TV's top 5 tools

RedFormanFITA · 22-10-2013 4:44pm #1

Who are your top 5 tv tools? Obvious one's that spring to mind are such lumineres as Peter Andre (Supreme Tool Leader) followed by his second in command Martin King, then Ryan Tubridy, then Brendan O (Tool)' Carroll and Brendan O (Tool)' Conor, all men strangely enough. What is it about male tv tools that makes them tools?

giant_midget · 22-10-2013 4:46pm

Tim the toolman Taylor?

krudler · 22-10-2013 4:47pm

Sonic screwdriver

gramar · 22-10-2013 4:48pm

I was going to say that the remote control was a useful tool but now I see the type you're talking about.

MC Hammer maybe?

genuine leather · 22-10-2013 5:02pm

Bob the builder?

+1 Ryan the tool tubrity, his name comes up all the time in this type of thread, mmm i wonder why..

WindSock · 22-10-2013 5:04pm

The remote control has to be in at least the top 2.

Yeah, you're probably watching too much TV if you have a list of "TV people" you don't like

Don't think I have ever heard a female described as a "tool", its pretty much a male term for whatever reason, like bastard tends to be.

Eight Ball · 22-10-2013 5:20pm

Eamonn Dunphy

Kate Burely

Ryan Tubrity

Anyone involved in X factor

That fool on TV3 in the morning the camp guy

NuckingFacker · 22-10-2013 5:35pm

Jimmy Carr and his "jam it right up your crack you beller" "Laugh".

Ho Ho Ho Ho Haaaauuuuuggghhh.

Once you cop his fakey laugh that he uses more than the autocue, the desire to plunge a lorry into his head becomes almost irisistible.

Ho Ho Ho Ho Hoouuuaaaaagghhh.

Fack off. Tool.

DrumSteve · 22-10-2013 5:38pm

Thread needs more Tool. They are awesome.

apollo8 · 22-10-2013 5:41pm

Miriam O Callaghan she is insufferable! :mad:

And the thing is he's quite hard to avoid if you want to watch Rachel Riley or QI.

How the hell he's a millionaire from his 'comedy' baffles me.

He's always on "slaggey" sorts of programmes. How come no-ones gone- "Here Jimmy, how come you have a stupid, annoying, fake laugh? And why do you never, ever vary that stupid, fake, laugh? Are you a Tool?"

keith16 · 22-10-2013 5:51pm

Mark Lawrenson * 5

A man whose commentary is mind numbing and at times, outright bullying of players.

Once, upon hearing a player passed a late fitness test, he claimed the player should instead have underwent a "fatness" test.

Once described Paul Mc Shane of putting in a performance so bad, it was a "holocaust"

22-10-2013 5:54pm

Is Peter Andre still actually on TV?

With regards to Jimmy Carr's laugh

And when he's on QI he commands very little air-time because it requires spontaneous wit which he does not have.

Oh yeah, he looks like a ventriloquists' dummy too the prick.

SeaFields · 22-10-2013 6:02pm

Linda Martin and Ryan Tubridy. No one else even close to the high level of toolism these two possess.

The Kardashians are a workshop in the tool sence of the word.

theblaqueguy · 22-10-2013 6:45pm

Danny Dyer complete tool
Vinnie Jones his new show is terrible
Ryan Tubirdy he just annoys me
Piers Morgan he belongs in a toolbox
Gaz from geordie shore the ultimate tool

NuckingFacker · 22-10-2013 6:52pm

I also feel Ray D'arsey needs a mention in the category of "PC Spanners" and our own Gerald keane in the category " Lump Hammers acting the Wrench". No tool collection would be complete without them. And Amanda Brunker as the bag. A she tool? Rare.

Those knife ads have started many an argument between the fee-lay and fill-it camps.

Brendan Flowers · 23-10-2013 9:26am

What the f**k is the obsession with these types of threads? Are some people's lives so empty and meaningless that obsessing over and abusing these "celebs" makes you feel good about yourself?
