hm hang on though

A 'role' sounds like presenting those off-site VT's rather than being the host, I wouldn't like that...

Nah, they just said 'a role' because there isn't a single presenter. Alice hosted at weekends before and someone else will now, the most change I think we'll see to Emma's role is it reduced to Monday-Thursday or something. Hopefully though she'll soldier on and carry on doing five, viewers love her so hopefully the profile she builds as the main host will rub off in additional retention for the spin-off show, if only on Fridays. They should do ads during the main show like they used to with Big Mouth (I know they ran a generic ****ty one in 2011 and I know we saw Emma talk to Brian most eviction shows last summer, but I mean live "on tonight's show" episodely ads like Russell and I think Jack Whitehall did).

I hope you're right but I'm still not confident 'role' sounds like a minor part. Do you think they'll double up presenters on each day though (like Iain Lee and Emma co-hosting each day) and that's what they mean by roles, or do you just think the new presenters will take over weekends and Emma will keep doing weekdays, possibly dropping Friday? Or vice versa with Emma on weekends of course.

I agree though, her still doing the five shows would be perfect...it is her show, she does it best. Though I will settle for less as long as she does some of it, but I'd rather she did it solo than as a co-host, or as I'm still not sure it won't be...just presenting silly VT's...God forbid.

Wonder who'll be the new presenters too. Kate Walsh? Rylan?! Could see them two being put together actually.

Presenting jobs are referred as 'the role' in the press most of the time, I think you're reading too much into it.

Presenting VTs isn't a role, and is beneath the main show host.
