  1. Oh dear, the end of the mentalist hour on Radio Shortbread…

  2. So much of bbc radio is unlistenable almost, you have to wonder if the presenters actually think its good or enjoyable.

  3. Met her in person and she was right a mardy arse so can totally believe this. Commented on a thread a while back on here re nasty celebrities, her name came up a good few times.

  4. Article doesn’t mention whether she’s in the Gregg Wallace sort of trouble or the Jeremy Clarkson sort of trouble

  5. Such a bizarre article though, BBC reporting on an investigation by the BBC that the BBC is unable to comment on.

    My unpaid TV licence money hard at work

  6. Well so far Google is saying it’s for bullying and I quite believe it of her, I’ve never heard anything positive about her and never seen anything of her I would say was positive.

  7. Time to defund the BBC. Let this parasitic organisation source its own funding instead of leeching off people who don’t want to listen to or watch it’s content.

  8. Fucking finally. She’s a complete horror, tax dodger too.

  9. Nice how the public pay her hefty salary but aren’t allowed to know “the nature of the allegations”. 

  10. About time.

    I had the misfortune to meet her at the Garden Festival and she was an absolute {insert your own derogatory term}. She’s done nothing in the intervening years to prove me wrong.

  11. It does seem like the BBC are cleaning house since that investigation. I wonder if they’ll all end up on gbnews or something.

  12. Her radio show is all her deliberately being obtuse to call-in listeners and pretending to not understand their points

    She’ll say “so you’re saying “ and then reply miscommunicating and twisting their words

    It’s outrageous she has a show at all 

  13. Horrible “journalist”. Good riddance, not that anybody was really listening to her.

  14. I’ve been interviewed by her on her show quite a few times and she is a horrible person.

  15. Take this with a pinch of salt but I’m led to believe the current cohort of staffers on her show are mostly from the generation which are less inclined to tolerate bullying/toxic workplaces. She’s been a horrible boss for a long time but folk just put up with it as it’s usually how you get your foot in the door at the beeb before moving on to something better.

  16. Back in the 90’s she was doing a report of an oncology unit in Ayrshire where my mum was receiving treatment for breast cancer. She wanted a shot of all the patients in the lounge area which was part of the suite in the hospital to make it more homely. When certain patients refused, she got angry but eventually seemed to accept it. When the patients were called through for dinner the cameras were already set up and running to film them all coming in the door without their permission. This included people at various stages of difficult treatment, some of whom had weeks/months left to live and were not wanting to be seen on television. She’s one of the only people in the world that my mum hates. Kaye Adams is a foul human being

  17. She was the MC of a corporate event held by my workplace at the EICC a while back and her barely disguised condescension and hostility undermined an otherwise successful day. I’m amazed she’s still getting work.

  18. Oh no! Really?!

    So anyway, I made lasagne for dinner tonight.
