Isn't it time Flinty went on holiday and gave us a break ?

Up to now I've been able to take or leave Flinty, but by the cringe, the woman is a nightmare. She never ever stops promoting herself.

As soon as a show begins, she kicks off with her ****** blog and how to contact her on twatter / arsebook. Then there's the laugh, or rather cackle - what an embarrassment.

Tonight at least Leslie on the Studio8 show declined to engage with her when she started on about one of her relatives (Isabelle) being the same name as an item, or Luna (the name of a dog apparently); then we were subjected to a stupid selfie taken when she had a ceiling collapse. Not forgetting the little show she put on when positioning herself between the 2 models and jumping up and down, reiterating again that she's only 5'4 (she only left out having hobbit feet!).

Seriously ? I can only think that Dale is the only presenter worth watching at the moment.

It is always time Debbie went on holiday, in my view.

She takes the proverbial... I have never understood how she gets away with promoting herself and her side gig businesses all the time on her blog and on broadcast hours.

Until a few months ago she didn't bother me, I found her amusing. My tolerance has obviously expired because all of a sudden she really irritates me.

That false laugh, or should I say cackle, is a total embarrassment as is hard selling, self promoting, out for all she can get, Fibby Flint. I also find Plastic Fantastic Dale Franklin so false, he'd make a great used car salesman though with his "I'll be honest" tag line, but never is. I can only hop on and off QVC now, the falseness, the cheesiness and down right lies are just too much.

re dale it was beyond hilarious when kelly hoppen was arranging some small vases and kelly said something like " i know you think i'm being stupid" and she was deadly serious it really was embarrassing. now for debbie flint. i don't think she's as common as she makes out. its a facade to keep her fake book mates on side. she's their chums not really a presenter

When someone says "trust me", " believe me", "I'll be honest" and other such phrases, I'm expecting a whopper of an untruth!!! It's a warning people who have a proven record of lying can't help but utter. You hear it all the time from disreputable sellers on telly and in real life. Once you notice it, you can spot it again and again.

I was flicking through channels last night and caught her on doing the TSV. She had this totally awful top on which made her look very short and wide. I thought why aren't you off doing your body blading and writing books on how bad sugar is and how you cut it from your life.

Never mind a holiday she should be down at her guest house running it full time and doing Channel 4 Four in a Bed.

OMG!!!! What's the betting she's already applied? :mysmilie_11:

You could put Gucci on her and she'd make it look like she's about to start cleaning the oven. Bet every diehard that bought any one of her editions of "When The Fat Lady Slims" book are kicking themselves now, knowing it had the opposite effect and fattening DFs bank account.

What is it with this need to be noticed, followed on social media, visited? Why invite people to visit you at a shop where you work? The last thing I would do if I worked in the media would be to share my address, where/when I could be found in a shop or where I walked my dogs. Debbie really must stop this, it is dangerous and makes me feel very uncomfortable.

Last night she was touting some hideous non-cotton bedclothes alongside a (upper middle class female, of course) guest. Her sales patter smacked of desperation. In the hour before that she was touting some beauty products and suddenly said to the guest: "Oooh was that me 10 years ago?" and started scrolling on her iPad - which I thought was incredibly rude.
I think the Pound Shop Jackie Collins should take a permanent break on her "retreat" down in Devon where she can spend her days writing trashy novels to foist upon the members her congratulatory and huggy-huggy harem,in whose eyes can do no wrong.

I can feel her next novel coming on:

"OK good job girls!" said aerobics instructor Pam as the hour of hi-energy 80s faded. As the music wound down, so did the room of 20-something women all bedizened in figure-hugging spandex jumpsuits in varying pastel shades, showing off the lean, curvaceous contours of the wearers. Fiona wiped the sweatband round her head and looked up as a male voice said: "Hi!"

It was Dan. "Hi!" said Fiona, a little out of breath. "Sorry I'm a little sweaty!"
"Sweat's just God's way of telling you you're becoming more beautiful," said Dan. Suddenly they both realised they were looking at each other's nether regions, and they burst out laughing. The room was awash with the pheromones of several women, but it was hers that attracted him most.

Fiona looked into his dark eyes. His chiselled Italian looks made her weak at the knees.

"You know what I wanna do?" he said, tersely. "Strut!" And out they went.

I have news for you ....

Lovely news for her daughter but I've no doubt we'll be subjected to even more non-stop "granny" references again and the fact that the children won't be on social media. A likely story!

The woman's insufferable. As for finding a man, she'll have to get her arse off social media first and actually socialise in the real world and interact face to face, saying that, she's got more chance of finding a man than I have marrying Ryan Reynolds while having an affair with Johnny Depp........(sigh!). :mysmilie_17:

For me, it was time Flinty went on holiday with a one-way ticket in about 1990.

That said, I have to give her credit for something (I know, unbelievable!) - the other night, at the end of the Skinsense TSV launch hour, she used the cleanser being presented to remove all her make-up live on air. I would never do that in public, never mind on tv. Obviously, I watched that on mute.

Can’t bear her.

Can you imagine being the OTHER grandparents of these new babies ????? I bet there is plenty of eye-rolling and smiles through gritted teeth when they meet. The woman has no class or sophistication, and she'd have blokes running for the hills once they heard the 'cackle' !

I agree, and she's got one heck of job on hers hands, trying to track down the most desperate man in Britain.
