Jay Rayner always comes across as decent. Giles Coren doesn't.

Agree with this, Rayner seems to be a more than decent bloke.

Giles Coren is one of the biggest silver-spoon, sneering nasty ****** anywhere in the media.

Grace Dent is the best example of a boderline boiler I have ever seen.

Giles is an objectionable c**t. Look up his weird fake twitter accounts and his frankly odd description of his young daughter's lips. He's a really weird bloke.

Yes. Rayner is a good lad. Coren is a horrible c-word, while his sister is one of the many loves of my life.

I think she's smart and funny and imagine she'd be exceptionally good fun to have a beer with. Boy Coren on the other hand...

I couldn't agree more about Dent, it's exactly what makes her a BB.

I saw GD on a sunday morning show recently and she sounded shitfaced.

I used to love her, too, I thought she was perfect.

But then she started doing that singing thing plus the entirely unfunny, nonsensical opening and closing monologues on Only Connect, and it was enough to put me off her.

I like Coren-Mitchell, but I don't like Only Connect. It's as if someone watched University Challenge and thought 'how can we make this even more smug?'

You're wrong. Only Connect is the best show on TV, possibly ever.

And what's more, this very fanzine was once a clue on it.

Was it you that wrote in to complain about the pretentiousness of using Greek letters?

She looks too scrawny, and just a bit too 'crystal meth' these days.
