So anyone who likes programmes you hate are simpletons are they? I can’t stand soap operas and reality shows but I don’t regard viewers of these shows as idiots. Not everyone has the same tastes as you.

Graham Norton ... now there's a character it's easy to dislike. When he had that red chair thing on his Friday night show, it highlighted the difference between the manner he fawned and OTTed on his celebrity guests and how he sneered and laughed disdainfully at the ordinary members of the public as he despatched them into the cellar. (The gist of the segment was to tell a personal story so interesting that you escaped being ejected from the chair but most he gleefully sent down).
Celebrities get a top deal compared with Joe Public from this sneering sniggerer. And anyway who likes a comedian who laughs at his own jokes - like Michael McIntyre? Now he's next on my list...
And so on to Michael McIntyre and his sugary show 'The Wheel' which is populated with B listers desperate for a bit of 'fun' publicity, (oh that Judi Love...)
McIntyre is the ultimate in smugness and was born with the kind of face that cries out for an implant, that implant being a solid fist in the mush.
And what is MM? Not really a comedian, is he? In fact, as far as I can see he has no talent whatsoever, just the ability to put on a smiling face that says 'I am a likeable bloke who's just here to please you all'.
On 'The Wheel' we have three contestants who are thrust into the eye of the camera from the bowels of the studio. Michael's job is to bring out their personality even if they haven't got one, and to extract a sob story which makes the audience glad that the money has gone to a worthy person. Well done, Michael.
