Which presenter do you like?
1 of 3
Dermot.
He is a really nice person and he is the only half decent one of the lot. I think Davina should be kicked to the curb; despite what she says we all know she doesn't really watch the show.
Dermont should present the main show and Justin Lee Collins whould present BBLB.

Dermot - the most natural of the three
Davina - rubbish - get rid of her - her presentational style and interviewing abilities are worse than those of my local TV weathergirl .....
Russell - he's out of harm's way on E4 !!!!!

Dermot at least comes over as being genuine - whether he is or not only he knows. But he seems really nice - and he cares about the housemates.
Davina is getting worse. The false drama and the whole "I'm feeling eeeeeeeeevil" is annoying as hell, and so obviously false. I didn't like her on MTV, but she seemed to have improved somewhat. But on this latest series...can't wait to see the back of her.

I voted for Dermot
He's a really nice guy and I haven't liked the way Davina has handled the interviews this year. I'd like Dermot to be given a chance on the main show.

I think Davinas part is probs more scripted than the rest...because Endemol know that more people will be watching the live evictions etc, so that she has less of a free reign
Dermot has a later night spot, where he can get away with more..ie, showing the "porn" clips of Caprice....and then they can edit it for the earlier slot shown next day
Russell doesn't seem to be scripted at all...and as he is only on E4, less people will watch it...so he can just go off at a tangent whenever he wants

Dermot for me. 
His style is far more relaxed and the evictees seem much more comfortable on his show.

I also looked for the 4th option ... none of the above.
Davina - fake, puppet, simpleton who has lost any interview skills
Dermott - thinks BBLB is a saturday morning kiddies show
Russel - clever, but unwatchable in this format

I agree - none of the above would have been my choice, had it been there! As the lesser of three evils, I picked Dermot, but I think he's pretty awful now.
I adore Dermot and would cut off my right hand (but not my left one) to see him on our screens more... but I don't think he could handle the big live shows in the same way Davina can. Yeah she is scripted quite often, but especially on finale night she comes into her own. I would love it if Davina (this is gonna sound awful) got sick for a week, as I'm assuming Dermot would be the one to step in and it would be very interesting to watch how he coped.
I prefer Dermot. Rather suspect Davina is an Endemol person, so has to go by the format
If Dermot is an Endemol puppet he carries it off slightly better.

I don't think Dermot would make the transition to BB that well. I feel he exaggerates and hides behind a facade of sorts, often overstating. He's a bit bland like Jeremy Edwards, his "buddy".

I think you will find the poll is 'Who is your favourite BB presenter' not 'Who do you think would make the best BB presenter'. Or was that just your way of getting a sly dig in at Jeremy ??

well davina hid behind her buddy lisa
Dermot has a free and easy show, he gets more airtime than davina, so i think that most people are meant to like him anyway. He gets a nightly show, and half an hour to interview who he wants.
Davina has to be hard hitting, she has about 10-12 minutes to interview the evictee. So her job is much harder and more presure.

Davina - cos when she has her moments they are classic and priceless. I can live through the slight hiccoughs or rubbishy interviews when they happen. It takes two to interview and is not always down to the interviewer - did you ever see the Parkinson interview with Meg Ryan? That wasn't entirely Parky's fault - likewise with what Davina has to work with. I think she is great and it is important to say so and be proud of it!
Dermot is alright and well suited to his slot. He does well enough but don't think I'd enjoy him doing the BB slot. He is too corny, too over-scripted and strained.
As for Russell - bless him, I'm sure his mother must but he seems to me to be so out of his depth. I can't believe he even made it to this Poll as a contender. Will someone be kind to him and transfer him to some kids show? On second thoughts...... maybe off TV altogether. Just who is he banging to get this job?!

dermot! He is a fan of the show and he does actually seem interested in what the housemates have to say! I also think he does a brilliant job considering he's on every week day!

Agreed..He is definitely the kinder face of BB nowadays.
Davina is just cringeworthy. She was ok in the earlier BBs but since BB gets Evil (Read BB gets desperate), has become appalling.
It is not evil. It is silly, childish pranks that are sooo not funny...
