Whoever make up Tess on Saturday (programme shown on Sunday) ought to be shot at dawn. They made her look like a evacuee from The Hammer House of Horror. When she appeared on ITT on Friday she looked absolutely lovely - very natural. I also noticed her voice was quite different and there wasn't a trace of an accent. May be she is told to talk with a thick Wosie and So-fee accent.

I've commented on her accent several times. I'm an ex-Londoner but have lived in North Cheshire (as it was once called) and worked all around the Manchester for many years and I am conscious of accents.
Hers is "affected," as is her husband's,
I guess it's to make them sound different.
Yes I know she's from Derbyshire, but she's spent so long away from it her natural accent will have all but disappeared.
If she's going to pronounce "judges" as joodges," then she should really pronounce, "vote" as "vaught."
But she doesn't, her "vote" is "BBC English."
Also when excited or speaking rapidly, the accent completely disappears.
I'm of the opinion, she's a bit "plastic" though she seems a pleasant enough person and works hard at the job.
I also think she should lose the "Essex look," it's beginning to give the place a bad name.

Tess was wearing black trousers at the show, and her presenting skills are streets ahead of those of Old Father Time.
Yes, she's certainly far better at remembering her lines and rarely bumps into the furniture.
Are you referring to "our Brucie" cos if you are - he is the consumate professional and makes Tess look like a wooden doll.
Yep, I agree, big headed too.
