Former Coronation Street star Sally Lindsay has replaced Richard Osman as co-host of the tea-time quiz show Pointless after he announced he was stepping away from the role in April. Sally, who played Shelley Unwin in the soap, is one of the all-star guest hosts joining regular presenter Alexander Armstrong.
On Tuesday Sally, from Stockport, had a comical exchange with Richard while viewers commented about her using the laptop in front of her. As she delivered answers and information surrounding the general knowledge questions put to the contestants some fans took to Twitter to complain about Sally 'reading' from the laptop.
@WHartley10 tweeted: "Will you please stop constantly looking down at your laptop and engage more with contestants? Not liking the new look, sorry." And @JonStone101 said: "Richard Osman always gave the appearance that he knew the information he was giving, Sally Lindsay is clearly just reading from a laptop #pointless."
