    Dont worry - I thought the coat was naff too. And part of the professionalism of the job is to have clothes that look good but dont detract from what you're saying. My coat was a bit distracting because it didnt look right. If people spend 30 seconds looking at the coat then they miss the content and that's a problem.

    Interestingly its for this reason news readers (Im mainly talking about female) are often well presentedl good looking and well dressed. But not super-hot and super glam. Its one of the reasons long hair is often banned in some news rooms as it can 'sex up' the look and that's distracting.

    it reminds me of mr divadee getting distracted on Strictly Come Dancing I can tell ya he doesnt watch it for the dance content!!! Apparently its Kellys Brooks wardrobes designer then for her dresses being to distracting :rotfl:
  • Comments about coat are spot on - it was a bit distracting, reminded me a bit of Arfur Daly! Good to hear the reason why - this 2-way feedback is fab. Show was great tonight! Things are settling down. Don't forget about us folk in Norn Iron though! (Reclaiming item). Looking forward to next week's show. Good luck!

    I didnt think it was naff, you looked a bit like a second hand car dealer/Arthur Daley type character!

    Cheeky chappie!

    My first thoughts were that Martin looked like he was a warehouseman :D Sorry Martin, I'm sure its lovely in real life.
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.

    If you want to be less distracting your going to have to keep the top button on that shirt done up! Can't stop looking at your chest hair and I don't think I am the only one!:rotfl:

    Know what you mean, froggy girl - sexy or what!!!

    :money: I am sorry Martin but I thought you looked like a removal man:D

    But as it was cold and wet, I will let you off!:A
