Emma is a very accomplished presenter. When she stands in as the anchor on Loose Women, she is very fluent, and I would say better than the regulars.

As for Rylan, I have no idea how he will cope. Time will tell. I won't judge him before I have even seen what he can do.

Yes I think you are correct what you wrote.
I prefer Emma to Holly who just seems like a Flag on This morning now.
its a shame she didn't get the job from the off and Brian on Bots I think that combination would have worked a lot better.

Absolutely agree. Brian would have been far more at home on BOTS I think. His personality would have had a chance to shine a little more. The main show just wasn't his natural habitat. I think Emma will shine in her new role.

I for one wont be watching bit on the side. Rylan is not a presenter, it will be like watching an episode of Towie, unberable.

Only time will tell how they turn out to be like.

Screw the live feed. Ain't nobody got time for that boring shit. Emma is a quirky presenter, what the show needs.

Whingers! We are all allowed an opinion, that's why we are here.

Got a link to where you managed to watch BBOTS before it was even filmed? Since a word like 'shambolic' implies you've actually seen them in action...

indeed, she's so bad it borders on the absurd.. such an amateur, never.. ever remains impartial and laughs at herself (with an extremely annoying laugh) and the faces she pulls are annoying, and comes across as if she is in love with herself.
[if anyone thinks she's good please go check out cat deeley or another professional to see how it's supposed to be done]

i find her presenting/hosting offensive to my senses.

that being said, i did commit to giving her a fresh chance in her new role which i will stick to my word.

i'll never be a fan of hers though, had to endure too much of her nonsense but it will be the difference between if i fast forward through her parts or not.

rylan, i'm not giving a chance, there's no need.. i know for sure i won't like him in that role and won't even waste time, i simply won't watch him.

i never heard of the new girl and so i will give her a chance, perhaps... i doubt i'll watch bbbots more than once a week really.

I've just caught up with this.

Is it official that that idiot Clark is going to do something on BB? Unfortunately for us viewers, he's got a very good agent who likes inflicting him on us for some reason. Scraping and barrel comes to mind!!

Luckily I was only really half watching it before, but now I'll fully not watch it. It was good while it lasted.

You're dead right mate. Brian almost killed BB off for good with his appalling amateurish so-called TV presenting.

Thank God C5 bosses pulled their socks up and sacked him.

Emma is probably the best we could have got at the moment. And Rylan, well I actually don't think he's gonna be as bad as people are imagining.

No he didn't, C5 were quite satisfied with the ratings and Brian had had his contract renewed. The new man at the top has made the changes but the show was not dead before he did so.

For crying out loud, give 'em a chance; the show hasn't even started.

Well said !

This is DSBB, where people call for people's evictions as soon as the first highlights show, are you surprised?

Emma is a good presenter and she is great at presenting Big Brother when she was On c4 and doing BBLB she proved she was worthy.

Well he almost killed it for me. The general feel of the programme went down to the lowest level. And I resorted to recorded the live shows so I could fast forward boring Brian.

And yes, his contract was renewed but that doesn't make the renewal right.

It's the mob that call themselves "an audience" who ruin the live shows, trying to interview HM's with that lot shouting and screaming is a nightmare, and IMO Emma (like those before her) will not be able to handle them.

Rylan is an ex HM We know from Brian it doesn't work to go from being in the house to being a part of the production team.......BOTS wasn't doing to bad in the ratings so why make such drastic changes.

I hope Rylan does well...I quite like him......is Jamie East on the show this year

personally, I think we are going to see too much of Emma, she ill have alot of power, and the thought of that silly laugh most nights will drive me mad.

Dowling needed replaced, however I still have concerns with Emma as she will have a bigger window to push her showmances that she is fond of

I used to like Emma ,until she started with her Outrageous Bias against certain H/MS ,when interviewing them on BOTS .The way she as a presenter treated some were appaling and put me right off her ,so although i'm willing to look at her with fresh eyes in her new role i'm also thinking grr lets hope she keeps her Bias underwraps

As for Rylan ,couldn't stand him on X-Factor or CBB ,but am willing to give him a chance on BOTS as i heard he got quite good reviews on the little presenting he has done

For future reference, try getting your facts in order before you start typing. It saves an awful lot of embarrassment.

No, just weary.

so... there are people out there who see her bias and inability to be impartial! i'm not imagining things afterall .
over the course of time with so many people not speaking on it and praising her without including that in the praise as a counterpoint and context i was beginning to think maybe i was hallucinating or something.
(not really, but... for the purposes of commentary)

from time to time she even shouts out, "i love..." the housemate, like the other year she did it with speidi and then defends them and stuff, then she turned on them and moved on to rylan and praises him non stop unable to remain impartial, and gushes over people like kirk nacross to the point of vomit inducing extremes.
and the way she treats people she doesn't like, for example in the incident with caroline's friend.. disgraceful and disturbing.
i mean, really? such an unbelievable amateur, not even on the level of a youtuber... how does she have the job over so many professionals out there.
must know someone in an important position or something.

i do believe she will be more professional in the new role as she will be forced to.
i doubt that role will allow much of her own personality and lack of talent to arise as it did with bbbots, she will basically be repeating stuff told to her in her ear and what not, and so it will contain her which in this case will in turn cause her to be more professional as a byproduct.

unless they plan to give her free reign to unleash her "personality" with the idea of trying to create a popular face for the product that they can market.
(they might try that with rylan, or both)
