I don't ever listen to commercial radio because I can't deal with the adverts.

For some reason I don't give a monkeys about TV ads, but radio ads drive me round the bend.

Richard Bacon's is so bad he is quite entertaining. A bit like watching a really bad film - there's a tipping point when you start to enjoy it

Mick 'Quinny' Quinn. So stupid, uninformed, inflexible and entrenched in his views he makes Darren Gough look like Richard Branson.

Durham and Gough - end of discussion. I like Mickey Quinn, Colin Murray and Richard Bacon.

John Gaunt, absolutely bloody awful, egotist and all round tw@t who's mo was to ridicule those who disagreed with him and to brag about his time when he promoted The Specials. Did he ever tell you how he went bankrupt, then got back on his feet? YES! A fudging million times. A horrible little Englander who wasn't fit to lace the boots of the great Mike Dicken.

Have a listen to this - very funny:

Of course Moyles was 'the daddy' of obnoxious, self promoting, annoying hosts. However, Alex thingy,(the Welsh sl@pper from the One Show)[Radio 2 holiday relief] is like a painful operation without anaesthetic. If I hear Graham Norton pause,say aaaaaaaaaaaah, then laugh at his own 'jokes' I will implode!!!

Somebody earlier did not like Jane Garvey. I liked her when she worked with Peter Allen. I thought they made a good team, first on Breakfast and later on Drive. However, I question her judgment - she was married to Adrian Chiles.

My most annoying presenter is Nicky Campbell, a smug (thinks he's funny) smart@rse!

Poor Chiles has to pander to the mentality of the average football supporter whereby
if you say something slightly unusual you are met with a furrowed brow and the
possibility of violence...maybe even from fellow presenters.

Colin Murray. Worst TV presenter too


^ think he is really good,although I have to put forward Hawksbee & Jacobs who very helpfully giigle and laugh at their own jokes just in case they are not funny ! Plain

MadVlad agree with you on half your post paul hawksbee is on a different level to his giggling , unfunny sidekick who can't even string a long sentence together off the auto cue without making a horlicks of it tune ion at 1.05pm weekdays and you will see where I'm coming from

I like hawksbee and jacobs.  Whilst he's not funny in himself, Andy Jacobs grumpiness, chuckling and willingness to boot the boot in where required makes him a good sidekick.

Sam Delaney and Max Rushton are absolutely dire, but Dan Lobb was even worse when did some summer cover on talksport.

The Two Mikes, aka Mike Parry and Mike Parry on Extra Time on TalkSport, late at night/early in the morning, sometimes has me laughing my head off - like this morning, when Parry was on about 'powdered alcohol' and people sprinkling it on their tuna sandwiches at lunchtime instead of going to the pub.

It was such a wonderfully rambling, bizarre description that I was chuckling in my bed and couldn't drop off to sleep!

I've just found that you can listen in to all the TalkSport shows again online if you click the 'menu' tab, then 'listen live' and then click 'listen again'.

Mike Parry Laugh

Sounds like he's still coming up with his outlandish ideas.

Mike said he would be able to survive a plane crash by jumping, putting his atms into the crucifix position and gliding safely to the ground

Hahaha! I can imagine, Nick!
I've only discovered him this last few months and some of the things he comes out with are so funny I'm chucking even hours later if the thought of what he's said pops back into my head.

He was on for three hours last night with Mike Graham. The best 3 hours worth of nonsense worth listening to!

James O'Brien (LBC) is working his way up my list
By:
The Leopard
When: 25 Jul 14 11:01
James is usually very good except when he goes on about "being married is the height of exquisiteness"

and the fact that he is still a believing catholic even though he was treated badly by the priests at the top catholic public school, Ampleforth, where abusers were later found to have operated.
By:

When: 25 Jul 14 11:03
Tbf, James is extremely eloquent, articulate and erudite but I think he likes the sound of his own voice a bit too much

I think Chris Evans is quite inventive and don't mind him at all. I met a girl who used to be his p.a. once and she thought he was a wonderful employer and very generous with it. I think Richard Bacon's quite good and Jane Harvey, Victoria Derbyshire (who has a lovely voice) and Adrian Chiles aren't bad either. It goes without saying that all Talksh1te presenters are unbearable and I can't bring myself to listen to them. I find Nicky Campbell an arrogant slimeball and Steve Wright, like Chris Moyles, with their self-congratulatory emails cringe making and should have been pensioned off years ago.

Nicky Campbell is James O'Brien lite, imo.

Chris Evans certainly comes across as a genuinely good bloke

Never thought I'd see the day that someone would describe Victoria Derbyshire as 'not bad.' She's fecking awful. Never been a fan of Chris Evans but he's not nearly as bad as he used to be. He's almost bearable these days.
