Ben Fogle Is A C+nt

[Pieface]

I watched Crufts and was struck by how professional he was as a presenter. He may be a posho, but I think he's a very versatile and talented presenter. Don't know how Dub came to his conclusions. He's very good on that Longleat programme too.

I cried watching Crufts last night. (the dogs helping humans bit)

I don't think he's very good live tbh - the bizarre fawning over the dogs and banging on about stealing them away etc etc. I know that comes with the territory on most animal programmes but it gets right on my nerves.

It does add to an already seriously odd show! Wtf is going on with the nauseating music selection? And crying Orang??? One of those dogs was nominated because it got lost.........got found again and was quite thin! Talk about scrabbling for a story.

I've seen Fogle do other, edited programmes and he was a good on those - and reading about him on Castaway and rowing the Atlantic I can't dismiss him as a *cunt* I'm afraid - the guy's done some pretty inspiring stuff. His presenting's fluff but the boy's got determination.

i'm not keen on fellas with super-posh accents. just a personal preference, i suppose but he does look a bit too foppish and like a mummy's boy for my liking. i prefer the kind of fella who looks like he'll headbutt you and nick yer wallet at the end of a date

god, i'm glad i missed this. i know I would be joining Orang in weeping openly

 

[Pieface]

<gives up>

 

[Orang Utan]

I'm not ashamed about weeping at blatantly manipulative segments like the one PieEye mentions.
Sad dog eyes always get to me - I'd make a rubbish dog owner - he'd be so fat

 

[Pieface]

Would you kill him with love?

 

[g force]

What do you expect he was a bleedin' picture editor at Tatler before he appeared on that shitty island programme when the BBC then decided he'd make a good posh boy for TV.

Him and that midget twat from Top Gear can both fuck right off my TV.

And he rowed across the Atlantic - twat

i am and he is

 

[Orang Utan]

Probably
(food love though, not love through my willy)

Edit: reply to PieEye

 

[nightowl]

Kill him in the face, but only after you've made him watch while you fuck his dog and then drive over it.

pmsl

 

[jayeola]

Hrm, that bloke Ben what's-his-face looks like prince thingy. Or maybe an older version.

 

[sam/phallocrat]

worth a squirt

 

[Orang Utan]

And he rowed across the Atlantic - twat

And why does rowing across the Atlantic make you a twat?

 

[g force]

Because everyone else gets a planes...no, just because he got more coverage than Diana Hoff - who in case you don't know did it single handed in 2000 at the age of 55

All because he's a pretty boy with a nice voice He was with an bloody olympic champion FFS, he should have made it across!

 

[Balbi]

Bender presenting crufts. Now that I would tune into

"I'm gonna start my own dog show, with blackjack and hookers.... ... ... in fact, forget the dog show!"

 

[tarannau]

It doesn't make you a twat or disqualify you from being the biggest twat in the world.

Unfortunately it's generally only the well off, well connected and poshly-spoken who have the time and luxury of being able to go off on such adventures. Which is why it's a little grating to hear certain folks wax lyrical about how difficult it was, whilst commentators continually fawn over their achievements as if they were the only possible men who could have achieved it.

Personally I'd like to see Fogle work for a year in the sanitary facility down Acre Lane, being paid minimum wage for cleaning turds and other unsavoury items off hospital sheets for 12 hours a day. I wouldn't want it televised mind, it's just a pleasant pipe dream...

 

[Stigmata]

Is it just me, or is Ben Fogle clearly the rightful king?

 

[lizardqueen]

It's just you. Ben Fogle is clearly a WANKER

 

[Dubversion]

It's just you. Ben Fogle is clearly a WANKER

i knew i could count on you

 

[Charlie Drake]

Ahhh you've all just a bunch o' snobs, you don't like him cos he's posh...I think he's a nice bloke!

 

[Dubversion]

Ahhh you've all just a bunch o' snobs, you don't like him cos he's posh...I think he's a nice bloke!

[Charlie Drake]

*stomps off in a huff*

excellent post

 

[King Biscuit Time]

He's an absolute fucking cunt.
I was sick enough of him before he went on his rowing across the atlantic jolly, and after a week of seeing him bleat on about it on every talk show in the world I'm ready to kill.

His girlfriend's fucking irritating as well.

It wasn't just folk like him that did it - an ex-con and his parole officer did it too ffs!

I don't know what the coverage of it was like but he's hardly out there in everyone's faces like a large proportion of the people hired to talk at us from the telly.

Anyway, I'm defending someone I'm ambivalent about really. But he is SHITE on the live stuff - maybe he likes the dogs a bit too much.....

Is she well known too?

 

[Jorum]

He did "animal park" as well.
He seems to have a niche expertise in that program for making stupid fucking statements constantly. For example talking about some stork type thing.
Zoo keeper: "..they eat seeds, meat"
ben: "wow, that's unusual for a bird, to eat meat"
zoo keeper (thinking) well if you ignore eagles, hawks, vultures, falcons, crows etc ...

And yesterday on crufts: "well we have with us (some bloke) with the winner (some dog) a Norweigen Elkhound". "So Elkhounds, what do they hunt then?"

Also during Animal Park he took valuable air-time away from Katie Humble, which is reason enough to hate him in my opinion.

 

[LilMissHissyFit]

I think hes gorgeous
I would, in an instant. I only used to watch castaway to see him

With all respect, whether he is gorgeousness or not is entirely seperate issue
It is entirely possible (and is in fact quite common) for someone to be both attractive and an annoying c*nt at the same time.

 

[LilMissHissyFit]

If I thought he was an annoying cunt I wouldnt be able to watch him
