As far as presenters go she is one of the worst, in my opinion, and she seems to be such a sly two faced person as well. I'm no fan of the likes of Gemma Collins, I don't watch stuff like I'm A Celeb, but to see Lorraine sit on her perch like it's her God given right to criticise people really annoys me. Who does this woman think she is?

Don't get me started about all that fuss made recently celebrating Lorraine's 30 years on the job. It was so vomit inducing I avoided ITV for days.

What do the media see in this dreadful woman and how has she managed to survive so long and gain such important standing within the industry? I don't get how anyone can watch her show. I get the appeal of having something light and fluffy on in the mornings (BBC breakfast bores me rigid) but I can think of little more unappealing than Lorraine and her giggling schoolgirl routine.

The only good thing I can say about her is she does charity work, otherwise I wish she'd disappear.

She seems like a nice enough person to me from what I've seen of her over the years.

Your view of her seems a little OTT.

she's easily the worst presenter imo. you can't just asslick every person who comes on and tell them how great they are etc. not to mention she never hosts her own show. biggest fraud out there

Mercifully, neither she or her much lauded, 'boobies' are on my radar anymore.

LOL

I can't stand chav central itv morning / daytime so haven't seen her for years. I think the most severe thing you can say about her is she is irritating and how the hell has she managed to keep her cushy job so long.

I don't think she's horrid, but I do think she kisses the backsides of people she interviews though.

...before or after making sneaky little digs at them elsewhere.

She interviewed me 20 years ago. She was pleasant enough but lacked sincerity, making a pretty vacuous comment to me off-air. Her co-presenter, Mike Morris (R.I.P.), however, was absolutely lovely and remembered me at an event 8 years later, giving me a big hug and kiss.

On balance, though, I think she's okay. There's much worse out there.

I would love to have the holidays she gets lol. They could perhaps rename the show Lorraine/garraway show.

One thing I used to notice when I watched the show was she constantly slagged off EastEnders which is fine as everyone has their opinion etc but then when a star from the show was a guest she would gush about it only for the soap expert (whoever it was at the time) would return a week after the guest and she'd go back to slagging it off.

I can't stand her she is too nice and comes across as very fake. If I remember rightly from the press she charged a fee to be the emc of a charity event and I think that is out of order when she has enough cash as it is.

Lorraine "let me put some pink tint on my nose as it gets so brown through brown-nosing all the celebs" Kelly? The one who also goes "tee hee" at the slightest thing.

Horrible woman, who convinced me that watching BBC1 in the morning was a far, far better thing to do.

She's harmless. She's good at her job and I don't get all the vitriol, she's not a bad lass.

Actually you, or is that what someone else said?

I don't watch her shows, but from what I've seen, she seems a pleasant person.

I believe she does a lot of good work for Dunblane.

Me. Yeah. It was part of an eating disorders week and I'd written in. Next thing I got a call asking if I'd be willing to go down there and discuss as they'd been interested in the letter.

Once she was doing this item (I think it was dresses) and she was was saying how nice the one was and how bad the other was until the person she was interviewing disagreed with her and liked the other one but not the one she liked and she immanently switched her opinion around to agree with them.

She can't work full time because she needs to be at home in Scotland to wipe her now grown up daughters bum...

This made me laugh.

I've never liked her much, she comes across as fake and insincere. Also, that voice/accent combination is like nails down a blackboard. Excruitiating to listen to.

A very fake and insincere person who must have made a fortune out of the same act.

I don't like her at all. How has she kept that job after all these years?
