Mine would be Ben Fogle. I love his series BF New lives in the wild. He comes across as such a caring, compassionate and down to earth person. He’s a great listener and loves to hear real people’s life stories. He also looks like he gives great hugs!

Alan Carr! Love him so much!

We are all so different.
He really irritates me.
I’m sure he’s lovely but he does go on a bit.

What a pointless comment.

Thank you for your feedback.

If making a pointless comment was a sin here, this forum would be tumbleweed.

I could add that your commenting with your own comment when you felt mine was pointless is also pointless, but I wouldn’t be so rude.

@MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack hate to burst your bubble but my partner worked on a charity show in the West End with her once and she was absolutely vile to anyone working on it that wasn't a fellow 'name'. Treated everyone like shit on her shoe. My partner almost never has a bad word about anyone either.

Oh no!Shock

It’s about the degree of pointlessness! 😆

There are a few people on these lists who I have met several times or know a bit and I can just confirm they are great choices.

And no, I’m not saying who 😁

Ok
