Yes but not in a good way. When Alan Carr does camp it's funny because he has personality and charm, when Brian does it is just cringe because he has dead eyes, humourless smile and is like a camp robot reading an autocue

Exactly!
I have no problem with campness and think Alan Carr's brilliant. It's the way Brian delivers it. Like a child who has been forced to act in a school play.

Well said. I cringe when Brian does the camp thing, also when he says "just saying", it's annoying. Although I don't dislike Brian, he's not really right for the job.


I've just realised, I don't think I watched ultimate big brother until the end.. no idea why I stopped though

I absolutely agree. Brian's level of camp lacks that certain quirky charm that makes it humorous. Instead Brain comes across very rigid, forced, fake and actually quite annoying (and I loved him in BB) which makes me cringe when watching an interview. He is not the right person for the job at all.
