I find him immensely irritating, and his jokey style and 'confidential

don't watch), maybe we'll see less of him elsewhere :-)

I have to admit he also irritates me, he is so over exposed and I see
him popping up all over the place as an expert on just about
everything, mind you we have a few on group, from time to time, who
think they know it all :-)

I don't think he can be blamed for being good at several things and
popular! *You have to make a living when you can! *But I have to admi
t,
also, that we haven't seen him much doing anything else, so haven't
suffered 'Titchmarsh fatigue'!

He reminds me of a certain poster, I won't say which group as I'm sure
you will get the connection :-) It's his always having an answer for
everything, now who does this remind you of? No, don't say it :-)
Judith
Not I. I'd rather we kept it nice and peaceful.
