I honestly can’t see them both on that stage next year, they might keep them for CBB, to keep things fair but I honestly seem them replaced very quickly

Agree with this.

I think just have one doing mains and one on late & live, the pair of them on eviction nights doesn’t fit the vibe

They should either keep both or axe both. IMO though it should change, Will on main show and AJ on BBLL.

AJ will be there for sure. She is now an iconic BB presenter

[jones89]

I like both, they don’t really fit the bill for BB hosts imo, but who else were they gonna manage to get for an ITV2 show? I do find Will is a way more natural presenter, AJ can be a bit cringe

I don’t agree. I think she’s lovely and enthusiastic, but much as I like her as a person, I don’t think she is a good presenter.

It really is difficult to decipher what she is saying half the time, and too often I cannot follow the line of discussion on L&L as a consequence. It’s a shame as she does have such a great personality for BB, but the reality for me is that I sometimes get to the point where I have to switch off as it gets too frustrating and too much effort to work out what she is saying.

I don't think someone's accent is a good measure of whether or not they are good enough to present or not, but hey ho.

couldn't agree more ....think they should demote her to the L&L panel.

If there is another series.

Oh so understanding what a presenter is saying should just be a bonus and not a given? and it’s not even just the accent, i can understand other people with the same accent perfectly, it’s the way she says things too

But, if you read my entire post that’s not what I’ve said at all, so your comment misrepresents my point, and comes across as a little judgemental.

I stated that I love AJ, her character and her enthusiasm, and that I think she has a great personality to be a BB presenter. Therefore, I have given a balanced assessment of her skills.

I did not mention the word ‘accent’ at all, and I actually adore hearing different accents in presenters.

With AJ her accent is indeed broad, which is just fine. However, when you put that alongside the fact that she speaks extremely quickly, and that she pronounces her ‘r’s like ‘w’s and her ‘w’s like ‘v’s, it is undeniable that she is difficult to understand. And I have no issue with any of these things individually. Jonathan Ross for instance is, for me, a great presenter. It is the combination of these things that create a problem.

The issue for me is that presenting is about communicating effectively to an audience, and despite AJs other positive qualities and skills, this is just not something she achieves particularly well - in my view.

Thank you! I couldn’t have put it better myself.

I don't think either are strong enough. I don't find them likeable, I think on a show like BB you need to find the presenters likeable.

[MTVN]

They're fine, let's be honest there'd be plenty of complaints whoever was hosting because the BB fan base is both pretty passionate and opinionated. It's a much harder gig than most reality shows

[Garfie]

I’d love to see someone with a dry or cheeky sense of humour interviewing them. I just can’t stop imagining how funny it would be to see someone like Tom Allen doing the eviction interviews!

Exactly what I've said, either you keep both or axe both .

Davina was dreadful , she was overrated AF . I've seen so many cringe moments as I'm rewatching old series, series 10 was a weird set up with the interview with celeb & psychologist, and then Davina talking rubbish again on BBBM with 2 random celebrities and the audience shouting like they're in a club .

I don’t understand this concept.

If you and a colleague are both doing the same job, how would it be fair to sack you both if only your colleague was incompetent!? That would make no sense to me.

It brings to mind some sort of warped three-legged race!

Because I think it's fairer to give both another chance. I don't see any incompetence ,I see both presenters finding their feet .

Davina did BB for years and still made mistakes and acted cringe and unprofessional,but for some reason she's praised to high heaven.

Agreed.
