I don't hate people, but I do find some very irritating and when they appear on TV I bristle and immediately turn over. N.B. I'm not talking about politicians who I don't agree with, or comedians who simply aren't funny (separate thread). And I'm sure I irritate many people...

Here's a few choice candidates:-

Martin Lewis. Means well but he's soooo intense.
Gemma Collins. FFS.
Stephen Mulhearn. Very smiley but a face you just want to slap.
Eric Cantona. Turns arrogance into an art form.
Katie Price. WTF.
Kay Burley. Stroppiness personified.
Anyone who laughs (or even smiles) when Alan Sugar delivers a pathetic scripted 'joke'.
Russell Brand. Just because.

Paddy McGuinness - like he’s trying to play a cheeky chap when I bet in secret he’s a prick
Chris stark & Jordan north - both on capital breakfast trading off being “lads” cringe
Laura kunsburg - just a annoying woman all round
Gregg James - seems like he means well but I just find his constant energy very irritating
Chris Harris - some of his videos are ok on YouTube but he just seems like a very angry man and would be hostile to anyone’s views that where different to his own (much like lots of PHs)

Was never a fan of Mark Lawrenson as a football pundit, the more time went on the harder he seemed to try and "play up to a character", and spent more time trying to shoehorn lame jokes or puns in than actual punditry.

They would be wrong, I’m an absolutely awful person, literally scum of the earth, I’m one step away from a blacked out Range Rover sport parked across 4 spaces in Tesco

Clare Balding.

Just stick to horse racing, and stop buggering up everything else you "present".

Yeah but the front one I’ve removed it from the centre of the bumper and cable tied it to the lower grill and off to the left in an Alfa Romao style? They’re smoked and short too, misplaced BO55 LAD, cost me a weeks universal credit

Claudia Winkleman. I'd happily consign to old witch to eternal damnation in the pits of Hell. For no other reason than that ridiculous fringe. And the irritation factor. Along with most of the others mentioned above.

Honorary mention for Greg(ggggg) Wallace; I knew he was a wrong 'un long before it was 'news'.

I’ve met Chris Harris twice and he came across very well. Edit to say it was before he became famous so might have changed.

I think I'd get on with him, like Hugh Grant I think he's accepted that as he's reached a certain age, and that the world is now changing without him. He's grumpy about it like most of us are, or will be when it happens, but he's accepted it and is honest about it.

The opposite would be Jeremy Clarkson, even though he's in his 60s, he cannot accept that the world is no longer changing to suit his era and he's angry about it. He lacks the empathy to understand that other people want different things and their desires have merit. Younger people are shaping the world. Given his recent health scare he seems to be better able to accept his own mortality and it might mellow and accept change a bit better.

Adam Henson - no interest in farming issues or the countryside in general. More concerned about self-promotion and financial gain
Carol Voderman - has gone from a very pleasant and bright, if slightly bland, tv presenter to a plastic, pneumatic Barbie with strident views on politics that must be rammed down everyone’s throats
