Davina Mccall

Did anyone see the half-page piece about Ms. McCall in the Mail?

The Mail is somewhat unhealthily obsessed with women it sees as 'toned' or 'ripped', it's online sidebar features dozens of them every day - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/index.html

so it was thrilled to show a large picture of Ms McCall in a bikini showing her 'toned abs' blah blah blah.

The 'news piece' concerned Ms McCall's weepy social media message about 'lonliness' over Christmas and her fans' concern for her well-being.

So why does the Mail devote a half-page of its newspaper to a shouty TV presenter who looks like a nylon bag full of spanners? Because (and it mentions it of course!) she has a new exercise DVD on release that day!!!

We really do get the media we deserve.

What does qualify something as a "newspaper" out of interest? They don't have to be accurate, factual or relevant...?

What about the Guardian, Tilly?

better?

[Mamyalynne]

Sorry.

If she is content with herself that's all that matters.

[andy-hughes]

ummm - //You let yourself down sometimes, Andy. //

No argument there - care to explain what I have done to povoke that observation?

[Tilly2]

Yes, I like that, Talbot. Thank you. :-)

[Georgiesmum]

We love you Andy, so whatever you are supposed to be doing wrong, keep doing it!
Happy New Year to one and all.

[-Talbot-]

We?

[ummmm]

The manner in which you describe people.

Her nose looks fine to me - suits her face

[Georgiesmum]

My personal opinion is I thing Davina has gone too far now. She doesnt look a healthy weight at all.

[ummmm]

That photo isn't new.

[andy-hughes]

ummm - // The manner in which you describe people. //

Is that all? I thought it was something serious!!

I describe people as they appear to me - as does everyone else on here. Quite how that means I 'let myself down' - a phrase I have not heard since I left school and since my father died, I have no idea.

Thanks xx

And the same to everyone here.

We speak as we find in Stoke, Andy. :-)

I recall having a reply removed regarding one of your posts which was practically pornographic as you waxed about some bird or other who was to your particular taste.

You're no different to The Mail sidebar really apart from the smaller circulation.

[ummmm]

He lets himself down in that way too.

Saw the photo.Most unflattering. I agree with andy. Not a pretty sight - in fact disturbing to look at. But then she has a dvd for sale!

[Ellipsis]

So why does andy-hughes devote a question on AnswerBank to Davina McCall? So he can describe her as (in his opinion) a shouty TV presenter who looks like a nylon bag full of spanners. Classy.

[ummmm]

It is rather strange.

Same here, pygriffo.
She doesn't float my boat, but then again she never has.
