Walsh and Whitmore are like little kids I've stopped watching it's getting to much like a Nursery school and the bloke with the gnashers just isn't funny.
I agree. I've tried to watch it a few times now, and just given up. It could be a really good show with decent presenters.

I liked it enough during the Mark Durden (sp?) Smith years, also thought Caroline Flack was a decent host alongside the comedian she had with her.

Typing Everything In Capital Letters Is Annoying And Makes Typing Quite Harder. Stop.
Is this meant to be ironic?

I don't get why everyone on this forum hates Joe Swash, everytime he talks something funny comes out of his mouth.
I think Swash and Whittmore are brilliant, I would rather watch their show than the 'real' one as it is really great entertainment. Rob I can leave as he is pretty unfunny most of the time but occasionally hysterical.

My pet hate is getting stupid people from the GBP on the phone asking inane questions - why can;t they pick the coherent callers with something sensible to ask?

The best thing to do is to record the show and forward through the irritating bits with Laura and Rob. I am sick to death of the "joke" about there exclusive clips which stupid Laura keeps shouting and rolling her eyes at about 3 times per episode. Also Russell Kane was much better than Rob

Can't stand Joe Swash nor Rob. They come accross as being as thick as bricks, annoying and unfunny. Laura seems ok.
Guessing that Joe is kept on because the producers think that the public will think he's endearing, unpredictable and hilarious. If the public likes him then fair enough. It's just my subjective opinion that he's an irritating berk.

Don't like her but I cannot abide Joe Swash. Never have liked him, I hate his cheeky cockney chappy persona. Makes me want to put my foot through the TV.

I like Laura and Joe not fussed on Rob but he is better than the last comedian.

Rob is a funny guy usually, when he's on shows like 8 out of 10 Cats and such like, but on this he's been poor. I do like him though.

I have tried watching it but have now gave up. I can't stand the sight nor sound of Jo Swash. How many times on one show can he say " I fink "?

Will he EVER grow up and stop with his pathetic 'cheeky chappie' routine? I noticed he was still at the 'kissing' members of the crew. Does he honestly believe this is remotely funny?

Also the whole format of the show is so childish. Who do they think is watching it?

Give me TPT and Mark any day

Laura would do a much better job without the likes of Jo Swash and Beckett on her team.

Why do capital letters bother people so much?
Because it is typing equivalent of shouting, and who wants to be shouted at all the time? Unless of course their name is MEL...........................................

I was disappointed when flack first left but I have warmed to Laura and now I don't really like flack. I do still like Joe, he's my favourite out of the three, I think he's honest and doesn't hold back what he thinks of the celebs. I don't dislike Rob but I do dislike his 5 minute stand up that he does every show, bugs the life out of me
Totally agree. Could have written all of that myself.

I agree with everything above and I'd add Russell Kane to sit alongside Rob so they could ' bounce " off each other in a comedic way.

Laura is simply a stunner in the looks department , she's got everything . Personality , face and legs to die for . Yes she knows it , but so what.

The Russell Kane monologues were so appalling I could only watch them on FFW. The new comedian seems more at ease, Russell always looked embarrassed to be doing the crappy routines. This bunch I can't watch at all, I noticed Eammon Holmes was on an episode and that's all I've bothered with so far.

Why are they employing Joe Swash? Who is the target audience that find that routine, coupled with the cheese grater voice, satisfying?

I record the show, then immediately delete it
