I'll start with Kate Humble.

Well it's my own fault for switching on "LambWatch" of course but I turned it off again after 7 mins (honest).

She is so humungously patronising, never stops talking and everything is always about her and not the actual programme.

On a more positive note, I really love Monty Don.

And yes, before you ask, I am very bored today

Adrian Chiles for various reasons that cannot be mentioned on here.

Another one here for Davina.

The news reader with the incredibly square jaw on sky news.

MarineIguana · 11/03/2010 18:08

Yes I like John Torode a lot more, he always looks so refreshingly hungover and unwashed.

Besom · 11/03/2010 18:18

Jeremy Clarkson by a long way.

Jonathan Ross.

he just needs to be put to sleep really. A talentless twat with an ego the size of the national debt.

I had a boyfriend about 12 years ago who was the absolute doppleganger of matt allright. I thought he was gorgeous at the time.

it was only a while later when I saw matt allbright on tv I was able to look back on things objectively. matt allbright helped me see things clearly.

YanknCock · 11/03/2010 18:30

Bill 'I don't understand it so I'm going to be really condescending and/or make a very stupid unfunny joke' Turnbull. Twat.

YanknCock · 11/03/2010 18:31

thesteelfairy....oh him too, Zoolander I call him. He's always posing while the other person is reading!

yama · 11/03/2010 18:33

One person sprang to mind when I saw thread title - Tess Daly.

YanknCock · 11/03/2010 18:33

no wait, the Zoolander I'm thinking of is on BBC and has the insane cheekbones--looks like he's sucking a lemon.

Starbear · 11/03/2010 18:35

Anne Diamond gets right up my nose. Middle England whiney voice. I like Kirsty Young but my mate who has worked with her doesn't.
I can't stand that Irish comedian ginger hair (not that I mind ginger some of my best friends are ginger)who presented game shows wears smarts suits has been on Mock of the Week recently. I don't remember his name but you know who I mean don't you!!! You do. You do. He was a game show Saturdays nights about 30's You know him!!! (or am I turning into my mother)

thighsmadeofcheddar · 11/03/2010 18:36

Piers Morgan. I hate him. Obsessively.

What has Adrian Chiles done? Apart from break up with his wife? I like him...

arolf · 11/03/2010 18:37

jonathon ross
the economics presenter on bbc breakfast - his head does not match his body!

that bloody bloody bloody chirpy weather presenter on bbc breakfast. carol something. gah, loathe her! so fecking chirpy about shitty weather first thing in the morning.

kate humble is deeply annoying too. also too chirpy.

the masterchef presenters should both be taken out and quietly put to sleep, and replaced with people who can speak English properly, and not SHOUT all the time

davina mcall, who is part crow, squawking and flapping.

anyone associated with big brother/any dancing show.

in fact, the only presenters I like are James May, and Harry Hill/Charlie Brooker, although they don't count really, do they?

CuppaTeaJanice · 11/03/2010 18:41

Ben Shepherd - smug, sexist twat with scrawny skin.

Joe Swash, John Mcririck (sp?), Carla Romano from GMTV....

But the most irritating person on telly by a long way, although she's not a presenter, is that woman on the Accident helpline/Claims Direct/sue people for ridiculous reasons ltd advert. The one with the stupid fringe that comes only halfway down her forehead. She slipped on some water in a reception area somewhere and injured her knee. Makes me think with a bloody awful haircut like that, she deserves to hurt herself. Grrrrrr!!

YanknCock · 11/03/2010 18:43

Matthew Amroliwala aka Zoolander

midnightexpress · 11/03/2010 18:47

I adore Monty too. He was talking about his wife on the radio a while ago - v moving. He really lurves her.

Arf at Zoolander.

Fearne Cotton, gah.
Piers Morgan, gnash.
Jeremy Clarkson, twitch.

arolf · 11/03/2010 18:51

ooh, cupptea - i always snark at the tv when thAT AD COMES ON, SAYING 'WHY DIDN'T YOU SPEND SOME OF THE SETTLEMENT ON A HAIRCUT?!'

oops, sorry for caps.

Sukie1971 · 11/03/2010 18:52

Fiona effing Phillips. Only had GMTV job for so long cos shes married to the boss.
I remember turning on the TV on the morning Princess Diana died. FP consistently called her Lady Di. Disrespectful bint.

GordianKnot · 11/03/2010 18:52

i turn it off if they annoy me

candyfluff · 11/03/2010 19:02

terry wogan - jeez he is so annoying ,monotone voice and sooooooooooo slow

5inthebed · 11/03/2010 19:05

KATE THORNTON because she SHOUTS everything, she can't just talk like everyone else.

Butkin · 11/03/2010 19:16

Love Kate Humble!

Topically - we loathe Carla Romano. Her incredible rudeness to Tom Hanks when doing red carpet interviews after the Oscars beggared belief. She is loathsome.

Agree about the Winkleman fringe - so annoying!
