Re: Alice and Jamie Matt, it would be Jamie, if either of them, that got the weekday shows, Alice is on Radio 1 the time they're on.

Quite frankly,I have stopped watching bbbots partly because of its format but Emma has for me got worse doing bbbots during her time presenting it.

No way could I see Brian accepting a downgrade of position, nor should he.He has to me improved,particularly in the last series.
If a change of presenter is deemed to be needed for the main show then so be it,if that is what the producers want,however it shouldn't be Emma,no way.

I like Brian as a person, but although he's improved slightly, he's a god awful live presenter. Emma, I'd go as far as to say, is one of our country's best, I'm only surprised they didn't use the expiry of Brian's original contract last year ass a chance to get rid then. They've signed him, then 11 months later done a u-turn. Hope this part of a bigger over all revamp and hope Emma doesn't chicken out of accepting now it's in the public eye, it's known she's considered it now so any friendship with Brian, if he's petty enough to hold it against her (careers come first), is probably ruined anyway.
