Default why did rylan get the live BB gig last night?
And not AJ or joint hosting? they are both poor and aj is a pro-presenter as opposed to rylan who is an X-Factor chancer.

Is this an admission by producers that they prefer rylan?

No idea, I think Aj is far better than him

Aj is awful that's probably why.

But maybe they just asked them both and he was the only one that wanted to do it?

Yes.

Also Rylan has a fan base from XF. AJ is very likely disappear back into obscurity after BB14.

Josy, they are both poor. Also AJ is a pro-presenter and if she doesn't want the responsibility of doing BB live gig she ougt to quit presenting. All presenters relish big live gigs.

Rylan also got to be involved in the rewind task with judy james.

I don't know how AJ has made it as far as she has in the tv industry really, it's not just BB she's useless on, I saw her as a guest on the Wright Stuff a couple of weeks back and she kept stumbling over her words, talking rubbish, couldn't hold a conversation etc.

Rylan's adapted really well to the role I think actually, and seems much more suited to it, if Emma wasn't available I'm not surprised they went with him

Don't like to say it but could it be a touch of tokenism?

I agree about Rylan.

I think more people, for some inexplicable reason, prefer Rylan to AJ. Though I think liking neither is the general consensus. Sweaty box Ian should have done it if Emma was away.

What kind of tokenism? There are plenty of female presenters. There are plenty of northern presenters (Tess Daley, Vernon Kaye, Ant and Dec etc)

I hear big Ian was actually very annoyed about the whole thing

Ian Symes ‏@ianiansymes 17h
Honestly, he's been here 40 days and he's already taken over the main show. #BringBackBrian @RylanClark

No I'm sorry I disagree with that, AJ is actually awful, her poor presenting skills and her terrible speech makes it almost impossible to watch an entire episode of bots when she's there.

Rylan has actually done well since he got that job and you would never for a minute think that he was the one that had no experience.

I don't find either of them likeable, but feel Rylan is more suited to that type of work.

AJ may be OK with a pre-learned script plus Autocue.

I actually think men are better presenters in general (more spontaneous, wittier), hence why most prime time gigs go to guys (ant n dec, scofield, brucey, dermot o'leary etc)

She's the only black, northern female presenter. Ticks a lot of politically correct boxes.

Unfortunately they didn't have a competence box. Lol!
