Could BBC6 Music have gotten it any more wrong than this?

George Lamb of BBC Radio 6Music is arguably the worst Radio Presenter ever! His ability to spout complete nonsense whilst trying to sound original and intelligent would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic. He really is quite a blot on the landscape of probably the best UK Music based Radio station.
Surrounded by a bunch of sycophantic goons he reminds you of the worst of radio DJ's and relies on them to correct him when wrong, which is often.
I don't think there has ever been a dj that has sparked such debate. It's obvious that he does have an audience, but is it really a 6music audience? It's been said that his placement was to attract 'female listeners', well I think his main success has been to attract morons and imbeciles and as many women as men are offended by his presence on what was the greatest music station.

Don't forget to Join in the Debate below as to whether he's good or not! Most people seem to think he isn't funnily enough!

The Top Nine Reasons George Lamb is the Worst DJ 

  • he stutters
  • he gets things wrong far too often
  • he pretends to be clever, but then comes a cropper
  • he's annoying
  • he's absolutely useless!
  • He knows nothing about music
  • His fake cockney or 'mockney' accent is makes him sound a complete tool for one educated in such a posh school as St. Christopher's
  • He's a useless interviewer
  • He doesn't play enough music, when he does play some he ruins it by either talking over it or using some stupid sound effect.

Charlie Murphy? Is this really a drug reference to the fact the whole studio is snorting coke? Or is that just how my mind works?

Like Him

ROBINSON says:

I think GL is pretty good, his show with Marc Hughes is funny, music is great.
Some people need to get a life, if you don’t like him fair enough - dont listen to his show!
But there are some idiots who post the same rubbish on sites like facebook, bbc boards etc. You people need to sort it out! I mean fair enough, make your point…. But don’t bore us with it.

andy smith says:

george is the best funiest dj ever anyone who doesnt get it is a chav tool who is better off listening to crapitol

ned says:

The best thing on the radio

Sandy says:

Best radio show ever!! Listen every day and George Lamb is brilliant!!! Bring on the Lamb!!!!

Tony Tabak says:

Funny and original and quick to admit to not being a walking musical encyclopedia (that's what his sidekick Marc Hughes is there for, a bloke with a genuine and deep musical knowledge). Alas, the anoraks and trainspotters are only happy with po-faced Lamaq types capable of naming the catalogue number of deleted Bogshed Flexi Singles and the name of the drummer from Crispy Ambulance's dog. Shabba to the lot of ya!

Owen says:

I can completely see why people could dislike him, but I think he's great (although I on't like the singing over the back of tracks). I've not been into a radio show like this since Marc & Lard, absolute genius. Something fresh and different on 6 music. He keeps the station well balanced, and without Adam & Joe and George Lamb the station would become decidedly flat during the day.

Charlie Murphy says:

He's very funny, stop being so bitter and listen to something else if you don't like him

chris says:

life is life. shabba.

Hate Him

sparrot says:

If he was such an asset to the station why did they move him to the graveyard shift? However he spins this, he's been demoted to an insignificant corner after having blown it in a mainstream slot. Having failed at every other job he's done on TV and radio I guess he'll be dissapearing soon. Sometime around sausage'o'clock I imagine.

JimmyJimmy says:

He'sa complete and utter tool, too full of himself to be interesting. The "show" that he "presents" is just a stream of sound effects, chortling sycophantic twats and idiotic "features". I'm sure there's a place for him, but it ain't 6music!

fanofactualmusic says:

Lamb is an incompetant, racist, sexist, arrogant pillock. Which would be bad enough, but it also has to be said that at the end of the day he 1) Isn't even remotely funny or amusing in any way at all and 2) He can't present a radio show to save his life. He just doesn't know how to do it and, even if he did, he lacks the skill and ability.

The man is a thick, uneducated wideboy with the personal magnetism of a turd and the charisma of a dead slug.

He knows NOTHING about music. Nothing. At all.

The BBC is failing in its remit by employing this twerp.

And that jingle "George Lamb - I would!" says it all. What on earth does it matter if he is good-looking or not? It's a radio show ffs. If being good-looking is the best reason to have him on a RADIO show then he needs to be sacked right now. IE - at 9am tomorrow morning, and not a minute later.

Alboy says:

My girlfriend and i feel vindicated, we have been saying to eachother how bad a dj he is for ages. It has got so bad that it feels like irrational hatred for someone who we know nothing about nor care about, but now we realise that there are many more like us.

GMan says:

George seem to be refuge for all the worst bits of radio that I have ever heard! Humorous sound bites that he uses for 'shout outs'? This type of broadcasting is 2 decades old. BBC 6Music isn't tailoured for people who have never heard that kind of thing before. Those kind of people listen to Chris (another waste of oxygen) Moyles! Please George, make way for someone who understands the reason people choose to listen to 6Music. The clue is in the stations title!

Bobbyfan says:

Good to have a temp reprieve from the prattle. Bobby friction is standing in for him this week!

benjamin says:

he actually makes me need a poo. My stomach churns at the unbelievable way he talks to people, all covered with thin skin of 'irony'. He seems to think that making all the right noises and 'appearing' to be a bit 'crazy', singing all over perfectly good songs makes him appear to be something approaching witty?
Has he ever listened to Adam and Joe? ever? just once?

Sadly I fear that he has listened, and he is now doing exactly what he did all the way through Public School - crap imitations of genuinely talented people around him - desperately hanging out with the right people - thought always shouting slightly louder than them.
Is it not bad enough that we have to meet these people in our everyday lives?
Please stop filtering them through our lovely radios and into our otherwise peaceful homes.
George Lamb - Dogbox
George Lamb - Tool
George Lamb - Dickwad

He's a total 4rsehole. I could be more erudite and witty, but he isn't worth it.
