Samantha ' thick as a' Brick is at it again:(

[NOX]

The deluded nightmare that is Samantha Brick has once again ( sadly) put pen to paper and is now having a go at lovely, interesting Mary Beard because she doesn't cnsider her attractive enough apparently. She's still blind to how horrifically vile and shallow she really is. Mind you the Daily Mail are onto a winner with her, everyone's going to read it just because she's possibly the most universally loathed woman in Britain.

the sort of people who would switch off a tv show because of the way the presenter looks are not really the sort of people MB's show will appeal to anyway - so they would not be watching to begin with

people watch shows like MS's because of the subject. she is not presenting miss world or some dollybird quiz show...

very true nox

its not like shes hidious - just because she has not died her hair and coiffered it into a shape, an slapped on makeup does not make her ugly!

there was a thread on here a while ago and some were of the opinion that older ladies should not have long hair ... maybe this is something to do with it


as i said any audience who would switch off are not the market for this show anyway

i only posted this as a way of indicating though it's not the type of viewing figures you get for popular soaps, in consideration i think that it did very well in the viewing stakes.

Meet the Romans with Mary Beard also concluded, at 9pm on BBC2. The three-part Lion Television series has looked at the personal lives of the ordinary inhabitants of ancient Rome, in the company of classicist Mary Beard. The final programme’s audience of 1.9m (8.4%) gave a Performance Index of 139.7, and brought the series average to 1.8m (7.5%).

What?

Did their attention to their appearance hinder? <br/> <br/> Dr Brian Cox <br/> Dr Jim Khalil <br/> Professor Robert Winston <br/> or indeed <br/> Dr Alice Roberts <br/> Dr Miriam Stoppard <br/> <br/> em10 <br/> <br/> no, so why should it Mary Beard. In answer it doesn't[i


So the presenters who are intelligent and qualified were not hindered by them also paying attention to how they look ...

[i]so why should it Mary Beard?]

Isn't the point of this thread that she isn't over-bothered about her appearance?

Somebody is confused here and i'm pretty sure it isn't me.

Nox - I agree.

as i said much earlier, I think Mary Beard is excellent and we should see a variety of presenter types on the screen anyway.

Still can’t understand why anyone is remotely interested in what she thinks. She’s an untalented, publicity seeking nobody.

Mary Beard isn't bothered, so why should samantha brick or indeed anyone be. The programmes are interesting, end of story.
