Trevor Brooking care takered West Ham between Glen Roeder and Alan Pardew. The team won 9 of 14 games under his leadership, and we'd've all been overjoyed had he chosen to stay as manager. He's currently a non executive member of the board and a Sir to boot.

Incidentally, he hails from my home town of Barking.

Despise those Ocean Finance Ads.

"Normal" people (very shallow gene pool) extolling the virtues of being in debt for the rest of your life.

Forget the money-saving crime, the people are shocking!!

Don't know what's worse, the patronising frumpy woman in the suit or the whingers who have obviously got into debt by eating all the pies! Glad I have a widescreen telly.

On the bright side, makes me feel both good with money and quite thin!

I'm referring to the bloke doing the Mastercard adverts - "Priceless" and "For everything else there's....".
I just can't stand his arrogant, snobbish and pompous voice.

That's Jack Davenport of 'Coupling' fame (he played Steve). I dont think he sounds arrogant snobbish or pompous. Granted, he is particularly well spoken (but surely that is a good thing even in this day and age and I cant believe that you find it annoying) and advertising requires a certain self-assuredness!

Look at it this way: at least he doesnt sing with his mouth full. Then again, you cant please everyone all of the time!

I knew SOMEBODY would fail to spot my ironic "lol".....................as in "wonder what he's doing now, lol"

Things I hate on TV

Anything with "celebrity" in the title, who are these saddos ? who even cares?
Big Brother, never watched it & I don't intend to.
Heartbeat..totally unrealistic & PC obviously written by people who didn't live through the sixties.
The frog of course
The KFC ad, singing with mouth full, makes me feel ill.
The 118118 ad which has a made-up word in it can you spot it?
Eastenders, just too much shouting.
The Bill too confusing for me.

What I like on TV

Men behaving badly
Rising Damp The old one's are the best:D
Only fools & horses
Fawlty Towers

Morse
Cracker
