New presenters to join her.

"The aim is to take the show a bit more upmarket than it is now."


Emma Willis’ BB-it parts

Big Brother presenter lands role on her old show too

http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01711/SNF17TV1X---6204_1711998a.jpg

BIG Brother bosses will get their money’s worth from new presenter Emma Willis.


They’ve given her a role on spin-off series Bit On The Side as well.

Emma, who previously hosted the cheeky discussion show, will take over presenting roles on the main series.

It follows the axing of host Brian Dowling after two years.

But show bosses still want popular Emma to be involved in Bit On The Side – alongside a new panel of presenters after current co-hosts Jamie East and Alice Levine left the show.

An insider said: “As well as shaking up the main show, bosses are keen to freshen up Bit On The Side.

“It is still early days – but Emma will still have a role on the show alongside other new presenters.

“The aim is to take the show a bit more upmarket than it is now.

“Sadly, Jamie and Alice won’t be back.”

The new-look shows will launch on Channel 5 in the summer.

Emma admitted she couldn’t wait to get started when she bagged the main Big Brother gig earlier this month.

The presenter said: “I am thrilled to have been offered this job.

“I’m a fan first and foremost, so to be able to front the show is going to be amazing.

“Roll on the summer!”

Nah, they just said 'a role' because there isn't a single presenter. Alice hosted at weekends before and someone else will now, the most change I think we'll see to Emma's role is it reduced to Monday-Thursday or something. Hopefully though she'll soldier on and carry on doing five, viewers love her so hopefully the profile she builds as the main host will rub off in additional retention for the spin-off show, if only on Fridays. They should do ads during the main show like they used to with Big Mouth (I know they ran a generic ****ty one in 2011 and I know we saw Emma talk to Brian most eviction shows last summer, but I mean live "on tonight's show" episodely ads like Russell and I think Jack Whitehall did).

I hope you're right but I'm still not confident :( 'role' sounds like a minor part. Do you think they'll double up presenters on each day though (like Iain Lee and Emma co-hosting each day) and that's what they mean by roles, or do you just think the new presenters will take over weekends and Emma will keep doing weekdays, possibly dropping Friday? Or vice versa with Emma on weekends of course.

I agree though, her still doing the five shows would be perfect...it is her show, she does it best. Though I will settle for less as long as she does some of it, but I'd rather she did it solo than as a co-host, or as I'm still not sure it won't be...just presenting silly VT's...God forbid.

Wonder who'll be the new presenters too. Kate Walsh? Rylan?! Could see them two being put together actually.

Presenting jobs are referred as 'the role' in the press most of the time, I think you're reading too much into it.

Presenting VTs isn't a role, and is beneath the main show host.

Assuming that's a recent pic their using, I hope she continues to let her hair grow more Davina-ish for the summer, partly because it looks sexy on her (but then so does everything), but mostly because it'll feel like Davina grew an interest in the show, lost her spiteful streak and came back.

Bit disappointed. I liked Alice's wit and its overkill with Emma, hopefully it's a small role. I like her but if she's always there it'll get irritating.

I like the sound of a less tacky show, that's a positive. But this is channel 5 so that probably involves getting Rebecca Loos to do her own segment with a pig.

Because let's face it her voice isn't easy on the ears once she starts.

Like I said, she's a good host and I like her but we don't want her all over everything. There is such a thing as overkill. I didn't even like Davina doing Big Mouth and that was only once a week, because I like variety.

I did too, I like the idea of taking the show a bit more upmarket though recently it hasn't been quite as cringey as iit has been in the past. It is a good opportunity to give it a shake up. Not Kate Walsh as second host though please never took to her on the panel.

The problem they will find with making it more 'upmarket' now is that they will push away a lot of viewers and will have to do a lot of advertising and work to ensure new viewers are attracted to the show.

After 2 years of it being the same, people have got used to it. Some people see it as tacky and avoid it, and others see it as tacky and watch it because I don't know, people like that kinda thing I guess.

Ideally I'd rather see them ditch the whole BOTS format and introduce a new show. That way an 'upmarket' program that's known as that from the start will attract the right viewers. Trying to change the direction of a show 2 years since it first broadcast is a bit risky in my eyes.

_

I'm not too fussed on Emma doing everything. Might be a bit overkill. I found Davina doing Big Mouth over on C4 overkill. This could go the same way. Fingers crossed they get it right though and ensure things are balanced as to not bore viewers.

As was said on DS, BOTS's viewers are fans, as long as it isn't too much more upmarket than the main show (I think we'll see more of BBLB injected into it, which was always the classier of the two spin-off BOTS was intended to be a hybrid of), they'll tune in. Re: the format, we don't know that they won't ditch it and just keep the name. It sounds like at the very least significant changes will be made to the existing format.

