did brian handle tara well?

[mizzy25]

tara was a bit off with brian in her interview i thought, wot with the anger @ the way she was edited then the *u asked me a question let me answer it conversation* do u think brian handled that well? i do

[SimBrotherNetwork]

No he didn't!

[chuff me dizzy]

He handled it BRILLIANTLY he just stood up and walked away leaving her sat there looking the total tw@ she made herself look ! brilliant Brian !!!!!

[Iceman]

No I dont, it was by far his worst night so far as presenter. he just left her there and tried to say something but laughed....she had a point and was asking something.

[Jordan.]

LOL no, he shouldn't have ran out on her. It looked so bad.

[joeysteele]

He was taken aback, Tara had a point,there is no point in asking a question if you don't listen to the answer but I thought Brian did really well.

[MeMyselfAndI]

He is dreadfull. I liked him as a housemate, but he is such an awful presenter. He breathes heavier than a dog. I feel like hes drowning or something & he just left at a random point in the interview. God he's just dreadful

[CaudleHalbard]

I assume he ran out of time, she was being her usual paranoid brain-addled self, so yes he handled it ok.

[Saph]

I dont know really :s he was probably abit shocked by that lol

[snookered]

He had a nightmare.

No surprise.

[Kazanne]

Tara was obviously annoyed that they showed her bitching about Darryn,but she has done this a lots of times,so that is what they show,so why be so annoyed,I'm sure we saw all Taras best bits ,glad she's gone couldn't understand much of what she said anyway,Brian did good he only had a certain amount of time,so he had to rush her as she does take forever to get to a point.

[GypsyGoth]

He looked like an amateur.

[CaudleHalbard]

Will be interesting to see how Tara fares on BBBOTS.

[Gillian-73]

No i don't he seemed so unprofessional! i do like brian but tonight wasn't good.

[Gillian-73]

Will be interesting to see how Tara fares on BBBOTS.

Indeed! don't watch it much but i'm tuning in tonight, just hope she turns up lol

[CaudleHalbard]

just hope she turns up lol

Good point! I suspect there may be a bit of a delay while they persuade her to come on. :D

Hope she gets some strong questioning.

[Callum]

No, he handled it awfully. Bad presenter

[CharlieO]

It was unprofessional and he very much acted like a little bitch. Davina would never walk away.

[Livia]

I don't get all the "he walked away" and "he was unprofessional" comments. He would have had someone in his ear telling him that there were so many seconds left of the show. Would it have been more professional to let her whine and rant out her paranoia and let the show run into the adverts? What else could he do?

Totally agree, i think he handled it the best he could, in that situation.

[DanielLuis]

Usually he lets them see their family at the end..he even didnt do that today...he walked away and thats the truth.

[Marsh.]

I don't think Tara got angry but he never gave her a chance to fully answer before butting in with a camp noise ("Oh no she didn't"). He asks her a question and she was frustrated he wouldn't allow her to answer.

And standing up and running off was pathetic. And then getting all flustered on the outside stage "It's live TV, what can you do?". Um, hire a skilled and decent presenter who can handle the pressures of live TV for a start Brian.

Yes, he had someone in his ear rushing him but it's down to him to use his skills as a host to bring the interview to a close, end on a positive note for the housemate, thank her and move on. He got up and ran off lol.

[cell]

I wonder if he simply ran out of time and had to go read off a lot of numbers for the final. She did take a long time to really go no where. You could make a drinking game out of how many times she said "you know"

[MTVN]

I thought he was alright actually, for his first time having to deal with something unexpected like that, only bit he could have done better was make his exit a little less rushed instead of jumping up and just leaving her sitting there, and does she not have any friends or family there?

[ILoveTRW]

just watched it
lol, love how he just ran off, i wonder if someone in his ear told him to do that
I would have bit her head off, but then again what he did was a probably a bigger **** you.

[CaudleHalbard]

He was probably over the time allowed and the producer was yelling in his ear. I think he just fluffed it a bit.

Davina was forever fluffing things, so let's not pretend it's something new. ;)

I do however feel we need someone a bit more authoritative than either Brian or Davina for the live show.......... and maybe even for BBBOTS... Emma is OK but no more than that.

[MaratSafinForever]

People are so dense on this forum.

Brian had always planned to walk into the middle of the stage at the end. He didn't just run away.

