It is which ever pair of smug t***s happen to be sitting on the Breakfast Time sofa when I turn the TV on in the morning!

The most irritating person on TV as long as Nick Knowles is still appearing.

you've got to factor in Anne Robinson.

the most irritating person on The One Show - hello Gyles, Christine (the not so easy on the eye gardner one) and Dom.

just cos he looks like The Hood off Thunderbirds n he was, like, well scary. I did see Nick Knowles crossing the road in Islington once and consider not braking.

My vote is for anyone whose ever been in Hollyoaks

.. that we're excluding anyone who has ever presented Top Gear in the interests of opening up the debate?

... and raise you with Justin Lee Collins. Hardeep Singh Kohli doesn't come close to him in terms of sheer annoyance.

However nothing can annoy me today as I now have a ticket to see Simon Amstell, officially the least annoying person on the telly, doing his stand up and it only cost £6. Selling tickets that cheap has put him even higher in my estimation than before...

is rather like overcooking a turd.

However Nick Knowles manages to be smug, amateur and arrogant at the same time (which is a good trick but poor entertainment) and is worse.

Davina Macall is the TV equivalent of Heat magazine and is worse.

Bill Oddie is just embarrassing for me (god knows what his family must think) and is worse also.

But top prize goes to the strangely addicted to being ubiquitous form of Andrew Lloyd-Webber. His one defining talent seems to be the only thing he doesn't do on any of these shows.

certainly took the award for tonight. "We've given £20m to charity, we don't ask people to give, we just give ourselves" followed by "we were born into poverty, dinner consisted of a few breadcrumbs". Give it a break Robin.

Lee already got in with Bill Oddie.

Absolutely agree. Just not funny.

those fright queens give me the chills. Dreadful, just dreadful. Take a look in the bloody mirror before criticizing how everyone else looks you shameless old bags...

and i can't fault any of the choices. Would it be easier if we say 'Everyone on TV is annoying except.....'?

Has anyone else noticed and celebrated the fact that ghastly colon-fetishist Gillian McKeith seems to have been relocated to the where-are-they-now file?

when she was on his show and she'd asked him for stool sample and he bought out this tupperware box. She was baulking at the expected poo smell until he informed her it was made from mashed up Mars Bar.

... keeps popping up on The One Show. Cannot enunciate clearly, ridiculous posh voice, hair like straw and just generallly annoying. I have to leave the room.

While I can understand the egos of Singh Kohli, Oddie, Lee Collins, et al preclude any form of self awareness how, come the TV bosses don't twig just how unpopular these 'personalities' are? To continue their contracts when half of the viewers are cringing is surely self defeating. Are they tied into unbreakable deals, do they never watch their own prrogrammes or do they (shudder) rely on the curse of creativity, focus groups?

Agree about Kohli and Oddie, but for me the most annoying of them all is Nicky Campbell - for the love of god he is the most smug twat since Giles Brandreth gave birth to his own woolly jumper!

It may seem harsh (or maybe not) but all these smugger than smug TV personalities should try the Mark Speight route of stardom in my opinion - i'm fed of seeing TV presenters who think that they are above the normal person in the street (probably quite literally a true saying now since reposessions are the current fashion!) - JEREMY KYLE ARE YOU LISTENING, DIE DIE DIE!!

Ooh, i'm all acerbic with this bile now, think i need to calm down and read the Daily Mail... WHAT, a black president.. not on my nelly.. whats his world coming to?*

*note: ironic tone there, just incase you couldnt guess!

Nasty, nasty exploiter of the poor, stupid and grieving. Has this kind of abuse been banned yet?

And Derren Brown, scourge of the above; he's good, he's clever, he's funny, but somehow still so punchable.

An expert on cars, weight management, money saving tips, consumer advice, homes under hammers and car boot fairs.

Obnoxiously self righteous in the extreme and looks like Dungeonmaster from Dungeons and Dragons as casted by Guy Ritchie.

Enough - remove from our screens!

Blatant exploitation of the gullible.

In a completely different area of tv, can I also add Davina M. Where's the talent?

...back this Friday with the most irritating actor in Hollywood on his couch.

... I once saw him interviewed by Matthew Sweet on an edition of The Culture Show. Rarely have I seen a look of such pure loathing as was on Mr Sweet's during that encounter. Can we add that pillock John Edwards as well? Mainly because my Mum really believes he can talk to the dead and all of my appeals to reason fall on deaf ears.

Can I say though, I like JR when he's on the radio? I am actually looking forward to hearing him on Saturday again...

There are sooo many channels now that I'm quite surprised that anybody watches people that irritate them. I think I've only been subjected to Bill Oddie about 3 times in the past 10 years - he was a bit irritating but not on screen long enough to get worked up about. I've only seen Justin Lee Collins on his own shows so he's very easy to avoid. I've never heard of Hardeep Singh Kohli so he can't be that hard to avoid either. I thought I watched a lot of television but perhaps not!

but only because she seems to be on Breakfast news more that the presenters.
I'd go for Bill Oddie, and not just because he gets to spend lots of time with Kate Humble. Well, maybe just a bit.

Can I nominate Michael McIntyre?

The smug, simpering, nodding, unfunny, annoying twat!

Larry Grayson without the devastatingly original wit.

Never trust a man with chin fluff.

Sorry, probably a lovely lady but I can't cope with those eyes.

And Nigella Lawson's affectation of being a 'cheat' or a lazy cook.

And Gary Rhodes - the self conscious pronuciation of every T and S.

And Trinny and Susannah - self-appointed saviours of womankind who do nothing but perpetuate the myth that your mental and emotional well-being are directly related to how you look and a spot of 'retail therapy'. Got that off my chest.

...aarrrgghh.

Has mentioned Graham Norton or Piers Morgan. I guess we can only be thankful that the Chris's (Moyles and Evans) are no longer part of our evening schedules.

Does anyone like them?
