Angela Griffin - why?
I've nothing against the girl, she seems pretty innocuous but why is she suddenly so succesful and seemingly never off the telly?
Her post Corrie career seemd to ahve settled into the same as most others, with the odd drama etc. And then suddenly came Sky 1's Angela and Friends, seemingly from no-where? I'd have thought there would be far more likely candidates than Angela for their own chat-show.
And now she's all over the ad breaks - narrating or appearing.
I'm just rather dumbfounded where her sudden popularity with TV makers has come from.

I meant more as a "personality" than an actress. That's what i meant by syaing her career (acting) post Corrie was going along fine. She never seemed to be one favorued by the likes of Heat etc as a"celebrity" so i just wondered why she was suddenly seen as a personality, presenting and being the face of products. Just seemed to come out of nowhere.
As an actress, she's mediocre... as a "presenter" (WHAT a cheap profession!) she comes across like a shop girl. As for the adverts... good god almighty!
She's entirely useless and her continued employment in the face of so many TALENTED actors who we hardly see is beyond belief.
Ah, I see.
That thought did cross my mind!
Me too.
I think she's cute and has a nice personality, but a little goes a long way and she doesn't really have what it takes to be a presenter, bless her.
Being a good presenter takes a fair amount of intelligence, quick wit and a genuine interest in other people. That's hard for an actress since they have mostly been trained to be very self-obsessed and focused on their own careers and not other peoples. They have to be single minded and tough skinned.
And that awful, awful ad is a very big mistake. It's SO bad it's cringe worthy. I can't watch it.
Ah, but that's the point. The product pitch is "guilt-free chocolate for diet-obsessed women", as one look at the execrable advert makes painfully clear :eek:
Angela Griffin - WHY?
(although from her perspective I totally get the 'it wont last forever so hammer it while it does' approach)
Her chatshow isn't very good either and hasn't proven a success with mediocre ratings.
She isn't attractive, her acting skills are average, she's rubbish at presenting and has the personallity of a door-nail. I don't think "Why?" is a good question, I think "What is the point of...." is more a valid question. How she continues to get work is beyond me, perhaps she's just cheaper to hire or knows someone in high places who gets her work.
Yeah aimed at frumpy middle aged women that talk nonsense all day. Advert is awful - constant shouting.
Just buy a real chocolate bar and do some exercise.
I hope we haven't got another Myleene Klaas in the making :rolleyes:
