Don't get me wrong, as a housemate - he's ******ing incredible and one of the best there is, but as a host - he's out of his depth and we all knew that from the day Big Brother started again.

Bit extreme, don't you think?

:o

Oh dear, seems Narinder has been saying to him that she thinks he'll be ditched...and now he believes it...

I'm really starting to hope this doesn't happen. I'm going to be so gutted if Emma leaves Bit On The Side :(

Sawyer 13-03-2013 06:43 PM

hopefully this will coincide with the big revamp of the external stages and the house structure!

Patrick 13-03-2013 06:44 PM

Honestly, BOTS is a sh*te show anyway. They could axe it for all I care.

The fact of the matter is, Jamie and Alice are MORE than capable of handling Bit On The Side by themselves - and Emma could easily drop by now and then.

The important thing here, is the main show - not some silly little bollocks show on 5*, and that is why Emma needs to be at the front. Not Brian.

OMG. Maybe just maybe, they'll ditch the cloud graphics too if we're lucky :amazed:

It's not just the clouds, the CBB11 titles still had the 'eye in the sky' theme with the northern lights. They need to ditch that concept entirely.

A quote from an Article I seen there;

Quote:

And while Brian, 34, has proved a favourite with viewers over the last two years, it is thought Emma can add some much-needed glamour to the show – much like Brian’s predecessor Davina McCall.

Brian's recent tweets to Narinder (combined with the fat lady tweet earlier) pretty much confirm it, she's booking a holiday for them and he basically said have fun without me (i.e. he's no longer going) and said he'd see how the next few days (Emma's discussions then his if she accepts?) pan out before saying that if he goes it'll be an "I told you so" holiday on Narinder's behalf (I told you you'd still have the/a job?). Hope Emma doesn't get cold feet.

mizzy25 13-03-2013 08:29 PM

i hope its not true brian imo deserves to stay, ive only watched bbots a few times and im not keen on emma

Brekkie 13-03-2013 08:29 PM

About time - Brian should have been axed at the end of the very first C5 Celeb series, never mind be allowed to front four more celeb series and two main ones. He's just a terrible presenter and he hasn't got the intelligence to carry a live show - the only descriptive word he could think of during the launch show was "amazing".

Emma should have got the gig in the first place though I can understand why C5 didn't want to go for a Davina in waiting. Now though she's in a position where she'll be compared to Brian rather than Davina, and that challenge is far easier to live up to.

As for Bit on the Side - remember Alice now has a Radio 1 show from Monday to Thursday and I think it would kind of devalue Emma's promotion if she carried on with BOTS, so a new team would be required - although personally I'd replace it with an hour of live streaming each night.


Just hope now that C5 have finally found their axe they might swing it in Marcus's direction to - at least Brian could only ruin one show a week rather than all seven.

Who published the article with Brian being a fan favourite host, all he ever gets is hate because of how useless and wooden he is!

dizzy bint 13-03-2013 09:13 PM

I'll be sorry to see him go, but it may be time for him to move on in any event. It never really suited him, he's much better with someone to bounce off. I've no doubt something else will come along quickly to replace it, he's rarely been unemployed since BB2.

He has 260K+ followers on Twitter, not bad for someone who came late to it after UBB. He's been getting a lot of supportive tweets on there.

iRyan 13-03-2013 09:20 PM

OMG OMG OMG OMG

OMG

OMG

YES

YES YES YES

This is what i've been ****ing waiting for.

I would love it if Jamie and Alice were joint main hosts of BOTS.

Munchkins 13-03-2013 09:26 PM

Yez plz then just have Alice hosting BOTS, with Jamie doing other bits on BOTS.. perfect

Marsh. 13-03-2013 09:46 PM

I've not been a fan of Brian as presenter but I do feel sorry for the guy.

We still like you Brian, just not as host.

DigitalSid 13-03-2013 10:58 PM

No word from Emma yet, but she was at today's TRIC awards the day before the story broke:
