Even if they'd have picked someone like Stephen Mulhern he'd have had the "trying to be too much like Ant" criticisms thrown at him.

I am personally glad that they didn't carbon copy Ant's role on the show, but I do wish that it was someone that has a bit more about them than Holly who if you see DOI doesn't really do much on the show.

This isn't DoI.

And there isn't much to do on DoI but read an autocue.

Do you want her to balance a ball on her head and juggle at the same time?

Philip does most of the presenting on DOI and that's a fact, ITV hardly give Holly any of her own segments other than going to the next judge to comment on a performance, ITV treat her with very little respect on that show imo.

IAC are doing better with her, but she does need to project more personality imo.

I never said it wasn't a fact. Whether she's asking the judges for comments or not, she is doing a job as a presenter. The fact is the show isn't about them.

Do you want her to figure skate topless or something?

How so? She chats to the contestants when they see them, she takes part in the "bits" with Dec and reads the autocue between segments and reads out the phone numbers.

Do you want her walking a tightrope at the same time?
