What makes you reach (or run!) for the Off button?

Party political broadcasts for me too. Why oh why do they insist on accompanying any dialogue with dreadful, mournful background music, too? It’s bad enough listening to them spouting the usual lies without inflicting that dreadful music as well. (They do it on such a lot of the charity adverts, too - really puts me off and has me reaching for the off button or volume control until they’re over!)

Desert Island Discs - now we've got this anodyne "new" person presenting - encouraging very boring interviews on it.

My DH going to bed! He has the TV on all the time and it drives me mad so as soon as he's gone I leap for the remote. Peace, for a while, until I go to bed myself, then, guess what, the TV in the bedroom is on! I wait for him to start snoring breathing heavily, then I reach for that off button again. "Hey, I was watching that" he says.

Radio 2
Jeremy Vines voice
Elaine Page’s laugh ?

Any type of sports. Any type of car programme. Violence . Most reality progs. Sex scenes that make one feel like a voyeur. Jeremy Corbin and most party political broadcasts. All the worshipping of the so called ‘Royals’.
If fact most of the time I’d rather read or craft or be out and about.

I have to say that I like the specsavers adverts particularly the original sheering the dog one. It makes me laugh and its still very clever joke.

The more recent dog-shearing ad, about glaucoma, is much more alarming - as it's intended to be.

The Eastenders music - can't abide the programme. It's so dreary and miserable.
Any presenters who speak with a forced 'laugh' in their voice.
Anything with Lorraine Kelly - she's so bl**dy false and I don't believe a word anything she says.

Has anyone seen the Onken ad with the cat and balloon? I thought it was funny and so true of cats.

For me it's
Reality TV
All soaps
ITV, (except for Lewis and Long Lost Family)
Mrs Brown's Boys
Sport (why don't they get a sports channel?)
Shouty programmes late at night.

I can't stand Eastenders or Coronation Street, any of the soaps really.
Jonathan "Woss".
Keith Lemon.
I'm very selective in my viewing, unlike my husband who puts the tv on and watches rubbish! He likes the shopping channels, I never put them on.

Laura Kuenssberg - rude and aggressive

Definitely the Eastenders tune. Now there is a hymn set to it. We had to sing it at my FIL's and MIL's funerals.

What makes ME go for the switch off button? How long have you got?
Seriously though it has to be that cringing ad where they 'av a cuppa tea' then dance in the streets.

Any advert has me reaching for the off button, inane twaddle.

Again Eastenders theme tune, just know misery and shouting will follow. Elaine Pages laugh drives me mad too.

Ant and Dec. Lorraine Kelly. Nish Kumar. Soaps. Reality TV.
The gruesome twosome Holly and Philip. Greg Wallace.... and agree with the verdict on Fiona Bruce on Question Time. The question I'd like to ask is why ????

Gino D'campo - sorry if I've spelled that wrong. I think it's the cheeky chappy persona which I dislike.
Tena Lady ads, most ads in fact. I reach for the mute button.

All of the above, plus and I have forgotten his name (having a senior moment ) the guy on bbc2 at 12 o’clock lunchtime.
He’s voice gets to me.

Any of the soaps and anything that comes on TV where Trump or Farage are concerned. I switch the tv straight over.

I can just about tolerate reading about what is happening which includes them. Listening to them. Not a chance. I would have no T.V

The 'One Show' opening 'music' and the false hysteria that follows it; Jonathan Ross, party political broadcasts. Otherwise I am quite tolerant!

And I thought I was the only one who couldn't stand EP's 'laugh'.
Mrs Brown's Boys - just don't get it at all!
Love The Archers theme - agree about East Enders and Corrie - both very depressing!

Adverts!

Anything in which Suranne Jones appears!

I try not to watch any of the adverts if I can help it! The bits that annoy me are the trailers for upcoming programmes that are repeated ad infinitum as well as the ad breaks.
