I fear the days of good chat show hosting are all but over.

They near all annoy me watching them, particularly when they interview politicians.
It doesn't need to be so confrontational and sadly it's hard to find real unbiased presenters as to political issues.
All the ones in place are harder line from the right.
Sadly and surprisingly more the female ones.

On general interviews of interviewing like celebrities then Ben Shephard is pretty good

For me a good all rounder on interviewing and who also comes across less as biased is Victoria Derbyshire.

I'm sorry to say I find Hislop smug and often sarcastic in his political interviewing too.
Especially to more left of politics guests.

I honestly however cannot recall when I last enjoyed an interview with either celebrities or politicians with the presenters in place on TV now.

Ben Shephard as I said is good on general interviewing and he's slotted in well on This Morning.
So for general interviewing I'd say him.

For say political interviewing, then I'd watch Victoria Derbyshire and not get myself riled at her style of doing so.
