No, I wouldn't be surprised either. What with no BOTS on the weekends and longer BOTS episodes on Fridays, I think Viacom may be making changes.

There were also rumours she was stepping into Dermot's old shoes on xfactor as he's leaving as host.

Viacom have basically used the package they took over from this series bar Iain Lee.


You would think they would want there own team involved.

I would be shocked if sooner than later Laura Whitmore, didnt become more involved, I have seen her presenting on MTV, MTV are owned by Viacom, they must like her

Yes he does,as you say they are both awful. Maybe a new presenter is needed?

Enma going to X Factor and dermot coming back to BB would be a good move

I'm disappointed. I felt Emma had more control over the audience and makes it less about her compared to Rylan.

Maybe the brand needs a bit of a shake up? Shelf BBBOTS and bring back BBLB & BBBM (Russell Brand appears to have a lot of spare time on his hands lately? LOL )

Wasnt there stuff in the press before this series started that the celebs were annoyed the series had been extended longer than they'd been told? If so, perhaps Emma was already contracted to do the Voice for the rest of this week so isnt available?

Yes, thank god for that. I like the woman, she's alright on the main show but on BBBOTS i have never thought she is somebody good enough for the show.

She isn't very good at dealing with controversial issues and looks uncomfortable when talking about them.

I may be in the minority but i think Rylan is good for this show, he seems to have more control of things than Emma ever has.

I agree, and I am nowhere near a fan of Rylan & I do like Emma!

Viacom now have 5 months to figure out what ro do.

Immediate Effect sounds a nice way of saying she got pushed.

If she has left by Immediate Efect, in surprised she is doing BOTS tonight, but what happens tonight, seems like it gas been planned for a while.

I reckon Emma leaving BOTS has happened Quickly, and not something Channel 5 were expecting

Oh no, if there's anybody guaranteed to make me turn off the TV it's him!

I hate that he's associating himself with the anti-austerity cause and making it about RB rather than the rather more important issue. He reminds me of Katie Hopkins in some respects, it all becomes about her or him and not about the important issue of whatever they were actually talking about.

Yep, the clue is in the name.

Good. Pity she's not leaving altogether. She's so overrated. Rubbish presenter.

Emma's always wanted to be in the house - I wonder if that's tonight's twist? She goes in for the last few days and one comes out? Oh dear.

That'd be great--she's getting worse at BOTS and her "squee-ing" and party-line nonsense is really irritating. I dread her BOTSing instead of Rylan.

I'm glad really at least rylan or somebody new can try and make it their own.
Strange why not finish the series tho with only a few left to do.
I like Emma tho a tad too controlling.

I wondered what the Matt standing in as presenter sketch and Emma in the camera run thing was about last week.

I quite like both her and Rylan as presenters (couldn't watch Brand) but I do get a little sick of seeing so much of her. Rylan seemed to do more of the shows before this run, and we also saw more of Louisa and the "experts" before.

That was be an awesome twist. I think for the first time ever, I would be impressed with Channel 5 if that happened.

Both Rylan and Emma are presenting the main show tonight so you could be on to something.....

Rylan on Friday, said he was doing BOTs Tonight, maybe it will be a joint thing, just feel is has come as a surprise.

Maybe she is expecting, as if she was, she wouldnt be able to do the full summer.

That's so sad she always been the queen of bots and the original presenter. Hope she doesn't leave the main show now

I agree Rylan is a brilliant presenter, articulate, funny and very professional.

Completely agree. I have found that Emma has got more and more annoying this series on the main show and especially on BBBOTS. I'm glad she is going, only wish they had kept Brian Dowling all along. I particularly find it annoying when she tries to be rude and swears just to seem cool, patheric!

Speidi should present it.

Well about time too, she is actually not that good presenting Bots, her fake laughter and screeching voice grates late at night.
Ryland is much better for Bots.
