Dan should go for Crimewatch!!

Niamh. · 29-07-2013, 10:15 AM

I wish he would, can't stand Rylan lol

CaudleHalbard · 29-07-2013, 10:19 AM

He can certainly take over from AJ. The sooner the better!

I actually like AJ. I think she's nice and her personality is growing on me.

As regards, Dan...well, judging from his appearance on Saturday night BBBOTS, there's no way he's gonna make it as a presenter.

I note from the article that Gina has suggested he contacts her agent.

At least she's admitted to having one. Not something a party girl living on a £10k monthly allowance would normally have!

Just adds to the evidence she's an actress.

I believe shes a "socialite", which translates to a wannabe who gets paid to show up. If thats the case, the yes, she would have an agent. Probably the same person who made a "name" for her in the press, which gave her a chance at BB, which will increase her socialite value...

Dan doesn't have the right persona for entertainment - he's way too earnest.

He's fallen into the trap of seeing way TOO many gay men on TV and thinking he can walk into a presenting job just by being erm, gay and camp.

I remember there was a day last year when Graham Norton, Alan Carr and Paul O'Grady had chat shows on exactly the same time. Plus there's Brian Dowling, Justin and Colin, Gok Wan, Alistair Appleton, Brendan Courtney, Simon Amstell, the late Kristian Digby (RIP). Even Antony Cotton had his chat show for a while? Why because he was gay (Zzzzzzzzz).

If TV is so concerned about LGBT where are the lesbian and transgendered presenters then?

Chuckyegg · 29-07-2013, 10:49 AM

I already can barely remember him.

mr rochester · 29-07-2013, 10:54 AM

I did not realise Dan had been in Lad's Army...

LemonPen · 29-07-2013, 11:29 AM

Omg he's been on Lad's Army! I just found the episode of him aswell

Youtube video

from 13:33.

I can't believe it because, one of the corporals on that show, and even in that episode, called Richard Nauyokas, I know him personally! To think there is a minor connection from me to Dan, omg, today was a good day

Daffodil · 29-07-2013, 11:39 AM

I agree with Alex that Dan is too earnest to do a shallow show like BBBOTS. The other day I was thinking about what he would be good at.. and I honestly believe he would be an excellent NEWSREADER!. He has charm, depth and intelligence....so TV news producers.. get Dan on your lists.

CaudleHalbard · 29-07-2013, 11:47 AM

Too camp to be a newsreader. Lacks gravitas.

A lightweight show is all he'd ever get.

Dan isn't exceedingly camp, so I think a year's worth of gravitas pills might do the trick

Dan's exceedingly camp, it's just that the likes of Rylan, Graham Norton etc are even more exceedingly camp.

Sophiee · 29-07-2013, 12:03 PM

he was a great housemate but I don't think he'd work well as a presenter

Yes. He could be like that supermarket sweep chap.

CaudleHalbard · 29-07-2013, 12:11 PM

Dan could equal Graham Norton for campness, I think.

Not Rylan though!

joeysteele · 29-07-2013, 12:32 PM

He would probably be quite good at bbbots to be fair, he has a probing mind and would I think question the evictees much more in depth.
Not giving them an easy ride at times.

He would make a good presenter of the right programme,I hope something is offered at some point that gets him that break.
It worked for Rylan so hopefully it will for him too.

Agree. With a bit of training (autocue etc) Dan could handle BOTS.

Not the manic stuff but the interviews. Could do his relentless Detective Dan thing.

I also agree with you as to replacing AJ, not just Dan but I would support anyone taking her place on bbbots.

That is a good idea though, he could have a slot, going through their best and worst bits and then let him really get into the interviews,putting many on the spot likely too.
Really good idea.

Still not seeing many non-camp gay men on TV.

People keep referring to ex-rugby/ CBB HM Gareth Thomas as a non-camp Welsh man but he was really camp. He loved Girls Aloud for crying out loud and spent alot of time gossiping with hag Nicola McClean. Camp.
