I must admit I tune in and out of BBBOTS since the series started mainly because I think Rylan CANT handle it. He is rubbish at presenting and now that he doesn't even share the nights with Emma he is on 5 nights a week. I happened to watch it tonight and I have to say it has to be one of the WORST ever.

Firstly Rylan didn't give the same amount of questions to all three panellists. I like Matt and I loved Sara when she was on BB but she was pretty rude tonight interrupting everything Matt said and some of the others. Kieran was largely ignored for the first few questions posed and even when he was talking the audience butted in. The guy in blue in the audience was one of the rudest people I have ever seen. Rylan should give members of the audience ONE SHOT at voicing their opinion or at most TWO. The guy in blue was very nicely seated in the line of vision of all the shots of Rylan standing in front of the audience. He kept harping ON AND ON about Marc (obviously a fan) and slating Harry etc. When a woman behind him tried to butt in he kept saying shut your mouth yet when she finally got a say (and other lady also) he kept butting in.

Rylan needs to be evicted from BBOTS. He is clearly not presenting the show in a fair manner and has no control whatsoever of either the audience and hasn't given fair time to all three panellists tonight. Kieran should have gone to the pub and let Matt and Sara ramroad everything. The only good thing was the brilliant Mat Richardson

[Withano]

He's genuinely the worst thing on television.

I thought Rylan was a great housemate and I was pleased he got the job on BBOTS.

Not so pleased with him anymore because I stopped watching. I just find him irritating as a presenter and I don't think he comes anywhere near as good as some of the others we've been blessed with over the years.


I used to watch the first five minutes to see what guests they had on but even that's too painful these days.

[Trasadkel1]

I only tune in for the snippets of feed that they show on the news section.

Who was that dreadful bloke in the pale blue jacket?. What an absolute idiot he was. I don't understand why Rylan kept letting him have a say. He was so rude. An absolute moron. If I had been in the audience I would have hoisted him out myself.

[rusticgal]

It's been a farce from day 1. It's all childish crap now. Gone are the days of plausible phsycholgists and proper debates about housemates.
It's gone way down...I hardly watch it any more...just fast forward to exclusives.
Rylan is useless...always trying to be witty but he lacks quality and control.

[Trasadkel1]

It always amuses me how they have the guests on who are meant to be commenting on the housemates and they have their pictures in front of them to see their names. Don't think half of them have even watched the show. They just want to get their moment of publicity.

[sampvt]

Rylan is a joke. bots is killing the show by being biased and crap.

[Macie Lightfoot]

I don't even blame it on Rylan so much but BOTS is truly unwatchable at this point.

[ThatsMyUserName]

I agree with the OP and have already sent an email to C5 to highlight the bad behaviour of both audience and panelists with regard to talking (shouting) over each other. Not just tonight's episode, but also previous episodes.

I was especially annoyed at the guy in the jacket, and so was Matt Johnson who went over to shut him up.

[Amy Jade]

I agree with the OP fully. I know it's going to be trashy and sometimes debate gets heated but the 50ish Irish guy in the blue jacket was seriously awful tonight, I switched it off when he started screaming for a poor lady to shut up and then moments later started yelling at a woman behind him also.

Rylan should have way more control over the audience and that twat in the audience who made an utter fool of himself should be banned.

[Rorkimaru]

I actually quite like Rylan's presenting style. He's having a lot of fun with it and the show is really informal. It's all a bit kitchy but that's a bit of the charm.

That dude in the blue jacket though, tool. Fair enough trying to get his say in when it was his turn but being so rude about the interruption and then not letting her get a word in edgewise when it was her chance. Just a floor to ceiling gob****e.

[the_answers]

For once I agree with you Rorkimaru.

Think Rylan is a great presenter !
Not everyone likes him but think he's entertaining, funny and very quick witted.

Yes there's some rubbish on there.
But least you get different panel opinions that don't fit into a scripted feel of the edited HL's.
Thought Kieran (for example) was great.
Think many of the ex HMs (not the twins !) are even better on BOTS too.

Enjoyed BOTS more than the main show tonight tbh.

I havent been watching it this year i just sky plus it and fast forward to the clips of the house and the news bit. Rylan is pathetic i cant watch it with him presenting.
Losing Jamie East and Iain Lee are the biggest mistakes ever.

Bring back Jamie,Ian !!

I fell asleep after about 10 minutes of it,, but even that 10 minutes was way too much for me, do they have a bar or something that the 'audience' can go to before the show goes on air? because that Irish guy always seems to be off his face.

I'm glad i didn't catch the rest of it now, by the sounds of it it got a lot worse, there are just some audience members that shouldn't be allowed there - the obviously attention seeking ones who just want to be on tv and try to take over the show in the process - I thought Paul was bad but jesus.

[alex_front2]

Kieran was spoken over and ignored and when the black lady in audience was stating her opinion the audience and panel talked over her. Plus the gay Irish guy who supports spoke 3 times and interupted the women behind him.

[Pete.]

Why is Matt always there idgi

I'm not saying he's perfect but the haphazard chaos is a part of the appeal for me. This isn't political correspondence, it's gossiping about a bunch of people locked in a house for a few months. It doesn't need to be handled with the same gravitas as a debate on sociological morality or ethical adaptation.

[crazycolaist]

I like trash tv though. Thought last night was good. I didnt like rylan from seeing & hearing stuff from x factor, Was like wtf when he got the bbbots job & I think he fits nicely with the BB team. Quite weird to see the oposite on here but I am used to being a minority now

[Robodog]

Rylan is a brilliant presenter. He has got better and better IMO. He is very quick witted and is a good leveller; whenever there is an argument brewing in the audience/panel wherever - he very quickly turns it into a joke - that's a real skill.

But yeah last night's BOTS was another annoying episode. It always is when Matt is on - he rarely comes out with anything insightful or funny yet he acts like he's god's gift to women everywhere.

And BOTS is always annoying when that desperately loud, attention-seeking Irish bloke is in the audience. I think Matt telling him to shut up was the only time I've ever agreed with Matt.

I love Rylan but I long for the days of Jamie East, Alice Levine, Dr Funke and especially Iain Lee.

[Moosething]

the BOTSIEs the other night were awful

[johnx]

He's no Russel Brand that's for sure.Brand could find surreal humour in the dullest housemate.Ms Willis had a certain infectious enthusiasm that just about carried the show.Rylan needs to get out of his comfort zone-he can actually be funny now and again.

[dyfed]

I have really enjoyed bbots with rylan this year,I have found him to be entertaining and funny but last night was awful,that man in the audience was out of control,he needed to be put in his place,even Matt got up and went over to try and shut him up,he was from Ireland ,just can't get that Irish banter...The panel could hardly get their point across for the audience jumping in all the time
