She has to be 1 of the most irritating people on TV, cannot stand the sight or sound of her. Good for her to do something as opposed to just asking for money but it does mean even more exposure

Blimey! Lots of hate out there!!
I am not keen on her presenting style but really see no reason to wish her ill.
She is raising money for charity; not drowning kittens.

Can't stand the woman but credit where it is due to her.

If you ever try anything similar, make sure you do us all a favour and get hit by a bus or something...
I'm sure I'll cope without your fawning appreciation.
Just shows how narrow your thinking is.
Whatever!
I get the sneaky feeling that that just might be a little unpopular as a fund raising event
I have never had much involvement with her. I have a vague idea who she is and what she does, but my only real ideas come from the impressions show.
However as above you have to admire what she is doing and give credit for it
However I will still not be donating to Sports Relief

When I put this post up I never gave a thought to how many people would dislike a person through what they see of them on TV, I must admit I do not watch much TV and I am even more unlikely to watch something Davina is on. This is not because I dislike Davina , hard to really as I have never met her or know much about her other than what I see on TV, but I ma not that interested in the sort of things she fronts.
However I put that aside and hope that she gets through this amazing challenge and raises a lot of money for many good causes. I also know she is a keen and fit cyclist that does more than us lot I imagine to get more bums on saddles.

Not as unpopular as Davina it seems

Really? You never for one second thought that someone who others would only know from seeing them on TV would form an opinion about them from their presence on TV?
Yeh, getting hypothermia and blubbing about how hard cycling is will surely get loads more people out and about on their bikes.
You are coming across so bitter, why is that?
Let me know where to send my sponsorship when or if you do something worth while.

If you think I am coming across as bitter than that's your take on it. I just googled bitter and the first definition that popped up was "feeling or showing anger, hurt, or resentment because of bad experiences or a sense of unjust treatment" - I can't abide her, she's of the lowest form of "entertainment"; but I don't hate her, or feel any sense of hurt or resentment; nor do I feel unfair treatment from her, other than we all have to endure her - so you'll have to explain your deductions for me Sherlock.
I don't have any intention of doing anything requiring anybody to sponsor me, I feel that people should make decisions based on ethics/morals rather than whether someone does something.
Not everyone shares your apparent enthusiasm for her adventure in the name of raising cash. Accept that we have differing views and you'll be fine. Otherwise you're going to find yourself disappointed cos I ain't going to be gushing praise in her direction. And please don't patronise me with your "well let's see what you can do/have done" cos it's the kind of response I thought I'd left behind when I turned 12.
