Television presenters you really like

I used like Philip and Fern, when they got the giggles.

I know there were issues that brought him down, and seemingly women found him hard to work with, but Frank Bough was a complete professional. No one these days could cover a general election one day and then host Granstand the next. I met Frank Bough at Eatls Court when he was presenting Breakfast Time and a was a complete gentleman.

David Olusoga, Simon Reeve, anyone with a smile and a clear voice.

Made me laugh

Thanks, loved that.

I always liked Des O'Connor.

Morecambe & Wise have a lot to answer for

Bradley Walsh
Ben Shepard

You'll only know her if you watch Look North, but Carole Malia is really good and down to earth. To people over 50, this show will mean the legend that was Mike Neville, but Carole has become just as well liked.

I also really like Rob Brydon on Would I Lie To You.

Lee Mack, David Mitchell and Rob Brydon together frequently leave me with tears running down my cheeks.

Am with you there, the three of them are just 🤣

If you can, try to get to see the live recording of the show.
From the moment they walk out until the end, the hilarity never stops 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Three and a half hours of it on the day we went in series 18.
Easily the funniest night of my life.

Not a fan of Alison Hammond. I like Ant and Dec . Alan Carr is growing on me and Bradley Walsh is good on blankety blank.

Neil Oliver and David Attenborough?
Climate denier and planet protector! Wow!

I wonder what made Neil change his tune?

David Olusoga - his voice is so gentle, it's almost hypnotic 😴
Also love Lucy Worsley's history programmes, she's so 'unstuffy' and makes history come to life with her (sometimes outrageous) historical costumes - a historian with a wry sense of humour.

Richard Osman has come on leaps and bounds since he left Pointless and created his own game show.
Also Robson Green's documentaries about the coast have shown he's more than an actor and a singer.

Amol Rajan, Martine Croxall, Reeta Chakrabatti, Helen Lewis, Lucy Worsley, Alice Roberts, Clive Myrie, Ian Hislop.

Michael Portillo's railway journey programmes are excellent, he is a very good communicator and doesn't just show the touristy aspect of the countries he visits.

I also watched The Art of Scandanavia on BBC4 this week. I hadn't seen Andrew Graham-Dixon on tv for a while and I'd forgotten how interesting his programmes are.

Oh and of course the great Sir Terry, sometimes I absolutely thought I’d wet myself laughing.

Sara Cox (I like her bonkersness)
Ben Fogle
Sir David
Steve Backshall
Claudia
Clive Myrie
And madly Michael Portillo and all his railway journeys.

I can’t wait to see Amol Rajan and Ramesh on Celebrity Traitors.

Claudia Winkleman has found her niche and nailed it. Not for everyone, I know, but I love watching her on Traitors and also thought she was brilliant on The Great British Sewing Bee.

The other female presenter I like watching is Lucy Worsley. Brings history to life and very watchable. The only thing that irritates me about her is the silly hair clips she puts in her hair to hold her fringe to one side - surely a bit of hairspray would do the same job!

I really like the Anglia News team of Becky Jago and David Whiteley. Of course David Attenborough is brilliant

Ben Shepherd and Richard Madely, simply because of their ability to make live TV easy. I’ve been in the green room with Ben but would never dream to approach him. Was just happy to watch. I worked in TV for a while but in the office.

I loved itv when he would tslk about Jimmy Young being pushed along in his bathchair.
