yvonne Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I must say, I really like him, I know there are moments of childishness, but generally I find him likeable, knowledgeable and a great presenter (on Celebrity Apprentice a few years ago, he was fantastic - as was Alastair Campbell, by the way). However, I did find his first ITV show very disappointing - apart from Adele, the guests were hardly scintillating and the format a poor relation of the BBC version. Do hope it improves - what did other people think ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 A bit flat but promising. I'd never heard Lewis Hamilton speak before, he seemed like a nice chap though. Adele sounded a bit rough but then I've read she's pulled out of two gigs with a cold & chest infection so I'm not surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I love Rossy,always have,always will. Like you I though the show was a tad flat (& WHERE were 4 Poofs & a Piano???),but reckon it will pick up. I think he is a huge talent,a super presenter,& from what I know of him,a lovely man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I love Adele Always makes me laugh when she gets interviewed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Oh I missed it. I really miss him on tv and on the radio show on R2 on a saturday morning. I shall keep a look out for him. I loved his way of interviewing, yes he sailed very close to the wind sometimes but he was always entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 After the Andrew Sachs episode I would rather sit and stare at a blank screen than watch either Jonathon Ross or Russell Brand It wasn't funny and it wasn't clever just sad and sick and deeply upsetting for the family I can't believe that he is still paid such vast sums of money and is even still allowed to broadcast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squiffs Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I love Wossy. His show with Russell Brand was pre-recorded, and someone on the production team (well, all of the production team) seem to have escaped any backlash from putting that part of the show out. Funny, that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Well said,Squiffs. I know it was probably an ill advised piece to broadcast,but WAY too much was made over that incident On a happier note,The Chilli Peppers are playing on next weeks show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinsk Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I like him too and always found the BBC show funny. The Friday ITV one was definitely flat and I hated the backdrop, all those lights were just distracting and made watching quite hard. I fell asleep before he'd even finished interviewing Adele. Lets hope it gets better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yvonne Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 Well, number 2 was a bit better I thought (except the Saturdays, words fail me - and them it seems). Glad the awful group who were there during the first episode didn't appear again. Benedict Cumberbatch and the Chilli Peppers were great. Wossy still seems a bit stilted - shame he lost the long hair and beard he had been growing - he looked a lot more comfortable and individual like that recently now he's a bit older.
