**Usual disclaimer about confirmation**

[Novo]

It's 100% a she then he's been given instructions to trick us

[mkdfan]

I would love him to present, he will be as passionate about it as Davina and has a friendly face.

[craigie2405]

A don't know about this, maybe Crap ! Maybe not! Would have rather had kate or Emma

A fellow Accrington member whoop... :elephant:

[Alec]

It does sound natural to be fair. Sounds better then 'Emma' strangely.

[Marc]

Meh... It'll only be once a week

[SaveBigBrotherOnFacebook]

Emma Emma Emma :(.

[cub]

Trust H from Steps to let the cat out the bag. Gobby little twonk. God, a more irritating snivelling ****e I can't think of.

Go back to cwying in the toilet, you div.

[cub]

snivelling ****e

"****e" rhymes with 'fight'.

By the way.

[james130]

I like him but he'll be nothing on Davina!

[Niamh.]

I like him but he'll be nothing on Davina!

He'll be different which is a good thing, a girl would be forever compared to Davina

[Tony1111]

I can imagine the interviews now.

Well Mandy whenever IIIII was in the house...

Tell us a bit about your time in the house, I can relate because you know I've been in there twice!

Don't get me wrong I like Brian but I would prefer him much better on BBLB than the main show. I like Emma much, much better. :(

This.

Agreed. yes i like Brian, but it would be... too... ME! if you catch my drift, like you pointed out there it would be like... So, when I! was in there i did this, i remember cause its ALL ABOUT ME!!!!!

[midlandman]

if it is him he might of have been warned not to make it the brian show

[SimBrotherNetwork]

That's all brian's ever been about ME ME ME, that's why i cant stand him, i am so gutted about this.

[Andrew.]

i can just imagine the BB titles rolling and then it zooming into brian, and he says 'ME' or 'Im back' :/

[SimBrotherNetwork]

i can just imagine the BB titles rolling and then it zooming into brian, and he says 'ME' or 'Im back' :/

Same lol
Him in interviews will also be about ME

[Jarrod]

Well done Brain Dowling and good luck presenting the main show!! Sure 5 will make it work as it used too.

it is defo him now :) unless c5 are making them tweet about him LOL

[bbfan1991]

Brian will be great. I think C5 will have a role for Emma planned when she has finished her pregnancy:).

[CharlieO]

Not the worst option I guess. But :(

[Locke.]

Awful

[SimBrotherNetwork]

Oh no :(

[Andrew.]

6 hours till its officially announced. :(

[Tony1111]

I guess it could be worse. I'd rather a fan of the show than someone who doesn't like it. :)

[Locke.]

At 12 tonight on the official site everything will be gone, and only this picture shall be there:

http://www.johnmilesorganisation.org.uk/userimages/Noel.jpg

[Vladimir]

YAY! He will be good, no doubt. :D

[Tony1111]

The advert description has been leaked.

The greyish surroundings of a Graveyard as many housemates mourn the loss of Big Brother 2000-2010, the ground errupts and Brian Dowling crawls out he is in main focus of the camera exclaims the words "ME!" and blinks the camera zooms into his smiling face and eventually his eye what will be the new logo also.

:p

Nah, to be honest Brian has potential providing he puts the fact he was a Housemate behind him and focuses on the new generation. :)

[Josy]

Emma would have been better

Why did you want him to be the host? :laugh:

[Zippy]

He's too lightweight to anchor the main show

not physically, obviously

[seaodw]

emma>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

[InOne]

God help us all

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

I really like Brian, but i would have preferred him to present BBLB & Emma for the main show, but having said that, I'm not really disappointed, at least Brian is well knowing, i would hate for someone that wasn't well knowing to present the show, & he is a big fan of the show after all.

[Michael]

Some of the threads with rumours etc and no sources are a joke, thought as ive been on this forum for a few years it would be better to create a relevant thread, where we can all talk about it etc.

We could merge all into this thread.

What do you all think?

[JohnnyBB]

meh theres no point this forums just going to go intoo over drive anyway, theres been no news for months!

[Michael]

was just an idea i guess. would be better.

the only news we will get at midnight will be presenter based anyway id say.

[dizzy bint]

God help us all

Its the once a week BB presenter, not the end of days.

[Zippy]

Its the once a week BB presenter, not the end of days.

well thats a good point

I can mute him once a week I guess. Although him at the helm does give the show an instant whiff of cheapness.

[BBDodge]

With 4 weeks to go there's no need to release loads of news now anyway.

Dribs and drabs then a big splurge in the final week.

[southblue]

I think it would be a brilliant idea Michael. It would be good to keep everything on this subject in one tidy thread. Don't know how you'd be able to police that though.

Confirmed.

[rachelricci]

Nooooooo

[dizzy bint]

Exellent!!

:dance::dance::dance:

[alexonthewall]

omg why?!
they have brian and emmas jobs the wrong way round!

[MTVN]

I like him, glad we've got him instead of Emma, I'm just a bit worried he might try to hard to be all quirky and funny and make it all a bit of a joke

[Tony1111]

TWO pages of BB news! :D

[o8kawasaki89]

Yes Love Brian He Will Be A Great Host!

[Tony1111]

I would've prefered Emma but I'm glad it's a fan host atleast. :)

[southblue]

Shall be buying the Star tomorrow!

[georgehudson]

If it is Brian, it will be the BIGGEST dissapointment I've ever seen on BB (including C4), I just really hope it's Jeff.

[Jack_]

Absolutely amazing news :D

[Tony1111]

George it is Brian.

[alexonthewall]

i hope he doesn't make it all about him!

[bb12]

Hope Its True That Guy Is A BEUTE!

[Tony1111]

I shall probably just pick it up in the store and just flick to pages 4-5 to see the pictures if there's no eye or house pictures then I'm not gonna buy it. :p

Edit: Oh, It's only 30p. I'll just buy it then. :joker:

[dizzy bint]

i hope he doesn't make it all about him!

It's a scripted and rehearsed show, the producers won't let him do that.

Brian Dowling

Thoughts?

ap

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Wonder what exclusive picture inside the paper will be.

[Lewis.]

:( Wish it could have been Emma but never mind

[CharlieO]

It says host of new pictures not host of new show.

And that advert seems terribly cheesy.

[Tony1111]

Wonder what exclusive picture inside the paper will be.

I'm guessing Advert pictures, But I really want House pictures or the eye. :bawling:

[The_Big_Send_Off]

STOP ACTING DUMB FFS! some people

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

Can you read it online the Daily Star, i really dont want to buy it, cause i really don't like the paper.

[keithafc]

It will probably be Brian and at the end of the day, i have no real problem with that. Davina was iconic in that role and it will obviously take some getting use to with a new one doing it. Caroline Flack would of been an amazing choice for it. She has been brilliant on Im A celebrity get me out of here Now and i think Simon picked up on that and has got her to do the future X Factor ITV 2 shows.

[georgehudson]

It's actually true... I am so dissapointed it's even put me off watching :bawling:

This is a huge thing for me as I am such such such a fan of the show and it has helped me through many personal problems. I just find it such a shame that the oppotunity to revive the show has been wasted already. :bawling:

Emma Willis and/or Jeff Brazier should have got the job. I am so dissapointed in C5 for wasting this oppotunity they had for the show, I really don't know what to think right now. :nono: :bawling:

Is the press release at 12am?

[Tony1111]

Can you read it online the Daily Star, i really dont want to buy it, cause i really don't like the paper.

Yeah, it's viewable online at 12:00AM. :)

[Zippy]

Its a sad Omen imo

[Brekkie]

God - I'd have preferred Zezi Ifore!

Awful presenter who having stumbled through SM:TV off the back of BB2 could only manage a gig hosting a late night quiz telly since.

Ex-housemates hosting is never a good idea either - Brian showed in Ultimate BB he believed his way was the only way when it came to being in the house. Awful, awful choice.

On the plus side I was right - C5 are right royally ****ing it up!

[Maia]

Horrible news. Ughh. He IS gonna make it all about him.

[keithafc]

My main question would be is can Brian deliver the energy needed to present the show? That way Davina went about it and the energy she put in and can he ask the right questions from housemates who have just been evicted?

These are important decisions for the future of Big Brother on Channel 5.

[the_last_remaining_fan]

Why?

[LaLaLand]

I'd have liked a female host but change is good. Plus he's very popular with general television audiences so people may also tune in "to see Brian" which will help ratings also he's still extremely enthusiastic and "in to" Big Brother so really he is the perfect choice.

[BigBroSite]

Guys, you never know. She still might be involved.....

[Locke.]

Yes I am sure he gained plenty of fans presenting The Mint on ITV at 2 in the morning

[Stu]

Brian will be just fine. I don't know why people have reservations about him. I'd rather it was Emma Willis as she would be the next best thing to a new Davina but Brian is respectable looking, energetic and one of the few BB alumni to have not wanked it all away for himself yet. A stand up bloke who should be good and passionate on the mic about Big Brother.

[tmi]

Emma is supposedly doing spin off show:hugesmile: Hate Brain, hate, ruined it now farking hell:bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling:

[LaLaLand]

Yes I am sure he gained plenty of fans presenting The Mint on ITV at 2 in the morning

... & working on This Morning doing the soaps and other things most days...

[Zippy]

I see many threatening to tune out "to not see Brian".

I just think he'll be very amateur and given this is a do or die relaunch think they shouldve gone for more secure hands.

[Brekkie]

I'm not really a twitter person but if we could get #getbrianout trending that would be great!

[Stu]

... & working on This Morning doing the soaps and other things most days...
Regardless nobody is going to tune in to 'just see Brian'. He's not Michael Jackson.

[Beastie]

I don't mind if Brian hosts. We will see what happens. I just think it's going to be a "niche" market ratings bag!

However suppose Davina wasn't a "big name" when she first got the BB job.

[Alec]

Guys, you never know. She still might be involved.....

LOL I remember that show. Even on that it was actually the redhead woman who had to take the more mature lead while he just minced about. You'd think it was called The Mince.

[Kerry]

As long as he doesn't go OTT faffing about daft he'll be fine

[MaratSafinForever]

I don't think Brian is a great idea but seriously, what does Emma Willis bring to the show?

She's not particularly intelligent, she's not funny, she's not versatile, she brings absolutely nothing to the table. The fact she's even being considered bewilders me.

[Marsh.]

My main question would be is can Brian deliver the energy needed to present the show? That way Davina went about it and the energy she put in and can he ask the right questions from housemates who have just been evicted?

These are important decisions for the future of Big Brother on Channel 5.

He is given questions by the producers. No journalistic experience required here.

It's looking less likely I'll follow the show properly now. I would have been all for a complete reboot but now I'm already put off by this news.

Instead of refreshing the show it seems they're continuing to drag the already smashed up car that is BB on channel 4 further down the road of tackiness.
