I do not think she'll be very good, Ben had a special talent for it.

I think she would've been better on the main show maybe.

After a presenter goes from a show we always hear the cry 'It just won't be the same without so and so...'.

The same has been said of Blue Peter many times - things move on and are different.

I think she will do just fine.

This is getting ridiculous - this season's TV is just going to be one big seen-it-all-before mess with all the same old presenters moving around into other shows and a few hacks recycled from the colonies. I'm seriously thinking of switching off reality TV from now on.

Story here............

I don`t mind Ferne. She seems warm and kind hearted. I think she`ll do okay in Xtra-Factor.

I`m not convinced that changing the judges is going to work though. I would have much prefered Louis Walsh still to be there with Sharon and Simon.

Too right - the three of them were a good laugh

I never said that about Blue Peter, I was always really really excited.

I do not think the X Factor will attract top guests such as Zippy and George without Ben though, I really don't.

I hated all those daft little sketches that Ben used to do, it was tv for primary school kids, most embarrassing.
I guess he got a lot of money to act like a pr*ck.

God knows what Cotton will do . . . . .

i think Fearn will be great on the xtra factor she is the obvious choice I would say, I have met her before through my sons singing and she is so nice, she bubbles with personality, I also met Cat Deeley she is also so lovely, she is just the same on stage as well as off and makes such a fuss of people making them feel impertant i can see why they both got presenting jobs
