Charlie Brooker engaged to Konnie Huq

[AnyFuleKno]

Simultaneously, wah! and 'eh?'

I think it is all a wind up. We will see the outcome on the next series of Screenwipe, you mark my words.

Didn't Konnie Huq go out with Richard Bacon for a time though? Or am I makign that up? So she's hardly wholesome is she? Blue Peter presenters have sex too, you know

"Former Blue Peter presenter Huq - the new host of The Xtra Factor - has been dating Brooker, 39, for several months"

Surely that's his credibility for screenwipe and the tv panel/quiz show screwed. Can't really call everyone involved in x-factor/BB/any other reality show morons and then marry one of them.

I don't get his appeal as a sex symbol at all. He's funny to read but to look at? He's got a funny, slightly shrill/high, voice as well.

Agree with BallonSlayer.

excusez moi

I love his columns and programmes, but I'm not sure I'd want to live with him. The relentless misanthropy that's so entertaining on the box/on the Guardian would get quite wearing day in day out, I reckon. Hope she is the resilient type!

But I mentioned Rushdie because he's famous for pulling hot chicks.

It's just wrong on so many levels.

Getting engaged is far too optimistic. Next thing he'll be pictured smiling and cuddling puppies...

MI...do you know many children's TV presenters ?

are you, in fact, John Leslie ?

Now that individual gives lie to the fact that Blue Peter presenters are all fluffy and wholesome (allegedly)

John Leslie, now there's someone I wouldn't want to wake up in the morning and have turned into. Yuk!

I work in a related field and have met a few AF - including the current Blue Peter presenters.

Including Andy A marineiguana? Ooooh! Now how anyone who'd worked with lovely Andy could end up with Charlie B (I'm a fan of his work, but I defo wouldn't) is beyond me.
OTOH Andy strikes me as being an over-enthusiastic early mornings and exercise type, which is a downside - at least with Charlie you could be guaranteed a reasonable approach to lie-ins and fry-ups.

Is it true Andi Peters is an absolute twat ?

Andy A v. lovely and gentlemanly.

Haven't met Andi P.

Here's the Screenwipe Konnie was on

A classic screenwipe! Konnie must have been friendly enough with Charlie to do it. "I'm 33 but I look 9".

I'm now in mourning. Good bye, fair Charlie.

OMG! - just imagine if they had children!!! I bet Charlie would be the best Dad in the world though. I have a feeling that underneath his misanthropic exterior there is a a very loving person. I bet he has a cute puppy at home.