Yeah that was my idea of what happened, it seemed like she just took up too much time and he had schedule he needed to keep and needed to announce the final and numbers for people in it, etc...

tard shut it
last week he gave sally a hug and said bye
this week he ran off

Sally was able to articulately answer her questions in a reasonable amount of time, and there wasn't a vote for the final beginning after her interview.

it takes 1 second to give a hug

[cookiemonster]

he couldn't really give her a hug coz she was sitting down and he knew she just didn't want to. he says on the offical website he wishes it hadn't ended like that but it's not his fault if Tara got in a huff is it?

i think you all need to cut him some slack. he's new at it.

[Patrick]

Check out is blog on YouTube, he explains what went on. :laugh:

He did basically just get up and run.

Totally right, she does take too long to make her points. mind you she's rather like me in that.

I'd have got up and left her long before Brian did - through sheer boredom! :sleep:

[iRyan]

It was cringeworthy and unprofessional, especially how he just walked off in the end.

[CaudleHalbard]

Well if the producers think so, he'll get a rap across the knuckles won't he?

But it was probably the producers who told him to cut it short - quick - anyway.

That won't happen due to the fact that the show has gradually dropped down the scale in its target audience. It's now a teen aimed show with smutty jokes and lightweight substance, no serious journalistic/presenting talent needed anymore. No more psychology analysis of housemates or anything.

Agreed.

[Vicky.]

I hated the psychologists show with a passion. It was so boring, and they talked absolute ****e :bored:

[dizzy bint]

I thought he did really well. I was very impressed with him. I'm amazed, coming online this morning, that anybody thinks he didn't.

[lostalex]

He handled it BRILLIANTLY he just stood up and walked away leaving her sat there looking the total tw@ she made herself look ! brilliant Brian !!!!!

you must be joking? Tara looked like the tw@t? i don't think so, she made brian look like such an amateur. he was so out of his league, and proved by BB needs a PROFESSIONAL interviewer. Brian totally FAILED last night.

Tara made perfectly valid points, and you could hear the people in his earpiece panicking because she mentioned the lack of live feed. Brian panicked and ran.

[Pyramid*]

I'd have got up and left her long before Brian did - through sheer boredom! :sleep:



:joker:

This.

I loved the way Brian did the hand action gesticulations with the facial expressions at her, then brought the interview to a halt to go join the main external audience.

That's live TV.

Perhaps if Tara learned to speak at normal speed, instead of her deathly slow drawl she has when she has to put a few basic words together to form a sentence, it might have helped.

of course, she had difficulty speaking anyway: due to her massive petted lip banging off her knees, having seen how she could come across in her clips.:devil:

Ye gotta luv BB !!1

[Bojangles]

Tara must be every presenters nightmare to interview.

[arista]

He looked like an amateur.


Well he is Dirt Cheap.

He says 2 hour special but its 90mins

[InOne]

Tara was just too much to handle for him. She has no time for his campy antics whilst she was telling it how it is and good on her. That stupid finger wag he did as well :bored:

No wonder he ran off, Tara destroyed him :joker:

[Jordan.]

Pretty much shows BB up when the interviewee has more experience in interviews than the actual interviewer himself.

the finger wag was the best bit of the interview!!!:joker:

if she couldn't handle seeing herself in a not so perfect light: she shouldn't have gone on the show, as far as I'm concerned.

[CaudleHalbard]

Tara was any interviewer's nightmare. I doubt Davina would have done any better - she probably have resorted to gurning to fill in the gaps! :D

:bigsmile:

so true!!

I loved Brian pointing out that the VT Tara had been shown earlier DID show a fun element to her: funny that she didn't take exception to those little clips - only to the ones she 'didn't like'.

Awww poor Tara... diddums. :joker:

[Jordan.]

Just thought now if they didn't show her best bits right at the start of the interview when they had to interrupt her because she mentioned 'what was shown' it wouldn't have ended as awkward as it did.

[InOne]

Brian was most likely star struck by Tara, so was probably a bit nervous anyway

[CaudleHalbard]

You can't design a show around someone whose brain has been scrambled by years of drugs and alcohol abuse. There was a limited time for the interview and time ran out............ and so did Brian! :D

[Pyramid*]

Just thought now if they didn't show her best bits right at the start of the interview when they had to interrupt her because she mentioned 'what was shown' it wouldn't have ended as awkward as it did.

And no doubt some would have complained that they did it that way around ..... It wouldn't have ended as it did, most likely. But isn't that the very thing that BB fans want..... controversy, bit of stirring etc..... otherwise people would then comment then that it's boring!!!

It's scenario of not being able to please all the people all of the time: and that's the way it should be.

Nothing like a hefty dose of the truth to balance things!!!

