"Susannah Reid"

I thought on the contrary that many people who had worked with her described Reid as ruthlessly ambitious.

In fairness I nominated Reid (almost exactly) 4 years ago, would n't nominate her now as she's become over-exposed,over-promoted and too 'celebrity'.

I am surprised,however,that nobody has questioned the inclusion of Jon Venables near the top of the thread. Confused

Strong objection to Gary Lineker.

Become impossibly smug and can't ask a question.

Strong objection to Gary Lineker here too. A slightly improved presenter but still average-poor, and can't resist his snide remarks, and I dislike his adverts.

Charlie Flynn is a great shout. His interview was the best at the games. "The mailman delivers" "Ants, but ants that roared like lions". The boy was hyper and no wonder, brilliant.

He was terrific, Akabula. Without doubt the best interview of the games.

Such pure joy, excitement, humour and spontaneity after he won the Gold was wonderful to see.

First time I've laughed out loud for a long time TT. He was brilliant in the ring and brilliant out of it.
If anybody is depressed then try to watch this interview. It would even put a smile on the face of Northern Lad.

I've just found the Charlie Flynn interview on the BBC site.

They've cut a few minutes out of it where he thanks his mum for doing his washing and looking after his diet, but it's more or less all there.

Here it is, if anyone wants to smile:

I've just thought of another one:

Michael Winters the Cork trainer of Missunited.

I was hoping that someone would have put his interview at Goodwood last week, both before and after the race - and his exploits at urging her home in front of the big screen in the paddock on YouTube by now but they haven't.

What a cracking bloke.

Although he was a big posh bassa I found it impossible to dislike Henry Cecil, even when he  seemed like an arrogant dandy fop back in the 80s...I also find it impossible to dislike the posh Terry Thomas dude on Bargain Hunt...and the well known big posh trainer called John Gosden.
