Brian is far to over the top for the main show he could easily be a presenter in a spin off like Big Mouth though as for Emma she's almost perfect for presenting the main show she's got the looks and the experience as well

lets wait and see who they choose then, they've invested alot in this, I'm pretty sure they know what does and doesn't bring in and hold viewers.

Its all about trying to take away the 'guilty viewing' side of watching BB.

The whole 'hes just won UBB, now hes presenting' makes it seem a bit trashy and the fact hes very camp to appeal to BB's biggest audience of girls & gay men increases it being a guilty pleasure for other males (who Id say are at least 1/5 of the audience which is still a lot, ~400,000 of 2,000,000).

That wont draw a diverse audience, but will rake in more girls & gay men singling others out and that will then reduce the range of personalities of the men that apply for the show..

I wish people would stop going on about looks as if that has something to do with how successful a presenter will be. A good presenter has to have a personality more than anything else, look at Kelly Brooke for example, gorgeous girl but flat personality, her looks didn't keep her on any show for any length of time.

I'm sorry but no straight man I know is suddenly going to start watching BB because the presenter is hot, there is such a thing as porn you know

Its partly to do with the presenter not everything. If the show is crap then no presenter can save it but its about how the show is marketed and who presents it is linked with that.

Personalities appeal to different people. Look how well the Davina/Dermot days did, because Davina is a nice good looking woman that women dont feel threatend by and men can have a good gawp at. Dermot has that 'Id take him for a pint' appeal to men, and is eye candy for all the women/gay fans.

If it feels like a girl/gay show it will not draw many new male fans.

Just look at Sky Sports news.. not one ugly female presenter.

And the heavy focus on romantics in the house needs to be cut down too

If BB want more of a wider audience, they will go for Emma.

There have always been a lot of people that didn't like Davina. Her shouting and gurning got on a lot of people's nerves but they put up with it to watch the show.

I like davina in the early years because she came accross natural but in later years i had no time for her presenting style which appeared scripted and un natural.I like Emma Willis and she can present well but i am afraid she may be another Davina clone in time to come.I believe Brian will have the job

so annoying when the director is zooming in on phoney love antics when you can hear far more interesting stuff going on elsewhere in the house.

Showmances should be banned!
