About darn time

So, is this really happening? Those public numbers are devastating toward Brian's cause in any case. If true about the offer, Emma will take it, she's not stupid.

It's definitely true, it's just a case now of hoping Emma has the sense to put her career first and to ride any bad feeling from his twitter fans and accept.

This is obviously happening now. It's just all down to Emma :worship: Please take it Emma!

DigitalSid 14-03-2013 11:27 AM

Helen for replacement BOTS host!

Just pay Brian off.

Jake. 14-03-2013 11:44 AM

Ah so hoping that this happens now :amazed:

I really hope she does take it, and Alice to be the BOTS host. It would be better to have a female host again. And as she worked on it on C4, she may know a bit more than Brian.

Yes, yes, yes. Eviction nights feel like a right chore with Brian's cringey one liners and horrible auto cue/timing...

Hopefully it will make the eviction's feel a tad more epic. They're suppose to be the highlight of the week, the main night and talking point to draw casual's in, with Brian as host he probably put most off.

If this switch does happen people, remember it won't solve the rest of the problems, this revamp better be pretty significant. Emma Willis is not the "Silver Bullet" to fix the show.

No, but it's a pretty big part of the puzzle. Having a competent, professional presenter lifts the whole show and puts it in a better light. One thing at a time.

^ What he said.

Plus, they're re-building the house so there's another beautiful 'revamp feature' if you wanna call it that.

Only thing missing now is Live Feed, but like Sawyer said - one step at a time, eh?

She's has to be the host, she looks amazing on stage!

Is this confirmed yet? I would say this is the most crucial thing.

They're not 'rebuilding' the house as in knocking the old structure down and building an entirely new building. They're knocking out the internal walls to give an entirely new layout, something that hasn't been done properly since 2008 I would say.

And as for it being true, it was marcus bentley who tweeted it, so it should be.

You do have a good point there Sawyer. Plus, the exterior is also getting a makeover.

Yeah, just concerned a bit, Marcus can exaggerate from time to time :L

Just to comment further, At least Emma will increase the feel of the show. It should be Event TV when evictions take place, not an advert for cheesy towie one liners, and borderline cringeworthy campness. It cater's totally to the gay crowd and wannabe's.

And what with the media showing more intrest now, then in the last god know's how many years, it's crucial Endemol/channel 5 get it right.

After the highly successful Jan series, it's possibly the best time to draw more viewers in. When BB launchs.

the truth 14-03-2013 09:31 PM

emma willis is the worst tv presenter ever....she simply cant speak properly....she also allows her own bias to ruin the whole show....this is the beginning of the end of BB

Patrick 14-03-2013 10:23 PM

^ Utter bollocks.

And the only reason she's 'biased' is because she is on BOTS and it's not a serious show - plus, I'd rather have someone who is a fan of the show and has genuine opinions on the housemates than:

A) Someone who is hosting it for the money and doesn't give a damn.
B) A Camp robot who does what he's told and thinks because he was in the house twice he knows it inside out, and uses Big Brother evictions as a platform to attract gay men.

Preach.

Hmm Emma started tweeting again yesterday, but only about Comic Relief, facials and steak and BJ day (Matt Willis is a lucky git). Brian tweeted a slightly worrying tweet in that holiday conversation, on the day the article came out they were discussing waiting to see 'how the next few days pan out' before planning anything, yesterday he was saying that it needed 'to be discussed a lot further!', hope Emma joking about on twitter rather than putting out a few cautious, rhetorical promotional tweets and Brian having seemingly perked up don't mean she's agreed to turn it down. Hope The Sun do an article to update us if so.

swinearefine 15-03-2013 04:43 PM

I feel bad for Brian, but it needed to be done.
