More a TV teeth itch but

Why do presenters HAVE to point out when they visit somewhere that

They have special access
Been given exclusive permission


and other 'Arn't i a lucky bd doing this?


THe average viewer will get it that some of the places are of limits and to make to programmes they have to get in there, or is it nowadays thay the places shown get inundated with requests from idiots who cannot grasp it


Oh and James Martin

I play a drinking game during his prog ( I do like him a lot and think he is the best chef on TV no poor Gary Rhodes has gone)

everytime he says the word amazing i take a drink..As a result i am now a borderline alchoholic and have to watch it on catch up as i am normally pissed out of my head in the first half hour

PLEASE if anyone on here knows him tell him to get a bloody dictionary or STFU

His propensity to say ‘like that’ it really can be irritating.

And it’s a ‘drop’ of liquid, not a bit of liquid.

How hard can English be ffs.

Sally Nugent. "We've been talking about..." no, you haven't. You've been reading an autocue. And her fake sincerity and wokeness.

Anyone being interviewed (usually women) who feel the need to make everything a question with a rising inflection.

Jamie Oliver - "so",
I had the same idea about a drinking game, would be very pissed, very quickly.

That said, Raymond Blanc is just as bad for repetitive terms. I like the guy, but his mid-week evening programme is littered throughout with “et voila…” and “bien…” rolleyes

Channel 4 continuity announcers who've been hired in for any reason except being able to talk clearly.

It's all well and good hiring people for diversity (like chronic disability) but it's a bit pointless when no one gets to see them and they can't really do their actual job.

Maga Munchetty, How that woman is allowed anywhere near a TV studio is beyond me. Definitely a contender for the most arrogant and rude presenter and possibly worst interviewer I've seen.

Even her fellow BBC Breakfast colleagues think she's a .

Naga not Maga.

And I agree. But she ticks all the boxes doesn't she? Ethnic minority, woman, haircut like a 12 year old boy.

I think they should bring back that guest announcer who had Tourettes and kept saying random words, mostly 'biscuit!' as I recall. Continuity stuff is dull as ditchwater, anything that brightens it up is good for me.

Any football commentator, screaming in orgasmic ecstasy as someone or other manages to kick a ball between a pair of poles. Ordinarily I wouldn't hear them, except that radio stations use said screaming when trailing their sports coverage.

And any continuity announcer that does anything other than announce the next few programmes. I don't care what your name is or how long you'll be working, I don't care whether you're looking forward to the programme after next, just announce the thing and go away.

I’d rather hack my boaby off with broken glass than lay eyes on either BBC breakfast TV or that Naga monstrosity. No one else would surely employ such a bitter and twisted nasty piece of work .

A few weeks ago, the continuity announcer was plugging a new series & sure she said “See you next Tuesday”

Now, either she was set up or a bit nieve.
The next announcer.... a bloke said
“ Starts next Tuesday”

I wonder if anybody had noticed the initial faux - pas.