No doubt they'll be replaced by Natalie Cassidy and Rylan Clarke. :bored:

I don't think they got rid of him? I thought he quit.

The problem they will find with making it more 'upmarket' now is that they will push away a lot of viewers and will have to do a lot of advertising and work to ensure new viewers are attracted to the show.

After 2 years of it being the same, people have got used to it. Some people see it as tacky and avoid it, and others see it as tacky and watch it because I don't know, people like that kinda thing I guess.

Ideally I'd rather see them ditch the whole BOTS format and introduce a new show. That way an 'upmarket' program that's known as that from the start will attract the right viewers. Trying to change the direction of a show 2 years since it first broadcast is a bit risky in my eyes.

_

I'm not too fussed on Emma doing everything. Might be a bit overkill. I found Davina doing Big Mouth over on C4 overkill. This could go the same way. Fingers crossed they get it right though and ensure things are balanced as to not bore viewers.

Very good point. They're complete and utter brainless bellends, they don't think things through.

The show is called 'Bit on the Side' I mean FFS how much more tacky can you get? There's nothing upmarket about a title like that at all, so lets no try and get all serious all of a sudden just because they've realised how sh*te BOTS has been for the past 2 years.

If they can't get the name of Big Brother's Little Brother - for whatever copyright reasons, then make a new title altogether.

'Big Brother's Little Sister' - makes sense, as Emma is fronting it again.

Or scrap the whole alliteration thing and call it something like 'Big Brother Extra' or 'Big Brother Plus' etc

You want changes, then whine when they do.

There's no pleasing anyone on here. It's a forum. Nobody will ever be happy. I mean one says they dislike something and everyone follows really...

If they are trying to be more ''upmarket'', they should change the name tbh. Bit on the Side just sounds as tacky as hell

If it counts for anything I'm very happy they are trying to give BOTS some worth.

Also, what is everyone's problem with Iain Lee? He would fit the job to a tee.

On the plus side chuffed we've still got @Emma_Willis (if reports are true) + looking forward to seeing which new presenters I get to insult

Luke Anderson @LukeA_BB 6h
@ianiansymes @emma_willis who could they be I wonder

I think it should go a bit upmarket and bring back more credibility to the show. I am sick of us relying on stupidity all the time to get some giggles. I would love decent presenters please. Like Jeff Brazier. Maybe Kate Walsh but I think we do need a male presenter too. Ian Lee is good. Just good all round presenters with at least a few brain cells.

I want psychologists to come on the show regularly too. Judi James please :love: Thanks!

Oh.. I wouldn't mind Luke Marsden maybe hosting the show. I think some ex housemates need to be given a chance. The ones who can string a sentence together though.

17-04-2013, 05:55 PM
Actually like I said before Chris Moyles would bring some credibility to BBBOTS. And of course Dawn French would be a good presenter :love:

Marsh.
17-04-2013, 05:56 PM
No. No ex housemates, people who are actual presenters please.

Also Jeff Brazier and Kate Walsh aren't upmarket. OK TV tosh.

True. They are not. But it's heading in the right direction.

I rather have Chris Moyles, Dawn French and Iain Lee to them two though.

Don't understand why people suddenly think it's acceptable to have ex reality contestants as a host. Presenting is a skilled job, being on a reality show doesn't qualify you for that role. It just screams cheap and tacky.

Luke definitely deserves to be a panellist though. The best ex housemates deserve to come back than shunning them out. People have to start a career from somewhere. Brian Dowling until now.. has done well for himself. Kate Lawler and Jon Tickle have.

I think if we even gave Luke Marsden a chance as a presenter he could do really well. Or Kenneth Tong :love:

Marsh.
17-04-2013, 06:07 PM
They're not shunned though. Ex housemates come on as a guest all the time. Even the ones who earn money slagging the show off to the press (looking at you Kemal and Narinder). Once a fame *****, always a fame *****.

Doesn't mean they should be given actual jobs.

The same Sun newspaper that correctly reported that Emma would replace Brian two weeks before it happened?

The Sun doesn't care about Big Brother enough to make stories up any more

Besides, Jamie and Alice have confirmed they've left on Twitter

Once again thanks for all the kind message re: BBBOTS. Had no idea so many would be so annoyed about it!

Might just do my own phone in segment online for the hell of it.


I have a feeling he didn't leave of his own accord :suspect:

The Sun usually bashes the show doesn't it? Nice to see a bit of a neutral story from them hopefully they promote it a bit more with the change up. It is certainly better than that rag that Dirty Dick owns. :p

Brian is still the King of Big Brother. He won 2 series, and hosted 6 series. He'll always be a BB Legend.

Emma doesn't give a flying **** about BB, she's just hoping to be like russell and dermot and go on to something bigger.

Vanessa

I don't know, Alex. She seems to genuinely love the show. But i always thought she wasn't suited to BOTS. She'll be a great host. :hugesmile:
