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.

Davina wasn't camp?? lol, okay, well i think she's the most camp female i've ever seen in my life. Davina acts like a camp gay man, imo. everything she did was exagerrated and ott.

Because being extremely camp and being gay are exactly the same thing right?

He seems like a nice guy but as a host I just haven't warmed to him. I have a massive crush on Emma Willis, as bad as BOTS is, so I say give the job to her.

I can't see him lasting long to tell you the truth. In fact, i belive we may see a new host from August this year. (August/July, whenever the new series starts)

No chance they lose him for the summer series, as much as a lot wish for change. The show has only been gaining viewers, not losing them, the format will probably stay relatively the way we've seen for the past 3 BB's(2 CBBs and 1 normal.) In the meantime, who could be the replacement besides the obvious Emma W.? How bout Andrew Stone? Or could Jamie East handle it? He has the audacity and the confidence. Or *or!* what about a co-hosting of both Emma and Jamie? OK, that might be a bit odd. But it's something, it may even be TV gold. Leave Alice to tend BOTS until she's slightly more grizzled and ripe for the main show.

It is not campness I object to but the fact that he is useless, absoluely wooden and his bias shows, they can surely do better than him - it is probably because he is so cheap.

I think he's ridiculously awful at presenting, he isn't funny and his whole 'gay in your face' approach to presenting is really awkward and makes me, and so many others, cringe.

To sum that all up, get rid of him, because he is so bad at presenting.

Brian takes sh!tness and bias to new levels.

Brian asks Nicola about the fight and when Nicola says it's down to Denise being a really bad drunk (true fact) he cuts her off.
