Good thread this.

 

A few I like... Jeff Stelling, Jason Mohammed & John Motson (Motson does the commentary so not sure if he counts, a real legend of the game though).

 

John Motson is absolutely shite, nothing worse than turning on MOTD to hear him absolutely butchering every player's name. 'Dulla' Alli being a prime example. Dreadful.

Jon Snow (Ch4) 

He went to uni with my old man and is a decent fella apparently.

I think she's pretty funny, and quite fit. She did that Travel Man with Richard Ayoade recently and came across as very likeable

Yeah, she's sharp and easy on the eye.

She's pretty good I think, although I like Amy Schumer as well, certainly one of the few female comedians these days thrust onto us by the BBC that would have made the grade anyway without quotas.

 

I'll go with Jeff Stelling, Michael Portillo, Chris Tarrant and Eamonn Homes, although I think Terry Wogan must be the nicest guy ever to be on screen.

You're joking, right? she's up there with Davina McCall as my 2 most hated tv personalities. both are incredibly irritating and nowhere near as funny as they think they are!

 

Claudia and Davina, along with Stacy Solomon, make up my Jewish fantasy foursome.

Pretty much everyone who had a recurring role in Blackadder seems very likeable,  Bill Bailey too.

Richard Osman seems like a genuinely nice bloke and an amusing tweeter also, aside from when he makes one of the many many references to having a brother in Suede. 

Alexander Armstrong is a lovely chap, met him at the Countryside festival.

My gut instinct says Phillip Schofield is the most likeable person on TV. I wouldn't trust Rick Stein with my daughter to be honest...

I've heard that Phillip Schofield is a right obnoxious ****. He also shits anywhere but in a toilet.

Good choice, forgot about armstrong.

No. She's always self-deprecating and can take a joke at her expense. That easily puts her above 96% of the people on tv. Admittedly she can be a bit hyper ...though nowhere near as bad as Davina McCall.

 

Think this thread is most interesting for revealing what qualities people consider "likeable". Katherine Ryan? :mellow:  ...well there goes western civilisation.

Robson Green off Extreme Fishing- the most enthusiastic presenter I have ever seen and he made fishing more fun that it should be.

Which one is he?

Portillo is a good call - and what a transformation, from one of the most unlikeable politicians to one of the most likeable presenters. Mind you, I'd be pretty likeable if someone paid me a wedge of cash to travel around the world visiting interesting places, having fun and chatting about it. He's usually got something interesting to say on This Week, too, whether or not I agree with it.

 

Evan Davis seems a nice chap and Newsnight has massively improved since likeable, analytical Evan replaced that unlikeable, blustering self-parody Paxman.

 

Alan Shearer is another man transformed on MOTD. I used to hate him being on, as he just spouted boring platitudes. Now, though, he speaks out and often has something interesting to say about football so I'm glad when he's on.

 

Tomas Schaffenacker: Always cheers me up when he does the weather. Seems like a cheerful bloke who likes a laugh, but presents the weather in a clear, interesting way.....even if he's not as physically appealing as the likes of curvy Louise Lear, curvy Carol Kirkwood or girl-next-door Helen Willetts (I always imagine her getting a bit tipsy and charmingly giggly over a couple of glasses of wine).

 

Davina McCall is probably not a likeable person at all, but I like to see her on-screen for reasons of pure lust (I have a thing for bold-as-brass curvy brunettes).
