    Sam Smith, I don't get the appeal.

    Paddy McGuinness. He's now taken over Sunday Mornings on my local radio station.

    I cannot stand Miranda Hart or Michael McIntyre. And I can't for the life of me understand how anyone who appreciates clever comedy can stand either of them. A real case of Emperor's new clothes. And yet there they both are, with the BBC's tongue lodged firmly up their arses and people raving about both as some kind of comedy genuises. And mourning the end of 'Miranda'!!! As if some woman doing 'funny' walks and falling over is going to be some terrible loss to comedy?!!

    FFS. ^_^

    Off the top of my head, Joan Collins (pretty bad actress, she has too much ego, and seems to lack warmth and humour on chat shows), Biggins (never found him funny), and Keith Lemon (I just don't 'get' him)

    Forgot about Miranda. Watched 10 minutes of her "sitcom" didn't laugh once.

    I think most of the usual suspects have been mentioned.

    Vernon Kay. Not exactly sure what the point of him is really.

    Oh, and, Sarah Millican, who is probably OK in small doses, but small doses are impossible because, as we know, she is on everything.

    And Jo Brand, who seems to be in panel show semi-retirement. She should have been binned off after her three jokes (being fat, "men" and, eating, oh wait that's two) stopped being funny - about 20 seconds after telling them.

    Slightly off tangent, but Ed Sheeran for me. I mean as a person he seems absolutely ace, but his music is just dirge to me.

    Agreed. He seems like a decent guy, but I just don't get the hype about his music at all.

    Price, Andre, Katona, Mark Wright, Olly Murs, Amy Childs, Joey Essex

    All appear to have fans despite being void of any charm, charisma, likeability or talent

    Completely agree with those.

    I'd also add Lemon, O'Leary, Ant & Dec, Sarah Millican, Graham Norton, Alan Carr, Melanie Sykes, Myleene Klass, Cheryl Cole & Victoria Beckham to that list

    ^ Bill 'greatest chatshow guest in the entire universe' Murray would disagree with you. And so would I.

    Agree wih most of the rest of your selection of duds though, particularly Sarah Millican.

    One Direction

    Keith Lemon - I'm sure Leigh is a nice enough chap but the character he plays is just awful

    Miranda Hart - I've seen the sitcom and it's just her pulling faces to a side camera for half an hour. Peter Simon did that better on Bid TV for three hours.

    The shouty voiceover bloke on the X Factor. Again, i'm sure he's a nice enough person but the shoutyness lost it's appeal ages ago.

    Oh, how did I forget Joe Swash? *Shudders*

    And Amanda Holden...a fame-hungry wannabe who mentions Simon Cowell in every single conversation so that we know that she moves in A-list circles (yeah, right)

    Agree about Kylie....minimal talent and a very weird-looking face that hasn't moved since 1998. (See also: Amanda Holden)

    Joey Essex: Being uneducated is not a crime. TV promoting it as something to laugh at, is.

    David Walliams: Unconvincingly camp. Convincingly unfunny.

    Russell Kane: Wearing tight trousers and make-up doesn't make you a gay icon, dear.

    One Direction: See South Park, Mickey Mouse and Jonas Brothers.

    Ariana Grande. Such a dull singer-over half her songs are collaborations (she's
    never had a big hit single on her own). And she was a plank as
    an actress. Plus she's very rude to everyone.
    I wonder how she even got a showbiz career in the first place?

    Unconvincingly heterosexual I'd have said, but each to their own opinion etc...

    Myleene Klass, a woman who thinks she is the only woman on the planet to have ever given birth to children! Get's by on her looks and sob story marriage breaking up.

    Also have to agree with Kylie, Can't sing, never written or produced a song in her life, has a lingerie and bedding line she doesn't design but quite happy to pretend it's all down to her ingenuity.
    Except she has. For example, her entire "Impossible Princess" was written and co-produced by her. She's also co-written many of her hits.

    I doubt that very much. She comes across in interviews as being a bit thick and void of any significant personality. Her whole career has been staged managed, from writers,producers and stylists on call 24 hours a day. Next you'll be telling us she is bigger than Madonna.
