I was gonna say 'It technically is though, considering they only count up barb boxes and none of us are even included in the ratings'.

But then I remembered this isn't CBB8 - and we aren't getting 3 Million...

Just another reason to suggest he is the worst presenter ever.

He said it kind of half joking, he kind of meant hopefully that many people are watching. of course he knows the ratings.

The show was steadily losing viewers last week - shows he never appeared on.

It's at least two weeks since he said "justsaying" and in that last show he only said it once.

Crap presenter my arse - hes about the best thing this show has to offer now.
If Davina was so bloody good -ratings wouldnt have dwindled to an all time low at channel 4 that they had to cancel it - just like her rubbish chat show.

Quite right. If she was that good Million Pound Drop would have beaten BB hands down last night, but it didn't.

A presenter is hardly ever the problem. MPD isn't doing well because the format has lost its novelty and BB is doing badly because its rubbish. But Brian is terrible and has to be one of the worst presenters on TV. If they wanted a presenter that last presented a big show in 2002 then they could have still picked someone who is a lot better than him like Sarah Cawood, Zoe Ball, Katy Hill or someone like that. Brian takes scraping the barrell to a whole new level

I agree. I much prefer him to davina (in the later years). Though I do think davina watched the show too

He's basing much of what he does on Davina McCall anyway, so it's hard for anyone to say he is far better than her. The interviews (now they don't seem to be rushed) seem ok but I still don't like him addressing the audience and the house.

Presenters get shows based on skills and Davina has a massive amount under her belt. Brian has SMTV Live and The Mint. Its no contest . Whether or not you like her shes still one of the most skilled live TV presenters going and when someone inexperienced does it (e.g. Brian) thats when you can appreciate how good experienced ones actually are

And this matters to me when Im giving my personal opinion why?

I dont care how many shows they have presented. I prefer Brian.

That said Davina was much better than Brian is when she did BB2-6. She started going downhill from around the Makosi interview IMO.

Because I'm challenging your opinion by pretty much saying if he was that good he'd get more shows

Fine. He is in my opinion

Though I would have thought that was obvious. Clearly not to someone who is just looking for arguments today
