Published Monday, Jul 31 2006, 14:04 BST | By David Cribb
James Blunt has polled fourth in a list of the "most annoying things".
The survey was carried out by Lactofree, makers of health drinks. According to the adults interviewed, the singer is more annoying than traffic wardens and hangovers.
Other people who made the list include Celebrity Big Brother couple Chantelle and Preston (9th), Carol Vorderman (11th) and Abi Titmuss (18th).
The singer did not finish top though, Blunt's three saving graces being cold callers, caravans and queue jumpers.
