Jezza can be hilariously funny, but I hate the way he interrupts guests on the show; he talks over them all the time, with this I,I,I, think, think think stuttering rubbish. I also know he loves his l... See more

Only decent presenter is Ian Collins. Mike Graham turns around every conversation to about himself. And as for that Julia Hartley-Brewer woman, just awful, loves the sound of her own voice, always tal... See more

Omg I just watched the interview of Julia who claims she’s a journalist but in fact she’s a hysterical person who not only disrespected a doctor on live tv but she was so unprofessional and hysterical it’s not even funny. This doctor was so polite and respectful she really really should be fired from her position. Shame on u and shame on this radio station that hired such an unprofessional and biased person. She needs THERAPY and anger management sessions

Omg the level of unprofessionalism from Julia Hartley brewer when interviewing the Palestinian nationalist - why call these people onto your show when you are going to be so disrespectful and not even act like a journalist - her behaviour needs to be addressed in light of the current situation this lady just breed hate!

Julia Heartly-Brewer’s interview with…

Julia Heartly-Brewer’s interview with Dr Mustafa was an absolute disgraceful display of islamaphobia ontop of unprofessional petulant shouting. What a shambolic excuse for journalism, nobody in their right mind would class her as a reputable reporter and neither should this network. They have a responsibility to not only ensure the journalists on thier network are professional but also unbiased, to scream over somebody and use “sexism” as a supposed reason to think her behaviour was in any way warranted makes your network not only look like you employ completely racist insensitive uneducated people it makes it look like you also support her view!
If you as a network in any way want to have a respectable reputation, she should issue an apology and or no longer represent your network at all!! Shameful to say the least

Bring back Mike Graham in the morning between 10 - 1pm
Julia's always on holiday and the bloke covering sounds like kier starmar! Which is off-putting.
LBC hasn't changed it's lineup between 7-1pm so why does talk TV every minute.
Also,no one watches talk TV because we are doing other things while listening.
It's a complete waste of money 🤑💰
Talk radio has lost its soul and I seldom listen to it anymore.

I really don't like new line up.Jeremy Kyle and Nicola Thorpe are awful to listen to first thing. As others have said,why must Jeremy Kyle keep going on about his life and who he knows. Cristo and James Maxx should be on first thing,so easy to listen to.Ian Collins should be on more too.

Outstandingly bias

Outstandingly bias, arrogant and detached from reality, to the point where they'd make Alex Jones from InfoWars (the gay frogs 🐸 guy) look like an outstandingly normal individual. 😳 It's like if Kanye West owned a Radio/News channel and all the presenters are on Bath salts/meth.

Unfortunate programme rescheduling.

The rescheduling of programmes has spoiled the talk tv experience for me.
I enjoyed listening to Mike Graham in the morning, but the new slot at 9.00 pm is inconvenient.
Jake Berry is unappealing as a presenter and Julia Hartley-Brewer can't be quiet long enough for her guests to answer questions.

Why TalkRadio have you changed the…

Why TalkRadio have you changed the schedules? The Jeremy Kyle breakfast prog is “un-listenable”, shouty and not what you need first thing in the morning. Lots of silly laughter. You need clear intelligent conversation and analysis of the news. Also the excellent Mike Graham has been shoved off to the nether lands after 9pm. No-one listening or watching as there is so much else on tv or radio to watch and listen to. His morning show was excellent with Kevin O’Sullivan and right through to 1pm. No longer now as I don’t listen after 9pm unfortunately. Certainly miss that. JHB in morning is ok but lacks the directness and common sense of Mike. Suggest talktv/radio think again and get Mike back in the mornings and cut the breakfast show with Jeremy and Nicola. Jeremy was good in the early evenings. I was a fan of Talk but I’m afraid I switch to GBNews on lots of occasions when I can’t stand the shouting.

I thought I'd give talkradio another listen after a long break. Why do the management keep dicking about with the schedules and personnel? Why have some of their best presenters been relegated to death slots?

I have absolute zero interest in the TV aspect of Talk, so why not admit the dismal failure and go back to radio only? Cut down on the mind numbingly dull, repetitive and counter productive adverts and I may consider coming back. But for the moment, it's a no from me again.

Straight talking with whats happening.

Please please, why change a winng breakfast programme with JHB. Replacing it with shouty Jeremy Kyle and Nicola Thorpe. Thorpe is out of her depth and is winging it.
Please tell Alex Phillips to calm down and stop fidgeting with the pen!! She's trying too hard.
mike & Kevin have a chemistry its so natural.
Love Ian Collins on his show.

Talk TV has gone downhill 🫤

I am sorry but 1 star is all I can give. This is only because I love the James Whale’s show once a week. I used to watch Talk TV all the time but since they have changed the format and shuffled the presenters around I no longer turn it on. Why have you messed with the schedule? The previous format was fantastic. I loved starting the day with Julia followed by Mike and Kevin, Mike, Kevin, Jeremy etc. I how now switched over to GB News every day. I don’t understand why Talk TV have changed to the “chat show” format. Such a shame how a brilliant channel has gone downhill.

Coverage of Isrsel / Gaza,Conflict.

There is only one star 🌟 at Talk TV during the crisis. Piers Morgan His programme has offered viewers valuable insight into the crisis, platforming guests from both sides , in a respecful professional manner.

Too many others are clearly biased in their support of Israel offensive, zero real empathy for plight of Palestinians.
Offer no balance, are so rude and disrespectful to guests. Just seems allabout their egos and sensationalism.

During the last 10 days, I have listened Kyle and JHB actually spread MIS INFORMATION ~ using the debunked claim, of babies being beheaded, to bolster their arrogent argument. It is such a delicate and inflamatory subject.
I find it so disrespectful to the victims of the 7th.
This wrong information spreads fear , resentment in our communities too, they should behave more responsibly.

The latest JHB show together with Douglas Murray went a,step further and too far, on a personal rant and attack of another independent journalist.

Disgusting behaviour , they mis represented him, almost slandered him.
It's becoming really disturbing as this could have consequences for the individual involed.

A platform that claims to be about free speach , is engaging in hateful and inflammatory speach.

Going Backwards

Totally agree with other reviews - Nicola Thorpe was awful when a guest on a show and now she is a presenter it highlights just how out of her depth she is - Feel for Jeremy Kyle as he looks so different to when he had his own evening show - So Sad? - Same again with Alex Philips - Totally out of her depth bringing Kevin O Sullivan down as well? - Just stares at her cue card twiddling her pen and constantly speaking at the wrong time over Kevin - Adding to this the continual repeat every 10 minutes of the same pathetic and cheap looking commercials from The Tonic one to Gold Reserves etc etc - Have now switched to GB News

The Kyle-Thorp breakfast show is simply awful. Presenters and guests talk over each other, it seems like a contest to see who can speak the loudest, there are more ads (for Talk TV, no less) than actual news. Kyle seems to be pressed to have a voice aside the insipid Thorp and it's painful to watch, especially so early in the day. There's absolutely no value in watching this quite terrible broadcast and I've turned it off more times than I can count. But today marks the end of my attempts to watch.
