Brian Dowling - has he worked?
 

I know Brian is seen as a BB legend but I don't really liking him hosting the show. There is no sense of excitement at the interviews and his autocue style is really stilted.

Brian is doing a fantastic job imo, it's his first series and he's getting better and better as time goes on. I'm pretty sure if you went back to BB1 you'd notice a difference in Davina too

I actually think his interviews are far better than Davina's in the last 2 to 3 series, I also like Brian and think he has worked.
He'll be far better next year though when he can add more of his own stamp on BB, I think anyway.

Yes it's worked...Brian baby is now the face of BB Channel 5

He's not on long enough for me to form much of an opinion.

Needs to tone down the campness

I never thought i would ever this but i prefer Brian to Davina

Hes a gay man

this

I don't like his voice when he is shouting out the links in the main show, but I do like his housemate interviews.

But why do gay men have to be camp? Its as if most gay men have the same camp personality. Im my first thread here, I think i said why put a camp bi/ gay guy like Tom. I would have been a fraction more tolerant to Jay if he'd been gay.

I know gay men who aren't camp at all.

I'm really liking Brian especially when he interviewing the HM's

I don't think he could..anymore than say...Alan Carr..camp is what he is
I laughed when he was a H.M and said his mum didn't know he was gay.....how could she not have guessed......LOL

As a gay person myself, I'm a bit dissapointed at that comment... not every gay man is camp... just like many straight people can be camp...

I know I'm far from camp, Brian does need to tone down just a little bit, his flirting with Jemma's boyfriend was cringeworthy.

So do I,but Brian IS camp ,thats his business and his choice

he's just enough camp imo. Louis Spence = too much, Brian = just right :love:

Hes joking, hes always been this way ,it one of the things i like about him, hes himself

Oh I know he is joking, personally I love his campness, like Niamh said, it's about right, if he was Louis Spence i-fied I'd be annoyed, he's a joke... but I just thought he was a bit cringe... at times, he'll improve though.

Lesbians seems to have less stereotypes than gay men eg no one really thinks all lesbians are butch any more etc. But gay men seem to be portrayed in same way, that's why it was cool when that cricketer Stephen Davies came out last year.

This should be about Brian as a presenter,his sexuality should not even come into it

I quite like the campness, he's doing a good job so far and will get better if Channel Five give him a chance in my view.

Sit down ................... I agree with you !!!!!!!!!!! :dance::elephant::dance::elephant::colour::hello:: bouncy::dazzler:

I agree with this and with Niamh, he has just the right amount of campness, as does Alan Carr, I don't find it over the top..I think it compliments his presenting

No he's officialy ruined evictions. Tragic.
