I think there's a pretty good chance that...

[Patrick]

On the first eviction when Brian is talking to the house he'll slip up:

'Okay right, everyone - ready? Okay let's do this guys! I am now going to talk to the house :amazed: ... Big Brother House, this is Davi- Brian! You are live on Channel 5 Please do not swear! :D

I swear - he'll either say Channel 4 instead of C5 or say Davina instead of his own name.

It'll be quite funny and perfectly understandable.

Davina's line has been iconic and always said by fans and stuff - it's only natural if he slips up, I mean you try saying 'Big Brother house this is Davina' 10 times and then replace Davina with Brian - you might slip up.

Does anyone else think he will? And look forward to it? :evilgrin:

[Doogle]

I don't want them to, but have a feeling they might change it a bit :/

[Patrick]

I don't want them to, but have a feeling they might change it a bit :/

Yeah he said he was going to try and make his own line :(

I wonder what it could be though?

[Doogle]

I don't mind too much if the line is good tbh :laugh:

But it needs to be fresh, iconic and as much as I'll miss it, the well known line doesn't work with the new changes.

[mymidas]

Well if hes up for sggestion how about.
HMs your live on CH5 please swear as much as you like and get your kit off your not being paid for the sparkling conversation. :)

[Patrick]

'Hiiii Guys! T'is Brian Dowling here, okay so - guys can I ask you all not to swear as we are Live on Channel 5 and in HD, so look your best gurls x Okay so Max, Charley and Sara the lines are closed and the votes have indeed been counted and verified and I can now reveal THAT, the 3rd person to be evicted from the Big Brother house IS.. Sara! Yes, sorry honey! You have 30 Seconds to say your goodbyes, FABULOUS BRIAN IS COMING TO GET YOU! :evilgrin:'


He should just really camp it up like that.

[Callum]

I have a feeling he may stutter over his lines a fair few times, on the times I've seen him on This Morning he doesn't seem fully comfortable live.

[Firewire]

He will mess up somehow, it's almost guaranteed. I think he's more likely to say Channel 4 than say Davina, but we'll see.

[CharlieO]

I dont want Brian to be camp at all. And I don't want him to steal Davina's line anyway. She will always be the BB host in my eyes anyway.

[Marsh.]

He said he's not using Davina's catchphrase, and said "they" are wording it differently.

[Jordan.]

Ugh its going to be horrible. The closer we get to the launch the more I want Davina back.

[MusicMan]

He probably won't say "I'm coming to get you!", considering Davina didn't even come and get the housemates for like 10 years, that'd just be a bit unnecessary :spin:

They'll probably get him to say "Housemates, this is Brian, you're live on five" or something like that, similar but changed :)

[Firewire]

I want her back. Brian will make this show horrible.

[Doogle]

I hope he's camp but not too much

[mymidas]

Thats a thought.
Davina says "I'm comming to get you "thats exciiting
Brian saying it could sound a little sinister after a few beers on Friday night. :spin:

[Patrick]

He's allowed to be camp all he likes up until it comes to announcing the evictee.

He can be sort of camp in the interview - depending on the housemate I mean if there's some big ass mother ******er who no one likes and we all want the truth out of him for something he did in the house, Brian needs to be serious - if it's someone like Nikki or something he should just be himself it'll be okay then.

[Saph]

"BIG BROTHER HOUSE ....THIS IS BRIAN!!"

..it doesnt have the same effect as Davina :/

[Sophiee]

I think it's likely that he'll mess up with his lines. he doesn't seem comfortable live. it will be strange without davina!

[Boothy]

Being camp is part of Brian's appeal though.

Generally, I don't like camp people but I warm to Brian for some reason.

[dizzy bint]

He's perfectly comfortable live. Brian has thousands of hours of live TV under his belt.

When it comes to This Morning, the show is virtually, if not completely unrehearsed and he often appears as a last minute replacement. That certainly won't be the case on BB.

On Thursday though it will be the first show of a huge job for him. He's bound to make at least one mistake but we have to think: who wouldn't in those circumstances? Everybody makes mistakes. Davina was lucky, when she started on BB, her very first show was a much smaller affair with much lower expectations.

Yeah i agree i think Brian will to a great job, & so what if he slips up a bit, the nearer its gettting to launch date the more excited i am about Brian hosting.

[LaLaLand]

"Big Brother house, this is Davina. You are live on 5... please do NOT swe... ****, sorry it's Brian"

Nah I think he'll be just fine!

I bet the nearer it gets the more nervous the bloke is getting. :sad:

:joker::joker::joker::joker: :joker::joker::joker::joker:

[Amy]

I reckon he will say channel 4 rather than 5! I'm quite looking forward to Brian being presenter and a fresh BB start :)

[mymidas]

How about a more honest approach for CBB?

Housemates you are live on CH5 please do not swear. Charlie, Kerry and Pam. The votes have been counted and verified and I can now reveal that the Housemate who recieved the most votes cost us a packet so Kerry I am going to get you your bus fare home.

[dawa]

Brian has more presenting hours under his belt , and more LIVE presenting hours , than Davina had when she started presenting Big Brother. Im quite sure he'll do fine.

[Glenn.]

I can see him making a big deal about it. The first time he speaks to the house and all. It will be a defining moment I suppose.

[armand.kay]

I can imagin somthing like "Hello house its brian, katy, mike and henry the lines are now closed and with 75% of the public vote henry you have been evicted you have 30 seconds say your goodbyes, pack your bags and leave ! Im comming to get you" then brian runs from the studio to the house to ge the housemate evicted.

[Patrick]

^ That's ******ing horrible.

Not only does it basically indicate how the public are thinking - it has no dramatic build up what so ever, it's just so robotic and formal - just like BBUSA and it sucks.
