Dermot O'Dreary
 

Where does he hide for nine months each year? Davina always seems to be working, but O'Dreary pretty much disappears. I know he does a radio show, but anyone can read a script while a studio engineer changes discs and twiddles a few nobs. So, what else does BB's weakest link do with his time?

I havent got a clue, He does a radio station yes on BBC Radio 2 but apart from that, No idea.

Havent a clue by the way is anyone watching that program hes having a baby cos its presented by Davina and I have hardly seen her present anything else apart from Big Bruv although I have seen a couple of episodes of Dont Try This At Home

Believe me textbex she'll be rubbish. I hope she surprises me. Not that I'll be watching it.

yep good question charlotte i have asked that question so many times is its as if he only works for 10 weeks per year

Does Dermot need to work? not really, he gets paid loads for just doing BBLB.

It would be great to see him presenting other things throughout the year as well though, hes a cool guy.

yeah i like him a lot very funny guy

Oh I love Dermot, I know he has his own radio show on Radio 2. Not sure about what else he does though.

He's okay in small doses, but the way he exaggerates his facial expression all the time gets on my nerves.

Dermots a funny dude i spose. Hes a good presenter.

I prefer Russell. His OTT-ness is funny. But hey, each to their own and all that.:thumbs:

I think Russell would be better with the crowds than Dermot on eviction night. He is more down to earth and not frightened to tell people to shut up.

Yeah, Dermot's a bit too tactful, isn't he?

Yes that is true Fangz

he is a bit.... and with a chanting crowd being tactful not going to work. During the party show he said was going to get someone else in to sort out the fights. You can't do that on eviction night.

She's done quite a lot of tv, besides BB. Streetmate, Reborn In The USA, Stars In Their Eyes, The Brits, A Bear's Tail, Comic Relief, Oblivious, Pride Of Britain Awards, The BAFTA Awards, The Vault, Love On A Saturday Night, Pop Stars: The Rivals - and Sex And Shopping, Prickly Heat & God's Gift before BB, too.

Apparently, Dermot has also presented: Party In The Park 2000, SAS: Are You Tough Enough? (2002), Recovered (2002), Shattered (2004) and Generation Jedi (2005). Other than the SAS thing, I don't remember any of those at all. He also did T4 and The Bigger Breakfast before BBLB, too.

Dermot did Shattered...lol what a piece of crap that was, but I like Dermot!

I like Dermot, but I prefer Russell Brand. Shattered was quite good I thought.

his work for bblb and radio 2 probably mean he doesent need to do much else.

id take it easy too if i was in his position

I don't think that he 'takes it easy' by choice. It's more a case of nobody actually wanting to employ him, because he's really not very good at presenting at all.

Dermot's hardly talented is he? Not the worst presenter, but nothing special.

I agree, he's not exactly fantastic is he?

Nope, not fantastic at all, which is a shame. BBLB could be so much better with a better presenter.

Nice avatar Fangz, lol.

I prefer yours, jrc. :bigsmile:
