Madeley is ok as a presenter but personally i've always found him too vain. Twice in the space of a few minutes he made reference to his age which smacked of "look at me, i'm almost 60, don't i look beautiful".”
Yes, Richard does interject too, but, imo, Matthew has a way of doing it that leaves stuttery "ummm, ummm, ummm" people like Suzi and Liz McLarnon taking even longer to get through their sentences.
With only allocating a few minutes to topics, they often have an "and finally", shallow discussion for one of the segments.
Banning the use of phrases like "lose two dress sizes" and "bikini body" is pointless if your magazine still carries the story of how every pregnant female celeb lost her baby weight in X amount of weeks.
Add that to heavily retouched pictures showing perfection not even attained by models themselves, or worse, unretouched photos pointing out dimpled thighs or sagging boobs.
