Annie, maybe we should have a Who would you want to throw a shoe at?

Funnily enough, the sickly Gareth Malone would come high on my list. He seems to have completely dumbed himself down and gone for the celebrity meal ticket.

I don't think there is a more loud, pushy woman on tv Juliette, I like your husbands reasoning ?

Juliette Sat 16-Sept-17 18:38:07

Loud is an understatement Ab I realise she's entitled to her opinion but she doesn't have to shout at me.
DH thinks she's maybe come from a big family and has had to SHOUT to get herself heard. smile

She is certainly not one of my favourites on the press preview. I think she is a loud know-all and I find most of her views unpalatable.

I do like the presenters of Sky press preview though, especially Anna Botting. They tend not to interrupt rudely and keep everything good-natured.

I agree that Julia Hartley-Brewer has a pretty good line in sneering, although I do quite like the fact that she isn't entirely predictable in her views. Sometimes (though not often!) I find myself agreeing with her.

I want to throw the shoe whenever that Julia Hartley Brewer comes on - she is always so supercilious and sarcastic.

Anniebach Sat 16-Sept-17 17:22:27

No idea sorry, don't know who Gareth is , she is married to a Bosnian

trisher Sat 16-Sept-17 16:57:29

Is she Gareth's mum?

Anniebach Sat 16-Sept-17 16:00:56

Maple leaf, the paper reviews are not celebrity programmes

Anniebach Sat 16-Sept-17 15:59:53

I don't disagree with everything she says, just wish she would tone it down and stop interrupting others,

paddyann Sat 16-Sept-17 15:55:48

I've seen her on Newsnight I think ,and she was very vocal and very anti the Independence movement in Scotland ,one of those who dont live in the country but who thinks she's an expert on it.I do wish they would make people do some research before letting them open their usually BIG mouths and spout utter nonsense about Scotland.The Snow guy is the same ,the young one but I suppose he has a vested interest as his father in law owns half of the north of Scotland and he'll be concerned about his inheritence if we achieve our independence And YES I wanted to throw things at the screen when she was on too ..instead I just dont watch any BBC "news" because generally its biased

Mapleleaf Sat 16-Sept-17 15:47:34

I've never heard of her, but I'm not into watching any of these celebrity programmes anyway.

Anniebach Sat 16-Sept-17 15:17:09

Juliette, she is sooo loud isn't she ?

Juliette Sat 16-Sept-17 15:10:11

No, you're not alone Ab shoe through the telly time here too.

kittylester Sat 16-Sept-17 15:08:23

She's never entered my consciousness - what does she do? And where does she do it?

Charleygirl Sat 16-Sept-17 15:01:41

Don't know this lady - sounds as though I should happily remain in ignorance.

ninathenana Sat 16-Sept-17 13:42:09

I confess I had to Google her.
I've not seen her on TV for awhile.

Anniebach Sat 16-Sept-17 13:36:56

Am I alone in wanting to throw my shoe at the tv when this woman , I have to switch off/over
