 20 something watching kids TV so there'd better be some excuse Grin

She also presented CDUK which was on straight afterwards - that wasn’t specifically a kids show (and no I was usually still at the rave or the after party at 11am, Time Team was my post-rave tv show).

I used to watch Cat and Edith Bowman on Hitlist UK on MTV in the late 90s.
