Well, who would of ever though a show could be that bad that it appears it is Joe Swash who is holding it together.

Loved Joe's comments about Morse Code being redundant "Like Latin". I'd have thought he'd be very aware of it's medical use as he strikes me as someone who ends up in casualty a lot. Usually because someone phoned him while he was ironing!

I liked the old format, they should have got a direct replacement for Laura and that 'comedian' I like Joe, I feel hes funny and entertaining in bursts,

Chris Ramsey is also funny and good, but the format is bad, its all over the place, vikki and stacey make it terrible

You shouldnt underestimate a good host, its a difficult skill

Unwatchable.

But then that was expected when you give a presenting role to cretins like Vicky Pattison.

Why Joe Swash has had this job for so long is baffling as well, not one redeemable quality.

I would give Brooke a permanent role, she seems much more professional then the other four

It is absolutely dreadful.
Watched it for second time and it will be my last.
I say watched as I could not understand a word of anything they said.
Show needs subtitles.
All 4 of them should be scrapped asap.

Vicky Pattison, I really do not like and apologise but wish she was not on my TV screen and will not watch. I only looked at the end tonight and smiled as no sign of her. I thought Stacey was better for it also. IMO and got tin hat on lol EDIT I do not mind Joe Swash and do not understand the hate on here for him

Joe Swash is unintelligible.

Half the time they're not even looking down the right camera.

I loved Stacey's "Dats and Doshes". Funniest part of the show.

This is what happens when you try to get down with the kids by listening to partying 18yr olds.
Producers have no idea about who has universal appeal and which "stars" are niche.
Have they listened to the same advisors to X - Factor?

I don't get it? Was that one of those in-jokey, clever up-your-own-arse things where it's supposed to be dreadful for comedic effect?

Sorry, it is beyond unwatchable.

It is like getting the local kindergarten to make the show. The presenters are beyond hopeless and their audience ends up completely ignored. That is before you get past the girls' mouths. One is gurning and reminds me of having tea with my elderly grandmother and then the other, her mouth is so wide and her teeth take over the screen.

Has anyone complained to ITV. They probably wont do anything about it but it would be interesting to see their reply.

Though Stacey is not a natural lead presenter, she is coming across the best on the show.

She is being real to herself, sweet and pretty down to earth.

Vicky, who you would think should be far better, isn't that good, she appears forced and unnatural.

Maybe Ferne Mcann would have been a better choice. She has been quite a useful contributor on This Morning even to the point of making a documentary item about the cosmetic operation on her nose. Her voice is much easier on the ear and her presenting and reporting skills seem quite good. One thing is for sure we don't want any more of these MTV rejects from Geordie Shore and Ex on the Beach.

I like him. He comes across as a pretty nice bloke.

His 'stupid' character, real or not, is pretty endearing. He is not a lead presenter though. His character requires an 'in charge' person, preferably female, to take the p... out of him.

I like swash aswell in the lovable fool way but he should be doing the extra trials. And who is even meant to be the lead seems to be swaping constantly.

The game they played with the answer the question before was probably the worst thing ever put on tv.

And Vicky or Stacey have no timing for the pre written jokes, with Laura much cleaner and at least seemed someway adlib

Abso-bloody-lutely. I have nothing against any of them, surprised and pleased for Joe and Stacey, who are - apparently - married, but for heaven's sake WHO is this programme aimed at. They've all quite clearly been ordered to be RELENTLESSLY lively and cheerful and it's giving me a headache! I was never a fan of the programme and it's "down wiv de yoof" format, but this is really scraping the barrel.

p.s. Stacey Solomon has a fantastic voice. What happened to her singing career? (And, as someone has already mentioned, she IS incredibly clever).
