I cannot understand why Richard Bacon keeps getting his talentless fizzog on telly.

He never had anything about him even before he hit the headlines as a druggie, now he's back again.

He has less talent than Tara Palmer Tokpkins & she's only any good at getting down for proper celebs or the influential IMO.

Anyone care to comment, elaborate or add their own unfathomable TV mystery? :huh:

I second that.

What I hate about him is the way he likes to hog the limelight (usually by making the person he's interviewing look inadequate or stupid), and when he DOESN'T get all the limelight, he quite clearly spits the dummy out.

I can't bear the man.

You are what you eat.

Funnily enough looking at other peoples stool samples was not my fave activity even when I was getting paid for it :gag:

I suspect he has friends in high places. The hole z list celebrity thing appears to work like that

He's got a good agent, that's all. Since the Big Breakfast got canelled (tw*ts) he's not had a good show yet, then again, neither has Johnny Vaughan or Kelly Brooks...

Wasn't there something in the papers ages back that said Gillian was not a proper doctor or something..

If thats the case, then I would be quite happy to tell her to shove her own fingers up her own arse, as she is not qualified to tell me how my **** looks on national TV and no amount of fake degrees purchased over the internet will ever accomplish that.

Hasn't Kelly Brookes had a succesful show in the US though?

She has a degree in Language and Linguistics from Edinburgh University.
She also has a Masters in International Relations from the University of Pennsylvania

She is a member of Nutritionalist association that has a dead cat on the books as well.

Her PhD is from the non-Accredited (i.e made up) American College of Natural Health.

She certainly has a skill in manipulating the credulous.

So, do you reckon she woke up one day and thought 'I know I'll pitch a show to channel 5 and make loads of dosh. I'll bully people into losing a barely noticable amount of weight but the highlight each week will be me looking at their poo and telling them how s*** it is......... Actually thats a bit high brow for 5, best to take it to 4.........'
