I've just noticed in Bex's and Luke's interviews that she kind of...tried to make them insult people who they didn't like - where as she doesn't normally do that. Especially with Rebecca's interview last week. It was really obvious she favoured the two as well....she was all over them.
I can't explain it, but I asked others and they saw something there as well..

I completely agree - it's not just you that has picked up on this. I didn't realise she was allowed to chip in with her views. Obviously she'll have them, but I thought she was meant to remain neutral - instead, she's made it pretty clear who she has liked and disliked recently.

It's true - but I LOVE it because I agree with pretty much everything Davina thinks!!
I totaly agree, and she was talking mainly about kat and rachel with both..

It's not a good position for Davina to be in, because she's creating more of a divide between fans of each group, I think.
And it may be good for you, but the public has decided to evict the people she likes and keep those she may dislike... so it won't go down well with Kat/Rach etc. fans if she insults them or gets other housemates to insult them by probing them.

Yeah, Davina has become too opinionated and biased lately. It's obvious that she doesn't like certain housemates. She should just remain neutral otherwise viewers may get influenced into who they like/dislike.
Davina has been brilliant in the first live show and even her critics recognise that but in her second shows she isn't so good and it undoes all of her work. She seems to partly gloss over all the bad points, which I'm not completely against, but she paints the most hated housemates in a good light.
I'm getting mixed messages from her though. The other week she was all defensive about Rachel then the following week she was laughing about her with Bex and last night with Luke.

The Divine Davina is way past her "best before" date. Actually she never WAS any good and she has a bigger nose than Nicole!!

Davina has said that she does not HAVE to be neutral but chose to be, but with her own section on the OS now for her opinions I suppose she can be more open now. Also I think Davina acts differently depending on how the housemate acted when they were inside the house and how they act when they are sitting in front of her. With Stephanie, Davina was more calm and tried to make light of the eviction by having a few laugh but it just seemed Steph wanted to see her family - but last week, Bex was fun, lively and having a joke which allowed Davina to be more fun and it made for a good interview.

Oh no, I thought she wanted to go and do some acting, having given an oscar winning performance on her ads pretending to talk with the mom she has ignored almost all her life.
Oh well, lets revert to plan B and hope a number 67 bus hits her and puts her out of action for a few weeks where we can all see someone else do a much better job.
Presenting BB screams out for a good stand up comic to present, if we needed the woman next door to do it, well it would be easy just to ask the woman next door and save a few hundred thousand quid getting the same results.

Apparently its her step mum but I really don't see what right any of us have to pass comment on the situation. Noone knows what went on apart from those involved so I think we should leave that part of her personal life alone and not use it against her. Its just irrelevant tbh. She squashed those claims anyway.
I really like Davina, crap interviewer but shes a good presenter. At least she actually comes across as though she enjoys the show which is the most important thing. It would have no life with a Chenbot clone or someone with no charisma like George Lamb. With their half arsed attempts at replacing Russell/Dermot, do you honestly believe they'll pull out all the stops for a Davina replacement?

The relevance was to her acting skills, and I have as much right as anyone to make comment on what she has put into the public domain, if she prefers a secret personal life then I suggest she do us all a favour and simply don't do personal interviews, seems pretty simple to me.

True, finding replacements has been a nightmare for BB, thats what I cant understand with the money they have for 2nd rate presenters why can't they get a decent stand up comic, instead they seem to think we'll simply put up with Davina:shrug:

She may be a bit biased; but, everyone has their favourites. i can't imagine anyone else presenting. I still think she's brilliant, but I will admit she does have her favourites.

Care to elaborate? I have not the slightest instance where I've got those vibes from her.

Why did Sylvia get probably the easiest interview so far this series then? Or is she racist towards her own race?
I think thats a ridiculous accusation.

What confused me... is in Mario's eviction she was saying to him "Did you know... Rachel actually doesn't bitch. She is THAT nice" etc.
Then with Bex and Luke she just did not mention that, instead she went on about how there was a divide between them, and then that's it.
Obviously she's allowed an opinion but when it questions the integrity of the show?
JOSHUAH!

She is very biased. Last night she said to Luke "We all love you" I was like, erm no we don't. She seems to speak for everybody and also she doesn't grill housemates enough - she ask's every question in this happy state of mind, like shes just joking with them.
I still think shes a great presenter though.

Of course she has opinions. But she has never shown them (as far as I remeber) on the show. Her interviews of Bex and Luke have been a joke.
She is very biased, The viewers know who she like ect. And she is only ever nice to the male housemates. She gave Jen, Syliva a really hard time
She's given the likes of Luke and Rebecca easy time of things because she liked them.People can say that she's not there to interrogate the housemates but it should be about all aspects of their time in the house and for Luke and Rebecca that constituted a whole lot of bitching.

shes crap
i dont think an interviewer on an ENTERTAINMENT show should stay neutral...they need to be able to speak on behalf of the public and speak the truth instead of acting all nicey with total jerks!
she is expressing more of an opinion, in some ways i like it, on the interview but idont like it when she just makes fun of the boring people in the show.
she always tries to be funny to on a friday inbetween each 15min section...and she never is funny..they really need to replaceh er
