Depending on the guests, its just about watchable, Simon Rimmer is actually fairly good imo,,, but Lovejoy is appalling, I remember him on Soccer AM, I didn't really care back then about his presenting cus I was usually too hungover to care,, its not even so bad its funny, its just awful, he makes Alan Partridge look a top class presenter

If they got rid of Lovejoy I think even more people would watch

Yes, I'd watch it if he wasn't on the show. I like Simon but spending so much time with Tim is starting to rub off on him I've been interested in some of the guests they've had but TL puts me off watching he irritates me so much. It was quite funny on SFTW because Louise Redknapp was just as inept, but he's got intolerable.

No, it only works BECAUSE Lovejoy is so inept.

I am in love Sunday Brunch at the moment. Simon and Tim make such a great duo and the chemistry is perfect. When Simon was off in new york, and that other chef took his place, it did not work at all.

To be honest, I just dont get the negative vibes about Tim. He is one half of the core of the show and I wont go down that 'if you dont like him, dont watch it' route, but I am curious as to why people watch when they know what they are in for when they tune in. Not looking for drama/trolling and so, actually curious as to why non-Tim fans still watch.

He's a total prat who thinks he's cool that's why he can be both irritating and amusing, a bit like Richard Madeley before he got too self-aware.

I've never seen a presenter who reads an autocue as poorly as Lovejoy, it's like watching a 5 year old read a Ladybird book. And the fact he always has a gobfull of food just before he has to do a link.

For all the reasons that doom&gloom and charliesays have said, but Tim MUST stay because IT'S COMPULSIVE VIEWING!!

Yes, for me that was true a while ago. I watched SFTW to see how crap he was, it made me laugh and I wanted to see just how much worse he could get. But somewhere along the line the amusement turned to irritation and then he just started making my blood boil, so for the sake of my blood pressure I stopped watching I want to relax on a Sunday morning and his rudeness, arrogance and inability to string a sentence together without going 'um' and 'ah' put me on edge.
