Yikes!
So, who would you like to see as a female presenter? Must admit I am struggling there. Sandi Toksvig? Perhaps a series of different presenters but then there's the time it takes to settle in to what can't be an easy job. It's easier to say who I wouldn't want! Apart from Susie the recent contestant I will have to get back to you on that one. Meanwhile, Nick is doing all right for now.

It's the first time I have watched this week but the guest in dictionary corner is really irritating me now. Who is he?

I really like Doctor Phil (Hammond) and he's one of my favourite guests. I saw him in his recent tour and would recommend anyone seeing him live.
Sorry I just found him irritating but horses for courses, perhaps I caught him on a bad day either for me or him

I liked him at first, went on to finding him irritating and now I like him again. I don't like the banter about Nick's alleged hypochondria and found all that fast forwardable. Is that what annoyed you too?

The guests I don't like are most actors and newsreaders, I just find them boring especially when they tell yet another story about being mistaken for someone else.Tim Vine on next week - I like him. |

I can't actually put my finger on it, he just irritated me, perhaps it was the eager puppy look and going on about all things medical although as he is a Doctor, I suppose that is natural or perhaps I am just a mardy old cow

You wouldn't like his show then because it's mostly about that.

I quite like Doctor Phil. Although I'm not sure I'd want him to be my GP, and then have my medical condition written into his next show

I read that book, I quite enjoyed it. Not seen it in my library since though, must reserve it.
And I won't be enjoying Countdown this week, Tim Vine is the dictionary corner guest. I find him so tedious and boring, his jokes aren't funny at all. How he is related to Jeremy Vine I don't know. |

I was
out of the room when it was on today, and all I could hear was two dull, flat and boring voices, when I returned the contestants matched the voices. |

I've been out of touch with Countdown lately. Have Rick Wakeman or Ken Bruce been on since Nick started?
Thanks |

I will have to get back to you on that one. Meanwhile, Nick is doing all right for now.


. The guests I don't like are most actors and newsreaders, I just find them boring especially when they tell yet another story about being mistaken for someone else.
