In this month's issue of The Scoop, the staff & customer newsletter for Rocks and Gems, Steve Bennett says, "I've also had some specialised training sessions with all our presenters to really fine tune their presentations in line with the feedback a lot of you have given."
Excuse me? I can't see that one jot of the feedback given on this site has been taken on board. If anything, in the last few weeks the shouting and acting, the exaggerated facial expressions, the repetition, the immature presenting styles reminiscent of CBeebies on a bad day, have increased and, in many cases, made the channels unwatchable during certain presenter's stints. Do I even have to mention the constant bursting into tuneless singing, inbetween bouts of yelling, that make up the presentation 'skills' of Carol R? The rushing to the gallery to 'confirm' what Angeline has just been told, along with her near hysteria and ever increasing volume as the auctions, sorry, 'games' (grr) progress? And Ali D's haranguing and berating, along with the requisite shouting, all done in the manner of an irritating child woman?
Next time there's a specialised training session, for Gawd's sake, get Alan to do it, since he's the only one who could be said to have anything in the way of broadcasting skills, and he might just be able to get across the message that shouting does not keep people viewing - I SAY SHOUTING DOES NOT KEEP PEOPLE VIEWING...
