"The lovely Sue Barker presents Question of Sport"
"Clare Balding presents the Horse Show"
Is there a problem?
The adjective lovely can be interpreted as nice, kind, comapassionate or a hundred things other than a comment on Sue Barkers appearance. Clare Balding might be a little piqued she isn't lovely too I suppose.Last edited by doodab; 29 April 2014, 07:33.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you.

Balding applied to read law at Christ's College, Cambridge but failed her interview and realised that law was not what she most wanted to do.[3] She later successfully applied to Newnham College, Cambridge and read English.[5] While at university she was President of the Cambridge Union Society in Easter 1992 and graduated in 1993 with a 2:1 honours degree.[citation needed]
From 1988 to 1993, Balding was a leading amateur flat jockey and Champion Lady Rider in 1990. She had an eating disorder during her time as a jockey.[
As for Sue Barker;

love·ly (lŭv′lē)
adj. love·li·er, love·li·est
1. Full of love; loving.
2. Inspiring love or affection.
3. Having beauty that appeals to the emotions as well as to the eye. See Synonyms at beautiful.
4. Enjoyable; delightful.
n. pl. love·lies
1. A beautiful person, especially a woman.
2. A lovely object.
Loveliness implies to me character rather than appearance. Oh she is Lovely, he is a love etc. Against 'what a handsome chap Vetran is' or 'Mich Would'
I sort of agree we tend to judge women more on appearance than competence, which sometimes is a blessing for the more attractive women.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
