    I'd missed Cordon by dint of the fact that he's too obvious.

    A man who's made the sheer personification of 'annoying' an entire career ...

    ... how on earth could anyone like him except from sympathy.

    And another.

    He was in 'Teachers' about 20 years ago. In it he played a fat, unfunny annoying kid who nobody liked called Jeremy. Someone should tell him that the programme finished ages ago and he needs to come out of role.

    Any politician, ex politician, anyone spouting partisan politics and political journalists - including Paxman

    Anyone who is on screen for no other reason than to promote themselves - lots of current and ex sports people in this category

    Anyone famous just for being famous - including reality show participents, so called influencers and quiz brains

    Anyone on screen through nepotism

    TV chefs, cooks and wine geeks

    Anyone else I may have missed out above

    I spend more time on Internet news, YouTube and Twitter than watching TV but more and more I feel like an alien so I think there is no point watching anymore.

    I barely recognise my home town, it is destroyed by drugs, degenerate kids (many not ever reached their teens) and those who grew up to be degenerate adults so, as TV just reflects this society, then I have no interest in it.

    There's a strange phenomenon whereby cheeky teenagers, like Anton Dec, remain cheeky teenagers all their lives. Cordon, Chris Evans, Clarkson, Boris Johnson etc may remove the school cap but the act remains the same.

    It's f*cking pathetic.

    You explain my philosophy perfectly.

    I don't want to see reality shows where tedious people, with lives less interesting than my own, talk shyte and gossip about other tedious people.

    I want to be entertained by brilliant talented people who can do things I could never dream of ...

    ... people who practice and practice and practice to make the virtually impossible seem easy.

    I used to be a fan of Victoria Derbyshire on Radio 5. She did the breakfast show after Jane Garvey left and I thought her and Worricker were great. Many hours in my car listening to those 2. Not seen her on TV have to admit.

    She certainly has a great face for radio.
    She took her radio show onto morning tv and I really couldn’t stand her.
    She’s now on newsnight and doing ok.
    Can I also add Charlie and Naga. Grumpy and Whiney.

    I'm sure most of the decent people on here would have hated the life I've lead and they'd be wise to ...

    ... but I've loved the sheer terror of waking up every morning never knowing wtf would happen next <laugh>

    Respect everyone’s own opinions, but I have met Gemma Collins through work on a number of occasions, none of it with a tv crew etc and she is absolutely lovely. Can understand if people don’t like her in-front of the camera, I have the same feeling with Keith lemon.

    That's fine mate, but I have loads of friends and family who are also entirely talentless ...

    ... I love them all but wouldn't pay to see any one of them <laugh>

    You’re not the first to reply with that comment <laugh> but seriously if you can give it a try very funny and educational to the aspects of the farming industry

    Piers Morgan is a pompous ass and possibly a horrible person but i find him entertaining and find myself in agreement with 90% of what he says.