It is a live show and these things happen, I still think it put her in her place... when she was left sitting there with the surprised look on her face, mouth catching flies: brilliant!!:joker:

[Tom4784]

Brian was incredibly unproffessional, he could have taken a few seconds to wrap it up as the producers have made him and themselves look stupid by just having him run away from her.

[Vicky.]

OK last night I was agreeing with her about the editing. However, we have seen a LOT more than she has. How on earth did she come to the conclusion from a 2 minute clip, that she had been badly edited and thats why she was out?

Just seems paranoid and unable to accept that she is not as popular as she thought to me :/

[Pyramid*]

He could have... this may be true.... but how do any of us know he was not 'told' to act as he did.... who is to say he didn't get the old, "Just walk away now... we're running out of time to wrap up" shouted through his earpiece.

Totally agree. She didn't complain with the first set of clips showing her in a good light: but had the petted lip on when she was shown the other side of her.

I agree totally with your last paragraph. 100%.

[Jords]

Showed no respect (for Tara or himself), **** presenter.

[james130]

This is why they should end with best bits so it's on a positive.

[Pyramid*]

plenty of other housemates in the past had a hell of a lot worse interviews -and far more unfairly nasty clips shown - than Tara's. She made a big deal over not a lot.

[rsefitpro2011]

In fairness to Tara, Brian never let her give an answer. However I think Brian just left as he had so many seconds left of the show. Remember Davinas done that in the past so I don't think he was running away from her!

True, very true.

People want LIVE shows, and when they get them: and this type of thing happens: suddenly the live shows that they wanted, no longer seem as ideal.

Davina has indeed done very much the same thing - it's hardly as though Brian is some sort of devil incarnate for having to stick to a strict and tight time schedule.

[lostalex]

Brian did Not handle Tara.... Tara handled Brian lol

[Marsh.]

Tara was any interviewer's nightmare. I doubt Davina would have done any better - she probably have resorted to gurning to fill in the gaps! :D

Davina was a right gurner but she proved time and time again that when it came down to it she could be serious and handle tough situations in live TV. Just look at the interview during CBB5 (race row), interview with Makosi etc. Brian is just a camp fluff ball full of nerves. Imagine him in those situations.

[Marsh.]

He could have... this may be true.... but how do any of us know he was not 'told' to act as he did.... who is to say he didn't get the old, "Just walk away now... we're running out of time to wrap up" shouted through his earpiece.

I find it hard to believe that. They would always be informing Brian of how much time he has for a segment, how long he has left. It's down to him to use his skills to move things along and do it on time. If he left it so late that he had nothing else to do but jump up and run out the door then it's still his fault. A more experienced presenter is needed, not an overinflated ego because they won a previous series.

IIRC, Davina pumped up the audience into a complete hate fest for Makosi - to the point that even those viewers who didn't like Makosi (I was one), thought it was an absolute disgrace the way Davina allowed that interview to go the way it did.

hardly what I would class as a professional if we're going to break it down to that.

Davina was far from perfect when she first started out and made many a blunder along her well worn path until she gained some real experience under her belt.

[crocs]

You could make a drinking game out of how many times she said "you know"

Exactly, and no matter how many times she said "you know", I never knew! She didn't make any sense when she spoke.

[camille]

She was a terrible interviewee even having to listen to her was bloody hard work.

[CaudleHalbard]

Tara Who?

I've forgotten about her already! :D

[CharlieO]

Davina handled the race row and post interviews with impeccable grace and class. That was far tougher to deal with than someone talking about some bad decision on Channel 5's part. Brian was incredibly unprofessional just running out.

[Pyramid*]

God you aren't wrong.

It was like she was being played in slow motion - you wanted to shake the words out of her...mumbling incoherant rambling fool.

guess that's what too many years ramming too many drugs and drink down your neck do for a person.

(including going away, getting married on a whim and then realising when you are away from your newly wed husband, that you haven't even discussed where you are going to live!!).

Superb!

wonders how long it will be before the Tara Reid gets divorced headlines hit.

yeah.. she handled Makosi's interview with impeccable grace and class. Not.

Suggest you check back to when Davina did her very first few interviews and see how 'slick and professional' she was...... in comparison to her latter years having had years to gain experience of such interviews under her belt.

I have rewatched 9 out of 10 seasons (not including BB11 because it aired recently) and 4 CBB's in just under a year. I know how she has changed and adapted over the years as I can compare them directly and other than her jokes becoming a bit cringe in the last 2 years she really hasn't changed that much. Imagine Brian in her situation of CBB5. He would crumble.
