The first item I saw yesterday afternoon on Sky news under the banner “breaking news” was that Jonathan Ross was quitting the BBC, for goodness sake with all that is going on in the world is that worthy of being called news important enough to merit the breaking news banner, I would have thought the end “and finally “ section would have been more appropriate.
I am not a Ross fan, I don’t find him remotely funny at all and his interviewing style is pathetic and crude, filled with sexual innuendo and juvenile quips inevitably involving sexual organs.
Most people only watched the show for the guests rather than him because he occasionally had worthwhile guests though he never gave them a chance to speak when he wasn’t stuck up their backsides fawning over them like a love struck teenager (this applied to male as well as female guests).
Usually he would be boring us with his weekly anecdote about having sex with his wife or a story about one of his ridiculously named kids, for example “Apricot tea towel has started developing breasts so I am taking her bra shopping tomorrow” I for one could have done without that snippet. incidentally “Apricot tea towel” is the name of his eldest girl, most probably, I couldn’t be bothered to look her actual name up.
Its a mystery to me why the BBC ever put him on such a huge deal, but I suppose its easy to be generous when you are spending other peoples money, in this case ours the TV licence fee payer, Ross was on a reported six million pound a year deal, nice work if you can get it.
Never has so little talented a person received such a large reward, he began every sentence with the word “listen” as if without that instruction the viewer would “not Listen” him and Davina McCall obviously learned their craft at the same school, she is equally annoying.
Now if we can just get Davina of air to 2010 could be a good year.
