Did anyone see her interviewing the winning jockey? 'Give us a big grin Liam. Your teeth aren't the best, but you can afford to get them done now!' What a rude cow. Fair enough the chap had teeth like The Pogues' frontman, but thought that was well out of order. She sure isn't an oil painting herself!
Just Goggled her, and she'd a Lebsbianist !

No bearing on the comment above, just FYI !
LOL..how on earth could the "racing world" be shocked she's a lesbian??
She's more butch than cassidy!!! 😉
😀 LMAO @ Foxy !!!!
Alice, 42, is the former partner of comedienne and radio presenter Sandi Toksvig.
*shudders* sticking her neck out a bit there
Yeah, that was a biscuit-arsed thing for her to say. Guy's just one the national on his first time out FFS. She's usually very good, despite having a face like a smacked arse.
He looked a bit self concious after that silly comment.
[rant] Is this what we pay our tv license for? So that lesbians can insult the little fellas? [/rant]

now you come to mention it, yes
is it relevant to anything that she's a lesbian?
just wondered.
A quick word for Hear The Echo who died from a heart attack. These brave brave horses who put their lives on the line every year, insisting on getting out there taking on those dangerous courses for our entertainment. You can see it on their faces, how much they love it, bless 'em.
Does that mean the price of glue will come down? 😯
Isn't she from a racing background ?
maybe she knows the bloke & was having a laugh - did he seem to mind ?
just seen him on the telly. She makes a valid point.
She's a lovely girl in person. I met her several times in Chiswick in the park. Great laugh and dirty mouth. Shame she looks the way she does 😉

Good at the horsey stuff, granted. ****ing hopeless whenever she's given any other sport to work on. Unless it's unleashing those big farmers' hands on some nubile bit of briffit, I guess.
Its all kicking off in the equestrian world - check out horseandhound on the web then make a complaint http://www.bbc.co.uk/cgi-perl/complaints/multistageform3.pl
Some people need to acknowledge and take responsibility
She's apologised now. It's on the BBC news website. Wish he'd said something back to her at the time though. Would have been a pleasantly awkward moment!
Sad that she apologised as the jockey is a good friend and like any good mate she was taking the pee.
Clare and Alice 'married' at the weekend
Why use the quotation marks around the word 'married'? Typical Daily Fail.
I mean they don't say stuff like 'Charles and Cammilla got 'married' in blah blah', do they?
They got married in the same way as anyone else. Just like the Daily Fail, to have a sly dig at marriage between same-sex partners. ****ers.
As for her comments; I don't watch horse racing, and I think she's very poor with other sports. But I don't have to watch. No-one's forcing me to.
Was trying to explain who Claire Balding was to a mate, we decided shes the woman who looks a bit like Ray Mears 🙂
Did think the comment was unfair! Poor guy 😆
