Does anyone actually like Zoe Ball?
Dave Thomas
don't know anyone who actually likes Zoe Ball! For our part, we find her an
annoying, unfunny, moron who suddenly can't pronounce "S". Does anyone
feel the same way, or does anyone actually like her?
I apoligise if this has been done before, but I'm not a regular on this
newsgroup.

but I personally still listen to her in the mornings coz at least she wakes
me up! Plus a lot of the stuff she does raises a smile and it was actually
quite embarrassing guffawing on the bus on the way to school when it was Kev
and Zoe.
It's not the best breakfast show I've heard but I can put up with it enough
to listen in every day. Plus Zoe herself isn't that bad. I got the
impression of a kind lady on TFI this Friday. :-)
Corkster (but then again I'm like that.)

No, nobody has ever complained about Zoe on this newsgroup.

breakfast show.....good at waking me up and raising smiles and titters...

Sometimes I find ZB a bit tedious. However, then I look at the alternatives:-
Evans: Idiot who can't come up with anything remotely funny unless he steals it
off someone else, or gets a huge team of writers to work on it, or it involves
a caller to the show, or it's an email/fax/phonecall to the show containing
someone elses humour.
Vaughan/Brook: Vaughan is CH4s prized anchorman, but his humour relies on quick
thinking, and the supporting production crew aren't nearly fast enough. Brook
just sits there, pretends to understand, and hopes that all the male audience
will just drool rather than listen to her. Which they do.
Atlantic 252: Longwave being Longwave, there isn't a hope of me receiving this
in the mornings. And I prefer my radio to be more music and chat than
advertising, not the other way round.
So, in balance, she may sometimes be lacking in quality humour, but at least
most of the ideas on her show are original, her production crew have enough
gossip between them to make for interesting listening, she plays good records,
and she's always happy every morning (which is a good start when you have a
depressingly bad day to look forward to).
I'll stick with ZB if that's OK with you. :o)

You forgot one:
Wogan - 60 year old Irishman happy to play the butt of his listener's jokes.
Most of show's material comes from the inventiveness of the audience's faux
stupidity. Banter between him & producer, newsreader and traffic person is
one of equals, not sycophants. Playlist has included Beth Orton, Beck, Blur
& Sugar Ray.
Scary thing is that I'm not the only person under 30 to listen to Radio 2 on
weekday mornings.

I didn't mind her crying on the last "Live & Kicking" but most of the time
she acts like a squirrel. I tried to watch her on TGIF, just to see her in
a different light, but she was such a phoney baloney I had to turn it off
immediately.
I think she's probably better now than when she first started on Radio 1.
The real question is what's all that Jamie Theakston nonsense on Sunday
afternoons? Any takers?

Yeah, I'm amazed at the priority that the "lad mags" put on looks over
intelligence and personality, on the basis of Brook's BB appearances I'd have
nothing to do with her.

I hate to be my cynical self sometimes, but I can't see them lasting too
long. Soon Norman/Quentin will wake up to the bleak reality of having
proposed to the most bland and humourless woman in the country. As much as I
wish them happiness, he's not not exactly known for his wise choice of
wives. And he seems like a fairly intelligent, genuine person. Oh well.
Opposites attract!

As Chris Moyles once remarked, as the new cool kid on the block (and
possibly 'the saviour of pre-top 40 Sundays'), Theakston is currently
getting his boots licked to shiny perfection and seems to be getting all the
attention and the celebrity interviews. Although I get the feeling that the
fat one is green with envy, he has a point. I personally don't think too
much of JT, he's just there, and, as for all Radio 1 daytime DJs (except
M&L), when I get sick of him, I just switch the radio off. :-)

Jamie theakston is quite possibly the worst and most annoying person on the
radio, ever. He is not funny, not smart, or clever. He thinks he is soooo
funny. And he sucks up to his "celebrity callers". Oh, thats a good idea
for a show. not. And we all believe its on his answering machine, yeah so
so convincing. He thinks he's still on L&K, i wish he was, and zoe too so
then they wouldn't be on the radio.

No, that's Zoe Ball!
