Clodagh McKenna so smug now she’s married a rich old stuff shirt.

Clive Anderson. If I hear or see him on radio or TV, I immediately turn off or switch channels. No idea why, possibly his air of smugness.

He really showed himself up when he was an arsehole to the lovely Bee Gees and I’m glad they stood up and walked away from that ‘interview’.

There really was no need for it from Clive Anderson. I’ve always wondered what on earth possessed him.

Oh, Alan Titchmarsh is another I could never stand. Always seemed smug and self-important. I was vindicated when I witnessed him doing the whole “Do you know who I am?” thing in an airport once.

We saw AT in a queue at a hotel in Birmingham. He was absolutely not doing "do you know who i am"

Daniel Craig, only because of his pouty lip thing. Can’t take him seriously in anything now.

I don’t mind the knobs that come across as knobs. It’s the disingenuous ones I don’t warm to. Robin Williams playing cheery “humorous “ characters for example ( much better as the creepy guy in that film about photos). Or Tom “ all about me” Daily.
oTOH Amanda Holden is what you see on the tin.

You've got a point there - if you're a twat, just be one so we all know and can ignore you

Alex Jones. Can't stand her. Her squeaky irritating voice and manner of speaking and the way the fawns, very insincere. I will sprint across the house to change channel before I have to hear her because she makes me so irrationally angry. I won't watch One Show at all just because she's on it sometimes.

She has a very annoying habit of interrupting and speaking over guests.

Damon Albarn
Brian Cox, (the Physicist who was in D:Ream, not the actor)

Carol Vorderman really irritates me and always has, ever since her Countdown days, but even more so now.

Was good in the good wife though!

Alan Cumming should get a pass for Romy and Michele's High School Reunion alone. He might be a bit of unlikable git in real life but he must have a sense of humour about himself to have signed up for that dance scene.

Well he absolutely was when I saw him!

Alison Hammond - DH and I have decided that we will not be buying our new kitchen from Wren because of her yelling "The Great Wrenovation". I stopped watching Bake-Off because I couldn't stand her yelling.

She was a trooper when she rolled off the worktop though! Just got up and carried on!

TrentCrimmsflowinglocks · 06/07/2025 20:01

Joe Lycett. He comes across as massively insincere every time I see him on TV.

VickyEadieofThigh · 06/07/2025 20:01

Jamie feckin' Oliver. Him and his 'campaigns' and he treated the staff in his restaurants like shite.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 06/07/2025 19:43

Yes to this but the real guy who plays him - Leigh Francis just not funny!

That’s the one! Keith Lemon is the character but yes it’s the person who grates on me.

Itspeanutbutterjellytime1 · 06/07/2025 20:02

Phoebe Dynevor. THE smuggest-looking face.

Jameela Jamil.

Holly Willoughby- always found her so insincere.

Spencer and Vogue, particularly her fairy liquid ads and her entitled behaviour on planes.

Jacqueline Jossa.

Greta Thunburg.

Ant and Dec.

Tom and Giovanna Fletcher.

ChilledBeez · 06/07/2025 20:02

Alison Hammond. You cannot escape this woman.

TrentCrimmsflowinglocks · 06/07/2025 20:03

Yes to Jimmy Carr. I can't bear his laugh...

Oh thank you, I knew there were more than the two I mentioned.

Yes, Carol Vorderman. Instant channel changer.

MissNowt · 06/07/2025 20:03

Kay Burley - fortunately no longer on Sky News. Claudia Winkleman - that dreadful fringe 🙄. Count Arthur Strong (genius) described her as a spindly Cleopatra.

DiscoBob · 06/07/2025 20:03

I really strongly dislike Geri Halliwell. But I don't think it's irrational as she's such a liar and has zero talent.

I don't like that guy from Taskmaster, with the dodgy teeth. Something Horn? They gave him a whole show which sucks really badly.

Oh yeah, the other Horne. The one with James Corden. Matt. From Gavin and Stacey. I just think he looks like he'd be a dick. But who wouldn't hanging round with Corden for twenty years.

Gingernaut · 06/07/2025 20:03

Leigh Francis aka Keith Lemon and Bo Selecta! in any way shape or form - Just beyond irritating

Guz Khan's Man Like Mobeen character - the entire series is as funny as toothache

Claudia Winkelman - Posh one note wonder who has inexplicably fronted so many shows, including standing in on The Graham Norton Show

Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders - Once funny, but now just self indulgent

Stacey Solomon - My God! Irritating beyond all measure, on tv in derivative drivel that seem to be spin offs from other shows and one of those who appears to be famous for being famous

Cat Deeley - Bouncy fun, fluffy inconsequential identikit blonde

😄 youre not alone on this one, nor irrational

I do feel sorry for her though, that 'where is lorraine' twitter account cemented her downfall (i think I'll be alone on that one though)

sorry i iknow this is light hearted but why

she literally had school holidays off when she has an adult daughter-if she th8inks thats ok then tough

saltinesandcoffeecups · 06/07/2025 20:04

Reese Witherspoon- seriously once you notice her chin it’s all you can see.

Carol Vorderman
Jeremy Clarkson

Tom Daley. He’s a sanctimonious attention seeker and I can’t stand him. I wish he would lose the stupid knitting needles, it’s not the big deal he thinks it is. I’ve been knitting for years, so what.
