Carole Malone- is this woman actually capable of talking without shouting? Why on earth do they keep inviting her back to be a panellist on the show?

They need to provide a token right-wing reactionary on these panels for 'balance'.

She's abhorrent. I had to switch off the 'theming' talking about migrants.

movingadviceneeded · 21/07/2021 09:58

Used to have to deal with her regularly through work. She is absolutely hideous. She throws huge strops in public, name calls, threatens (in that snarling, narrowed eyes, spitting kind of way) and is generally one of the most unpleasant people I've ever met.

YABU for voluntarily watching professional shit stirrer Jeremy Vine 🤣

They’ve got some really opposing guests today.

@DobbyTheHouseElk

They’ve got some really opposing guests today.
Isn't it always the same format though? A lefty and a right winger. Lefty backs lockdowns/restrictions/the science and slags off Boris/the government. Righty is anti-lockdown, anti-restriction, anti-science and pro-freedom but still broadly backs the government.

I got tired of watching this play out day in, day out. At least for a while it made a change from the same dynamic day in day out, year in year out over Brexit.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 21/07/2021 11:11

Yes it is, but these two are great. My favourite ones.

At least it isn’t Dr Gloom and Doom on as it was throughout the lockdowns.

I wouldn’t want to be her patient, she’s so disrespectful towards them.

Today’s episode was quite fiery. Carole spouting out half truths

Jeremy can't talk without shouting either.

I have delt with her in real life several times🤐 she is quite... Em! ..lovely to me! Blush

WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll · 21/07/2021 21:55

I was cringeing for her when she asserted that immigrants get UC and whatever other benefits, then when she was challenged and gainsaid, all she had was "But I read it yesterday".

Mike Parry is another one who will bluster so confidently about something as factual and then, when challenged, will backtrack with "Well, I would have thought that.....".

Not that the lefty ones don't have their moments too - Owen Jones is often (unintentionally) hilarious and Yasmin AB can be very patronising indeed (although I agree with her views more often than not).

I'd like to know how many regular callers they have, as it always seems to be the same few people. Do they have a small pool of callers in the first place, or do the 'regulars' have a special hotline that automatically overrides anybody calling on the standard number?!

By far the most consistently fair, sensible, rational, realistic and intelligent person on the show is Storm. If/When Jeremy decides to retire, it will be an absolute travesty if they don't offer the eponymous/main presenter job straight to her.

Gladimnotcampinginthisweather · 23/07/2021 21:28

I like Storm too.
I must admit some of the callers are becoming familiar to me. Maybe I just watch too much.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 24/07/2021 19:03

I think it was better with the studio audience because they had their say. Now it’s changed dynamic. I

wanttomarryamillionaire · 24/07/2021 19:10

Shes utterly vile. They should get rid of her and her fellow nasty piece of work Yasmin AB.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 24/07/2021 19:44

Carol and yasmine don’t agree, which is why it’s good tv when they have them on together.
