What do people think about Carol Vordaman, taking her place on the show? I for one will not be watching any more.

Last time I looked she could have been doing with losing two from the bottom and any other five. :)
I get the impression that she's a one trick pony who's managed to bluff it so far.

I rarely watch this programme though have had it on at times in the background. From what I've seen I don't like, seems occasionally as though it's ok for women to say what they like about men but there'd be a hue and cry if it was the other way round! As for Ms Vorderman...she was ok on Countdown but I think she will be unbearable on LW...but I could be wrong.
In my opinion, she's actually caused some damage too. She was on a programme a fw years back, saying how she 'knew' the MMR vaccine had affected her children. She urged parents to not give it to their children.
God knows how many people, who saw her as intelligent enough to listen to, refused the vaccine because of her stupid remarks.

You must remember - CV has absolutely NO sense of humour whatsoever, quite a drawback when you are suposed to be a TV 'personality'.
This means she is never sue if what is being said is amusing or not, so to cover up, if she hears that alien sound (to her) of laugher, she joins in with the aural indicator of the terminally humourlless, a great braying noise like a moose with its balls in a revolving door. That indicates that she 'gets' the joke, but its a panic reaction because she never ever does.
Shame - she is a lovely looking woman, but she has a personality like her brain - a calculator.

couldn't stand the harpies on the programme, a bear baiting contest with lots of silly women, who had almost nothing to say on any subject. I did watch it a couple of times, then thought what a wasted opportunity. Carol Vordeman is on it, that does surprise me, thought she had a wee bit more sense, oh well
Thanks crisgal.
In fact, I came to this conclusion - although the moose / door interface description did pop into my head today - when I saw her on Countdown with the dreadful Whitely.
He was similarly devoid of anything approaching a sense of humour, so watching the two of them interact verbally was like hearing a nuclear scientist and a pygmie tribesman having a conversation - neither of them had a clue of the other was saying anything funny or not, but didn't dare admit it, so if one laughed (Whitely's laugh being a similarly mirth-free sound of a shed door being slammed repeatedly) the other would join in.
That meant that the originator of the comment - it was never important who said what - thought that what he or she had said must be funny, so they laughed along as well, and the two of them would sit and stand there braying at each other with the sort of facial expression one has when one sees an oncoming express train appraching the other person who has their back to it, and has no idea what's going on.
It used to give the feeling of a cat sliding down a blackboard, and I have avoided watching either of them since in any circumstances.
Gosh, I feel better now, I think I'll go and threaten one of the children!!!!!
