Southern TV News/weather presenters

[Stinkers Bridge]

Anybody got any opinions on the best and worst presenters that we had/have on Southern/TVS/Meridian television?

Mike Debens always got on my goat a bit. I heard a story once that one of my Mum's work colleague's met him on a cross channel ferry and he was really obnoxious and above himself.

Is Ron Lobeck still alive and kicking?

Fred Dineage - Already covered in another thread = top class clunt.

Ditto = Steggall


Not forgetting the fabulous ladies that we have enjoyed/endured - including Natasha Kaplinski, Kathy Tayler, Kate Garraway, Sue Kinnear, Liz Wickham....

... Ah the memories

Chris Peacock allways made me chuckle

I can't believe that Andy Steggall now works for Sky Sports News.

Trevor 'The Weather' Baker. He did the sport on Southern.

I used to quite fancy Sue Kinnear and saw her at the Goldstone for that boycotted Mansfield match reporting.

I also recall with with fondness, the short spell Alison Holloway did with Meridian. A former wife of drink driving, wife beating, rascist Jim 'Nick Nick' Davidson nonetheless.

I am also a fan of Gemma Humphries.

David Bobin is probably the best sports reporter Meridian have ever had. Not surprised to see Sky poach him.

I forgot to mention Lloyd Bracey. Never really struck me as the sort of bloke you want standing along side you when it went off, and you were going toe to toe with the Lye Green Elite.

I can't believe that Andy Steggall now works for Sky Sports News.

As does David Bobin another ex local presenter.

ron lobeck = legend

Geoff Clarke, on the other hand, is/was a big fat FUCKER.

Is that the bearded Gills fan who jumped ship from Meridian to BBC? Its such a shame when presenter's agents tout them around to the highest bidder. It really has ruined the local news game

What about misty and murky Carl Tyler ?

 

[Tubby Mondays]

What about Phil Hornby - talk about pensioner trapped in a young mans body!

 

[Stinkers Bridge]

What about misty and murky Carl Tyler ?

Carl Tyler always seemed to me to be trying just a bit too hard to step out of Ron Lobeck's shadow. The exaggerated hand movements, the over EMPHASISED words etc.

Not bad for a old fella, but just needed to calm down a bit.

Who was that other weather bloke that sounded petrified - was his name Baz Watkiss or something like that?

 

[Parson Henry]

Jack Hargreaves. Top dog in that kennel.

 

[Tubby Mondays]

I used to like Jenny Hull as well, but she was on BBC South today. She was little more than a dwarf and everyday seemed to be a bad hair day, but she would have got some Tubby loving, brewers drewp allowing.

What a theme tune!!!

 

[The Large One]

Geoff Clarke, on the other hand, is/was a big fat FUCKER.

He was the total wanker responsible for the 'Goodbye Goldstone' stitch up. Tosser.

Kaddy Lee-Preston on BBC south-east, a great reason to check the local weather every day IMHO.

Couldn't agree more. She's even better in the flesh though

I dont think anyone but a fool would cast doubt on the talents of Kaddy, one thing I miss about working in Tunbridge Wells is the sightings of her around the town.
