    Who do you reckon are the most overrated people around? I mean, those folk that are in the public eye for being amazing, but are just not as good as it seems.

    I'll start off, Sir James Dyson. Lauded as some sort of revolutionary genius, he reinvented the vacuum cleaner, big f'cking wow.

    Was thinking about this the other day when I saw that Nick Knowles had released an album.

    Not so much over rated but over exposed with quite a lot of public faces trying their hands at everything and anything.

    Just when we think we've seen the last of them they're recycled via celebrity jungle and big brother etc.

    It's as if the powers that be just want to play safe rather than introduce new faces for the mainstream audience.

    Oh and Fern Cotton is a complete waste of snap.

    About as funny as a slap in the face with a wet fish.

    Goes without saying any of these talentless reality stars from TOWIE, Geordie Shore, Made in Chelsea, Cheshire Housewives, Big Brother, Gogglebox etc.

    Not sure they're rated, let alone overrated.

    Piers Morgan. Though he doesn't overrate himself, because he thinks it's not possible to.
