Whoever thinks Clarkson's a great presenter needs psychiatric help.
He's bloody awful. End of.
julia bradbury,
in fact all Countryfile presentsers except John Craven.
yeah i watch it on sundays ALRIGHT!
Anyone associated with football on ITV.
In fact, come to think of it, anyone on TV that isn't Jeremy Clarkson or Alex Zane.
although it is hilarious that at an early point in their careers some old hand has told them that gurning makes them look interesting as a joke
In Winkleman's defence (of her gurning, not of anything else) that searching squint she does into the camera is because she's practically blind, something like -14 eyesight, so struggles with the camera cue's, floor managers signals and so on.
Clare Balding - odious woman
The greengrocer from Masterchef and his mate with the fat mouth
And Simon Reeve aaaaaargh, he talks like a 5 year old
Oh, now, come on - Jeremy Vine is ace!
You are Hyacinth Bucket and I claim my £5 John Lewis voucher .
In no particular order :-
Sarah Cox
Jeremy Slime
Edith Eleanor Bowman
Bruce (I may be a zombie)Forsyth
The Top Gear Chums
George Lamb
Davina (please love me)McCall
Adam Buxton
Ladies and gentlemen, may I add Lisa Riley to the list.
She absolutely tops the lots for me.
Awful
Pretty much anyone who started out on Radio 1 or Blue Peter in the last decade
Bruce Forsythe is well past it now
That family fortunes Kaye bloke and his equally detestable wife
Richard Hammond (nominated purely for Wipeout, nothing else)
Most comedians do not make good presenters
What's wrong with Clare Balding?
Ladies and gentlemen, may I add Lisa Riley to the list.She absolutely tops the lots for me.

Let it go man! Clearly those scars run deep, but she hasn't worked as a presenter for over a decade - so unless theres a channel I don't know about that airs 12 year old episode of You've Been Framed then your safe to switch the telly on again. 😆
how dare you speak ill of victoria coren (mitchell)
She should have stayed in her original job (reviewing porn films) 😆
Another vote for that awful Welsh woman on the One Show - she's the main reason I cannot bring myself to watch it. Oh and can I add a weather presenter? For those in the North West, that Eno woman, I can't stand her accent and why does she dress as though she's off out to a night club? Just wear some normal clothes for god's sake!
Graham Little and Anna Glowinski from The Cycle Show.............. 🙁
Anna Glowinski from The Cycle Show
No, no, no, not Anna.
(I may have a bit of a girl-crush there, she did put her arm around my shoulder when I met her once.)
The greengrocer from Masterchef and his mate with the fat mouth
The Shouty Chefs. They're the victim of over-stylised production though - particularly the grotesque reaction shots, because all the other presenters of that show end up looking the same.
Michelle Roux Jr is worse

I'm reminded of those old photos of the poor guy getting is his brain zapped by Duchenne de Boulogne
There just seems to be a point during the filming of Masterchef where they just get the present to pull as many faces as they can to create an image bank of concerned faces to edit in later
Can't believe no one has mentioned Tess Daley,
or her hubby!
So many to choose from, be harder to think of a good presenter.
Chris "the Hawk" Hawkins - presents the pre-breakfast show on 6music in the week, sometimes gets the breakfast slot when the admittedly not great Keaveney is away.
Absolutely terrible - sounds like he's got a cold all the time and talks in a weird stilted rhythm that has no link to what he's actual saying. Basically unlistenable. I set my radio alarm to a different station if it will wake me up to his show. Terrible.
Adrian Chiles and Ant n Dec!
This far down the second page, and no-one's mentioned Portillo yet. I find this hard to believe. Has he died?
I also thought Stacy Dooley was crap, but watched that series she did on drugs and she stood up to some tough goverment reps trying to force the interview.
Clare Balding.

Quite liked his railway journeys series tbh.
No votes for Trinny and Susannah? I used to quite like Trinny's "small tits and no bra" thing, but I've even been put of that by the rubbish that comes out of her gob.
Tim Lovejoy
Just oozes that cocky football persona that I detest !
Jools Holland hasn't got a clue about presenting a show but he get's away with it in a passionate about music kinda way.IMO
Gok Whan...
I find Richard Bacon one of the most irritating individuals I`ve ever endured but never met !
H reminds me of Hartley Hare of Pipkins fame !
[i]he greengrocer from Masterchef and his mate with the fat mouth[/i]
Good call. Can't think of a more irritating pair of smug knobends.
Jools Holland hasn't got a clue about presenting a show but he get's away with it in a passionate about music kinda way.IMO
Plus he's been doing it for years - remember ch4's "the Word"? Even earned a broadcasting standards' rebuke for using the F word on a pre-watershed trailer.
the original brown eye-- dr wrong ! on embarassing bits
I can't believe no one has yet mentioned the talent vacuum that is Fearne Cotton.
I remember The Word - I don't recall Jools Holland being on it thought. I do remember him being quite good on The Tube though.
Michel roux Jr is achmed the dead terrorist.
Bill Oddie. Has anyone mentioned Alan Titchmarsh?
Janet Street Porter, not on TV so much now, but she loves the sound of her own voice, but doesn't realise that nobody else does:x
That family fortunes Kaye bloke and his equally detestable wife
Absolutely
The girl sidekick on Total Wipeout .
A bigger black hole of talent I have not seen .
Most of the presenters on Britains got Chlamydia on Ice 2 on ITV9 / BBC23 etc .
Forgot Graham Norton.
I'm sure he used to be funny, but not for a long time.
Patrick Kielty. Smug.
Neil Oliver (and just about every other TV presenter)
That cookery fella with the black greasy hair. Nigel Slater.
Ok so he can cook a bit, but do we have to have superzoom close-ups to see every pore on his smug, lipless FACE?
+1 He could cook anything in the world and I would instantly find it repulsive the minute they cut to a close up of him eating it. Makes me feel a little ill.
Kate Humble
I remember The Word - I don't recall Jools Holland being on it thought. I do remember him being quite good on The Tube though.
😳
Thanks for that, Mr_C! Like the man in the orthopædic shoes, I stand corrected.
Kate Humble
Woa there just one damned minute, Kate Humble is actually one of the best presenters there is.
However @bearnecesities, just because she is pretty doesn't stop her being shit. Half the problem with most of the presenters on tv these days is they have been chosen too look pretty rather than be knowledgeable and genuinely enthusiastic (not the fake enthusiasm that so many of them ooze),
Any one that became famous on a reality tv show - all vacuous wastes of oxygen.
No mention of Vermin Kay!!
The older grey haired guy who did the gadget show (is he still doing it?) always intrigued me, he just over does everything so, so much, to the extent that he looks like an android Kryton like Presenter2000 borg.
He even overshadows that penis of a man with the glasses.
