    I agree and would've included her.

    She's really hard work and annoying which prevents me from appreciating whatever special talent she has ...

    ... I know you're supposed to ignore her problems but I can't.

    Agree. It;s not her fault and kudos to her for putting herself out there and almost inviting criticism/abuse, but it's too hard to watch her.

    rarely watch tv, basically because there is very little 'good stuff' on it, maybe i am living in the past a bit but dave allen, two ronnies and such were well worth a switch on, the jordy midgets from the little i have seen are trying to go full on, over the top 'muricanised and the fixed reality rubbish is just turning people into numb clones.

    i understand the problems with Rosie Jones, my bro in law lives here and he is worse with his speech so i do not have the difficulty most will have...although it has taken me years to get a grip with the bro in law.

    surprised there are not stories of celebrities groaning as they turn over in their graves, them lads and lasses had to work hard and fight through some real bad crowds every night just to try and make a name, these days they spend 30 seconds telling a 'joke' on BGT and get a series.

    I was thinking the other day. Over the years when someone famous from the world of entertainment died it would be on the news. Say, somebody like Bruce Forsyth. Who worked his way through the industry, trying his hand at everything and making it as Mr Showbiz. Whether you liked him or not, he got to where he was through graft and talent. Now, 10-15 years ago when somebody died it was often people like Brucie and it would be a rare event. Nowadays, with the ease of making it big, often with little talent, through the vast number of tv channels and internet, the shear number of famous nobodies who will be popping their cloggs in 50 years time? The evening news will be chocked full of obituaries, therell be little room to report the wars and earthquakes. Even today, now, some folk who die, being described as 'legendary'. 'Legendary?' Really?

    My ten, some have already been posted so I'm pleased it's not just me.

    It wouldn't matter what the programme was, if any of the following were in it, or on it, it wouldn't go on.

    1. James Cordon
    2. Rosie Jones
    3. Alan Carr
    4. Jamie Oliver
    5. Gordon Ramsey
    6. Michael Macintyre
    7. Katie Price

    Ant and Dec for me. Forget where they are from and just look at the total lack of talent. How have these two got as far as they have got given what they offer to the entertainment world. Baffles me how they are revered by the bulk of the viewing public.

    That's what I thought too.

    Emma Thompson is another matter though, she flew from Los Angeles to London to join some eco protest.
