My main question would be is can Brian deliver the energy needed to present the show? That way Davina went about it and the energy she put in and can he ask the right questions from housemates who have just been evicted?

These are important decisions for the future of Big Brother on Channel 5.

I'd have liked a female host but change is good. Plus he's very popular with general television audiences so people may also tune in "to see Brian" which will help ratings also he's still extremely enthusiastic and "in to" Big Brother so really he is the perfect choice.

Yes I am sure he gained plenty of fans presenting The Mint on ITV at 2 in the morning

Brian will be just fine. I don't know why people have reservations about him. I'd rather it was Emma Willis as she would be the next best thing to a new Davina but Brian is respectable looking, energetic and one of the few BB alumni to have not wanked it all away for himself yet. A stand up bloke who should be good and passionate on the mic about Big Brother.

I see many threatening to tune out "to not see Brian".

I just think he'll be very amateur and given this is a do or die relaunch think they shouldve gone for more secure hands.

Regardless nobody is going to tune in to 'just see Brian'. He's not Michael Jackson.

I don't mind if Brian hosts. We will see what happens. I just think it's going to be a "niche" market ratings bag!

However suppose Davina wasn't a "big name" when she first got the BB job.

LOL I remember that show. Even on that it was actually the redhead woman who had to take the more mature lead while he just minced about. You'd think it was called The Mince.

I don't think Brian is a great idea but seriously, what does Emma Willis bring to the show?

She's not particularly intelligent, she's not funny, she's not versatile, she brings absolutely nothing to the table. The fact she's even being considered bewilders me.

He is given questions by the producers. No journalistic experience required here.

It's looking less likely I'll follow the show properly now. I would have been all for a complete reboot but now I'm already put off by this news.

Instead of refreshing the show it seems they're continuing to drag the already smashed up car that is BB on channel 4 further down the road of tackiness.
