See now I like Shami Chakrabarty when she's being all serious...

[WilfSell]

...but on HIGNFY she looks like the evil spawn of Jimmy Cranky, Helena Bonham-Carter and an evil hamster (yes, it was a threesome)

What a very accurate description . Only heard her speak once on the bit that I saw.

[WilfSell]

Why thankyou. She said bugger all. Lee Mack was good up until the women comment

[oneplusone]

I went to school with her! I used to go and play at her house!

[WilfSell]

excellent - she is quite cool on the news...

[CalmCalmCalm]

...but comedy is definitely not her thing.

I just wonder why she did it. She is a clever woman with a serious job - why make yourself look like a bit of a divvy by appearing on a panel show with people who are funny for a living?

I also thought she looked peculiar - both in the sense of looking different to how she normally appears when she is on TV and peculiar in the sense of seeming completely at sea on the programme as if she had just sat down in the seat by mistake on her way to another studio!

[WilfSell]

exactly.
