But watching Emma on BOTS, she makes it so effortless. She can be fun and silly without being OTT. Great at ad-libbing. She really would've given Davina a run for her money.

I don't think Brian is a good presenter at all. You can visibly see him reading the auto-cue and he just seems to try far too hard to make jokes and get the audience involved.

Emma is a great presenter. They should definitely switch roles.

Brian is brilliant. He's doing a great job and the ratings are good. He's going nowhere.

Brian is going a bog standard job and in no way can live up to such big boots to fill.

Emma would have been perfect and the rolls should reverse.

They gave him nothing to work with last night. He did very well in the circumstances.

That Alice Levine girl on BOTS seems so much better than either of them at the moment. Think she has a bit more experience than the pair - would have liked to have seen a fresh new face presenting the show and think she'd be great!

It was awkward watching Brian, Emma would have been the preferred choice - maybe there will be a change - or will Brian improve as his confidence grows?

I think they would just be better suited for the opposite rolls. Brian is better dealing with the people and getting people engaged. Emma is better as presenting where as she seems irritated with the other people in the set and has gotten stern with them to shut it a few times instead of using their enthusiasm to forward the conversation. It is like it is her show and she feels they are stealing the lime light or something...

Yeh that's what I said really. I think for the evictions you need someone who has some experience and has the poise and confidence needed. I don't think it helps to have someone learning on the job in this vital role, all you will do is lose viewers by doing that. Inevitably though, as I said, people will take the narrow view and just look at people they are fans of with the show but I think a wider perspective is needed.

I think he's very good at the moment and he will improve. Last night he had nothing to work with. The show was awkward and there was nothing for him to do.

Brian was their preferred choice.

Completely agree that their roles should be switched. Probably if Emma comes back from maternity. Not sure if she'll host CBB9 but definitely BB13, I hope.
