Best dressed, best looking, and most in need of a makeover. Your TV nominations please

Who is the best dressed person in TV? Who gives you the hots? And who is most in need of a makeover from the man who makes you feel good naked, as it were, Channel 4's very own Gok Wan?

Now I'm not just asking out of curiosity - although I am very curious, obviously, but because the Media Guardian Edinburgh International Television Festival is conducting a poll asking these very questions. And a few more.

To take part - completely anonymously, it says here - click here. In the meantime, share your thoughts with everyone else, only slightly less anonymously, on here.

Now I don't know about the best dressed, but Channel 4's Andrew Newman is certainly the most dressed, if you see what I mean. He clearly puts a lot of thought into his occasionally inspired, sometimes hilarious outfits, with a bigger wardrobe budget than Channel Five spends on its programmes.

He's on the left here, with the Peep Show boys, although not exactly at his dapper best.

If there was a category for people most likely to be seen wearing short-sleeved shirts, then that would surely be topped by Peter Salmon.

I haven't seen the man a great deal, you'll understand - we used to work at the same local newspaper (although not at the same time) - but whenever I have, he's been in a shirt. With short sleeves.

Here he is (sleeves not visible, long or otherwise).

Anyway, that's not a category the festival people are interested in, nor is the one called "worst dressed person". So keep those thoughts to yourself. Or post them here. Not that I would encourage you, of course. Oh no.

But don't just write here. Click here too.
