Four main presenters just didn't work - have they done this to save on the guest budget this year? I think the show would work a lot better if they had Chris and Vicky doing one day and then Joe and Stacey the others and if they want the other pair to feature in some way, give them a bit of pre-rec stuff to do.

Notice they also seem to have dropped the comedian slot that Russell Kane, Rob Beckett and that gay fella with the quiff that was on last year have done in previous years - thought Chris may have been lined up for it, but they just gave him a crap segment at the end.

In summary, it was a complete balls up from start to finish, not to mention Vicky not even knowing what show she's on! I give it less than a week before they mix it up!

Bet Laura Whitmore was having a good old laugh at this too!

When I saw the line up I just knew it would be a disaster. I decided then I wouldnt watch and Im really glad I didn't waste my time. I used to enjoy the spin off show but, unless they ditch this lot, I will give it a miss.

I've never bothered with it anyway but Gormless Solomon and Vacuous Vicks sharing air time? Their voices are annoying and gormless has only been brought in as she's dating Swash. I saw her on Loose Women and she's dreadful.

Why do they need 4 people to present some crap itv2 spin off show and couldn't they find more annoying unlikeable people than Swash, Solomon and worse of all Jaws? ugh

Too many of them. I miss Laura, much more professional. Hope she's back next year.

Oh dear Stacey, the TVs presenter equivalent of root canal surgery. Is she only there to keep an eye on Swash who only seems to work for three weeks a year!

My verdict, bloody dreadful.

I thought Vicky was poor. I hope it gets better, but I 'm not hopeful.

It's literally just started and had one Ad break talk about jumping the gun lol give it a chance !
That's all it took for me to switch off! How 'Geordie' is that Geordie? I bet Ant and Dec are thinking 'bloody hell, can't understand a word she's saying' Not one presenter amongst them!

I found it really painful. I loathe pattinson and all four were cringeingly amateur. One to swerve this series.

Four people and not a presenter among them.

TV presenters are underated, not as easy as it looks!

Nobody can get a word in for motormouth Pattinson. Dismayed she's on this show.
Yep Jawbox Pattinson is car crash tv

I was glad Vicky won last year, and I've liked Joe Swash on the 'extra' show over the years.

I also like Stacey.

But my goodness, last night's show was pretty awful - Laura was a thousand times better than Vicky. Right from the start it was a bit cringey, seeing Vicky glancing down at her concealed cue cards so often. And she's too loud...

Hopefully as time goes on things will improve, but I can't see Vicky being excellent in a hosting role...

I agree. Laura had charisma and a good sense of humour. Pattinson is clunky, common and dire.

I thought it was pretty painful to watch, but it was show 1 and remember what rylan was like in his first 4 or 5 shows! Obviously he is know Ant or dec, but he is a passable presenter now for the right kind of show, so hopefully once they get over the nerves they will be better. Should have one lead presenter though.

I watched for about half an hour and then I turned it off, it was just to frantic, they all seemed to be talking over each other and yelling, way to much shouting, even the way that they were seated didn't help, needed one presenter to take charge and control the rest, Laura Whitmore was brilliant at this. Going to have to change format or it will be torture to watch. In previous years Laura had a calming influence on the other two and lead the show, someone needs to take the helm, or its going to be a disaster.

Pattinson got all the air time last year. It's being repeated this year. Very poor choice of presenter.

I'm the only one who enjoyed it then? I thought it worked very well - possibly Chris should have presented the game show rather than Stacey but otherwise it felt like four friends presenting; there was natural chemistry and a relaxed vibe. Previous years, to me, have been too stilted and overly controlled.

And this is from someone who thought it'd be a disaster! Mind you, for many, it looks like it was.

We switched off about halfway through. Four presenters is far too many and if I'm honest, I couldn't stop watching Vicky Pattison's jaw. Was she drunk? That or jetlagged because I couldn't understand much of what she was saying. Add that to the awkward moments she caught sight of herself on the monitor and would change pose to suit.

No, just a big no.

As I said turned off after half an hour, so didn't see the whole show, I will give it another chance, maybe it will grow on me, but I'm not to hopeful.

Urgh. She's just too self-obsessed and self-conscious to ever be a presenter. Why on earth did they even chose her??!!

Went to bed after half and hour, couldn't endure any more of it. Joe actually looks professional in comparison to the two girls. Didn't really see enough of Chris Ramsey to make a judgement. Please ditch the Vicky and Stacey - maybe keep the two guys and give the guests a bit more air time.

Its not getting a good write up in the Mirror - read on online. Painful to watch is one description of Pattison and people calling for Laura to come back, so we are not alone in our feelings.

I suspect ITV will give it a few days and see if it improves but I think they have lost a lot of viewers already who wont come back as long as those four are on there.

Why did they have to change it. It was fine as it was.

Laura was made an offer to appear in strictly and she made the decision to accept which meant she had to leave IACGMOOHN. Now that she didn't do well in strictly she is probably regretting her decision. The other story is that she was going to be replaced by motormouth Vicky anyway. No-one except ITV know the real story but the resulting show without Laura is a complete mess.
The love of Vicky by ITV is baffling, to me she has zero talent for anything except mouthing off.

I don't mind Stacey, but never been a fan of Joe. Can't stand Vicki, and no idea who the comedian is so can't really comment on him yet.

They need a main presenter to lead everything and then a second one, with a third doing recorded bits/the games. At the most.
