Default Brian Dowling V Emma Willis!

Brian Dowling V Emma Willis!

I reckon it's between these 2 for the BB host job.

You may not want either of them to present.. but if you had to.. who would you pick to be the host?

Brian? Emma? Or both??

Now thinking about it. I don't think Brian would be suitable enough on his own. But I think a Brian and Emma combination could be better than Emma hosting on her own.

Therefore I think it should be both of them. If not.. then Emma on her own!

Both.

But if it could only be one of them, then I'd choose Emma because I think she'd suit the role more.

I don't think two hosts would work very well. Who would talk to the house? Both of them?
I think Emma on her own will do just fine.

Brian on his own would look cheap and amateur. He just doesnt have the experience or status to carry a big new show. As a sidekick he may be tolerable.

Emma, Brian is horrible to watch. I didn't even know he was a presenter.

I don't like Brian one bit he is too attention seeking and would probably talk over the top of poor Emma and make the interviews about his time in the house like he so often does. I'd imagine a question like "Tell us a bit about your time in the house?" and Brian would start refering to his stay and comparing the two.

Personally,I prefer Emma, and hope she does get it, I would not though be disappointed if Brian got it either as I think he,with his internal knowledge of BB also has a lot to offer as Presenter too.
Somehow though, I doubt a man would get the job,this time round anyway.

How can a man who has literally thousands of hours of presenting experience not be experienced enough .

This I agree with what you say 100%

I say Emma as she is a massive fan off the show, however saying that Im not sure how she would do with a live audience.... shes very quiet.

That was davinas strength... she was great as a presenter, but poor as the interviewer of the housemates. On the other hand Emma is a good interviewer.

Neither really, someone new and fresh is needed, but if I had to choose out of the two, then most definitely Emma then. I am probably one of the few who can't stand Mr 'could my head get any bigger' Brian Dowling.

I think both of them sharing the main job and any spin off could be quite nice. They get on really well together.

OMG, you've been a member since 2002 but only have 378 posts? Fascinating.

I hated in BB10 when there was the panel of interviewers on eviction nights but I think Brian and Emma as a double team could actually work quite well when talking to the evictee. It wouldn't seem so much like a gang, but they'd ask the nitty gritty questions and still make the HM feel a bit at ease
