Louis Theroux-Seemingly unflappable
That Chris fella from SAS Who dares wins- Seems like a decent bloke
Tamsin Greig- Unusual looking lass who I find rather becoming
Bill Bailey-Supremely talented and likeable
Roy Keane- Says it as he sees it, no sugar coating like most on ITV
Alice Cooper-Possibly the most normal guy in rock,and funny too

None of these count as you've given a perfectly rational explanation as to why you like them alongside each one.

Mine would be Bradley Cooper. I have no idea why I dislike him, I just do.

Having read the other tread and now this one it would appear that indeed very few people know what word means.

Just remove the word "Irrational" and replace them with the words "hate or Love" and job done.

I think so, yes. TBH he was a proper tw*t as an MP, but he's a curiously compelling presenter, either as a guest on politics programmes or when he's waving his Bradshaw's around.

Yes, he is quite compelling. There’s a slight sense of awkwardness about him too, which also makes him quite watchable.

Not really irrational but Patrice Evra isn’t too bad. Opened his heart on Freeze The Fear to a quite harrowing childhood, but you can also read his face like a book - and you know when he’s not really enjoying a task as it’s written all over his face.
