I am quote glad that kate has finally got a ITV1 slot, as i think she is amzing with the contestants when she hosted Pop Idol Extra! But i do think that when it gets to the live shows i will miss Ant & Dec!

Need a change from Ant and Dec sometimes.

If it was Ant and Dec hosting one of these reality shows AGAIN,..it would just be boring, predictable casting.

No problem with Kate so far.
She looks nice too.

I think Simon's wanted Kate to front it from the start. Those two have a weird chemistry. I think they actually dated in the late 90's. There seems to be some unfinished business there if you ask me. Just from my observations...

I liked Kate doing the Pop Idol extra shows, but I'm not sure how she do once the auditions are over and the public start voting people out. That is where Ant and Dec shone. But I do agree that it was about time Ant and Dec were given a rest (quite apart from the fact they are doing IAC in November and would have had to make a choice between shows)

I'm glad that Kate has graduated to presenting the main show as well. I thought she was good on the first show and am looking forward to the rest fo the series. Can't stand Ben Shephard though.

Grrr....I thought Ms Thornton was awful with the contestants on Pop Idol 2. False, patronising and annoying. She also tried too hard to be funny when she plainly isn't. She's OK at the actual presenting to camera but her personality sucks . Hopefully she will be more bearable as the main presenter.

I would like to see presenters who are funny and who wouldn't take the show too seriously. I reckon Adam and Joe as the main presenters and Claudia Winkleman on ITV2.

I can't stand Kate! I always find her really patronising towards contestants, and she's not very good at hiding the fact that she's laughing at a lot of them. I think she'll struggle on the live shows, as her style is very "Umm, ok, so, how did you feel that went? Um?"

Kate is a nice change from Ant & Dec. It's also a nice change having a slightly different judging panel (basically i'm glad that Pete Waterman ain't in it!).

Yesssss!!!
Top idea Smudged,Adam and Joe is an inspired choice...
A+J are quirky and would send the whole thing up beautifully,FWIW I totally agree with you about the "Patronising and false Thornton"
The one thing this show must NEVER do is take itself too seriously,I would love to have seen A+J's reaction to the "Talentless Twin's",probably something like "Well,that went well I thought?"

I love Adam and Joe, i've only mostly seen Joe though on Flipside and Headjam and I think he's great.

I thought she was really good actually. Doesn't seem afraid to say what she thinks. I have always thought she was a good presenter especially after seeing her on the ITV2 shows last year.

Ant and Dec were tired and overdone. If they do another Pop Idol series it will probably be the end for them as the Nation is bored of them now.

I really liked Kate on Pop Idol Extra and so far I think she's doing a good job of the X Factor...she's not quite the same as Ant and Dec, but I think she's great for the job, I like her style...

I like Kate and I think she's doing a great job on X Factor. I doubt whether A+D would do it anyway. Especially knowing what we know now about SF suing SC.

I think Kate's long interview with Will after Pop Idol was great. A real laugh.
