Good presenters with talent don't need teleprompters or need to practice.

The 3 weeks figures look very good for an E4 related show, and it was beaten some of those programme, oh you forgot to get T4 figures for the show.

But the number just go down and down... people voted with the off button.

Unfortunately most do have teleprompter, but like i said, it is the way they deliver their lines, to not make it obvious that it is scripted, if they had showed intially Nikki's perfect delivery of the line, it wouldn't of look obvious they scripted the entrance line, because it looked that way when she dilivered it right after the 3rd attempt, untill they edited when part of when she was practising.

But it still beat and made to top 2 with those lower numbers due to other programmes like friends receiving even lower ratings in those last two weeks than princess, Nikki, the links were already provided in DS forum. Another reason the fall of rating in the last two weeks, were due to football matches, and the last two were moved to 11pm slot, but did well for that time scale. It also got over 600,000 viewers in T4 once beating ITV after a long time, so you cannot say it performed badly, it did above average, and it doesn't mean success dertmines second series, because Russel brand had two more series, even though it was rating disaster.

And her delivery is crap.

How was her delivery crap, she did it quite good, once she memorised the line, the initial edit of her forgetting her line, was more of practise, but BB probably chose to edit that bit to make it a bit fun to watch nikki being annoyed, but most would agree, she is quite good at engaging and reporting.

Are going to still judge on the first part of the 2 second clip where she forgot her lines, because that was practise line, or are you going to look at the rest, she read her line quite quick with confidence when describing the location and what they are about to do, she sounds quite articulate as well.

She does steal the show from Dermot, because when she is on, the ratings for that day goes up for him, otherwise BBLB ratings are terrible.:bigsmile:

So your meaning is she should eat those hot spicey chillies with a smile in her face, god you do look into everything in her.

Actually matt I have watched it again, and the main reason she stumbled because she was distracted by the sound of the bus, it was nothing to do with her lines getting right, watch it again, and it will show she was intially distracted by the bus and traffic sound. Plus she delivered her lines perfectly, i dont know how could you say, she did badly or she sounds wooden.

The sooner Nikki disappears back into obscurity the better.

They should axe her from BBLB B-Team and replace her IMHO.

It would be a loss for B-team to get rid of such a professional hilarious reporter.:joker:

Professional? Hilarious?

If that's professional and hilarious then television has seriously sunk to a new low.

:rolleyes:

Farhead whenever somebody brings up a point about Princess Nikki you mention to them to stop living in the past.

How come you always bring up that award she won eons ago then?

And im inclined to bring up the past. Most of us have no other alternative. Whats the present? She has a column ghost-penned under her name and she gets about 6 minuets a week doing a small segment for the sister show of Big Brother.

This is not Nikki-Hating , this is my opinion , and its one that consists of logic - something you completely falter at , given your repetitive arguments , speeches with yourself , and constant rallying against members who's opinions were firmly set in stone against 'the princess' since last summer.

Traffic im told is quiet a prominent feature on our roads these days. Good presenters are not held back by buses.

Exactly. What about proper news reporters who are out there in the thick of it? They get put in all kinds of situations and prevail.

A bus simply drives past Nikki and she stumbles. How professional...

She is anything but professional. Can you imagine what she would be like to direct. Something goes wrong and she would be having a paddy within seconds. I wouldn't call that professional behaviour.

They are exploiting her mental heath problems to make people laugh. Her childhood has resulted in her being left in woman's body with some of the behavioural and emotional problems normally associated with a three year old. Is it really hilarious to laugh at people with disabilities?

And failing...

Well it takes talent to make people laugh and she hasn't got any.

To be fair she has her one angle. Tantrums. Thats it. But even that got old last year.

Very true, but when you have seen one you have seen them all.

I guess she could always go back to taking her clothes off in naughty photo shots to get noticed.

Then again theirs quiet a heap of better looking girls out their im told.

Ones with real talents that don't have tantrums I guess.

Have you even watched, why make your own conclusion if you have not watched it, no way Nikki looked she struggled, they edited that 2 seconds practising bit to make it a bit fun to watch, when it was irrelavent. Try first watching it and see how she performed, she looked very confident with her lines.

Lets not get pedantic about everything, she isn't a news reporter, I think your analysing is overtop and OTT when it comes to Nikki, BB did not have to edit those bit, but they edited those 2 sec just to make its bit entertaining by showing all parts of her personality, and I dont see how could call her wooden out of the rest of worthless ones, just by lloking at those 3 minuyes, she looks like she is presenting, she says her lines very well.
