Sunday Brunch: Simon and Tim interact with guest panel
Sunday Brunch's latest guest list fell flat with viewers. Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer welcomed former Strictly Come Dancing contestant Ellie Taylor, Britpop star Alex James, comedian Andrew Maxwell, athelete Iwan Thomas, actress and comedian Michelle de Swarte and rockers Travis to the show today (July 7).
Chef Jeremy Pang also made an appearance to cook a dish for everyone. However despite the huge variety of clelebrities ont eh show viewers still issued complaints on social media.
@foxinthebox2010 singled out Jeremy for criticism on X writing: "This guy is so boring, makes me never want to cook again. #SundayBrunch." @IanBartlett_felt the guests were just as bored as the viewers commenting: "#sundaybrunch all the guests board s*******."
@daveruth890 wasn't warming to any of the celebrities chiming in: "#SundayBrunch A right wired bunch on here today." @Rise_and_grind7 indicated his boredom with emojis as Blur bassist Alex James made an apperance writing: "So Alex James is on again to talk about cheese #Sundaybrunch." @ExWMTony felt Ellie Taylor was repeating herself observing: "I might be imagining things but I’m sure she said that pressure washer anecdote the last time she was on? Or had she pinched it from another unfunny comic? #SundayBrunch."
Michelle wasn't floating @dumptyhumpty18's boat as the announced: "Shes louder and more annoying than Lulu #SundayBrunch." Meanwhile Travis singer Fran Healy suffered the ignominy of being mistaken for a compeletely different vocalist as @ATJ01031968 enquired: "Who is the chap with the red hair? I’m guessing the singer with Hot Chip? #SundayBrunch."
Comedian Andrew Maxwell avoided criticism as he discussed his upcoming Edinburgh Fringe show with the two hosts.
During the chat he revealed that this would be his 30th year attending the world famous festival.
Iwan Thomas also seemed immune to the audience backlash.
The Welsh athlete was making his first appearance on the show in a decade, something Tim and Simon kept reminding him.
