You are right there. The same as Vanessa Fetlz on the radio, she is so opinionated she interrupts people who she is supposed to be asking questions of and answers her own questions. Grrr!!!

It's so much that for me, but the way she has to think up two synonyms for every other word, term, name, designation. |

is it too soon to say I didn't like Bruce Forsyth much, generally avoided programmes he did (apart from Strictly but you could look away if needed) and always wondered what the fuss was about. Probably too soon but there you go. I didn't like Monkhouse either just to balance things a bit.

People assumed that he was such a good sport, he would take it in good part. Seemingly he didn't. "They say you should only speak good of the dead," said Lionel. "He's dead. Good!" |

Michael McIntyre. Does anyone seriously think he's funny? I've yet to hear him crack any jokes.

I always like Bob Monkhouse because he used to do a programme where he showed old silent comedy films, and I enjoyed that. I assumed then that he was really into that stuff - and he was: all the films he showed were from his own collection. But he was enthusiastic about any comedy - how it worked, and how to get a particular effect. And he was a great collector of things to do with comedy as well. The smarmy character was just that: a character: he wasn't really like that. |

Oh, I've thought of one - Dan Cruickshank. He's good, and he knows his stuff (and I do watch him), but his pronunciation of certain words really bugs me: his programme about Mad King Ludwig was really spoilt by his constant use of the word Baarvaria: it was like he was doing it deliberately.
And anyone who pronounces the word eccentric as essentric - I can't remember if he does that, but he looks like the kind of man (and it's always a man) who would. Baarvaria though - I ask you. It's like a game to choose place names for the Kingdom of Sheep.

The smarmy character was just that: a character: he wasn't really like that. Bob Monkhouse was a very good bloke. My dad got to know him well, along with quite a few stars. He was a mechanic in a West End garage but we did not have a car ourselves. Bob M lent us one to go on ho!iday in! |
