    Emma Willis is so beautiful.

    I dont care that she is shrieky or a terrible interviewer.

    All of this is true

    All of them have been kinda boring. There have been moments in each but like, the other 55 minutes.... they shoulda shown best clips of each series.



    Yes they should have shown the highlights of each series, thats what I was hoping for.

    Are any of the episodes worth watching? Watched the jade one and it was grim even forwarding.

    I'm finding it difficult to comprehend that Liverpool could be champions tonight.

    Anyone see Brian Dowling’s insta stories? He seems to be hurt that they seem to have completely erased him from ever hosting the show. He referenced a part last night where Emma was asked how she felt being asked to take over hosting duties from Davina, and that it hurt him to hear that because he was the one who took over from Davina and they’re acting like he never existed. He made some very valid points tbh. Even if he was rubbish at presenting, which he was - woeful in fact!(which he often admits himself) he deserves the respect of being mentioned. Very odd!

    I didn't see it but that is bad form. Brian is a huge BB fan, just like Rylan was. It sucks that he didn't do a great job presenting but he is an iconic BB figure. I loved him in the house. They did him the dirty.

    He is iconic! A massive part of the fabric of the show. From hearing him speak it doesn’t sound like there’s any love lost between himself and production there. Reading between the lines he seems to be hurt about them going behind his back and asking Emma to host, and now pretending he never presented it. He spoke well though, he doesn’t sound bitter or anything. Just sad and disappointed and kind of embarrassed that they’re acting like he never hosted.

    Absolutely. I read a quote from him saying that he didn't blame Emma for taking the job but that he wished she could have reached out. He's so much more gracious than I would have been in his position

    I just watched his story. I really envy people who can discuss their feelings and not break down into a puddle while doing so. He just states he was hurt and gives his reasons in a very matter of fact and dignified way. If it were me my chin would start wobbling and my voice would be all high pitched :pac:

    But its exactly as he said, they are re writing history, and his feelings were hurt when Emma was essentially given his job from under him. And then for them to not acknowledge him, its disrespectful. I am glad he said it.

    Davina is on This Morning covering for Holly, career resurgence


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,977 ✭✭✭wyrn


    Watched Brian's stories and he was very dignified. He had great composure and he feelings are so valid. He's right, his peers don't respect him and that's really tough and hard not to take personally.



    This tweet from Davina really turned me off her. She's being a bit smart

    This line is a load of pants
    Rylan is the only other person I could present this show with. No one can argue that.

    Yeah she’s deflecting and making it about him as a housemate when even Brian himself said it’s not about that and he never needed validation that he was there. He was just hurt that they never mentioned his hosting duties when they had ample opportunity to and everyone else (bar Russell Brand but I doubt he gives a shlte!) seems to have been given a nod.
    They made out that Emma took the torch from Davina when that is not true, so take a seat Davina sis!

    Isn’t Arthur so wholesome...I just love the way they are so involved with their nieces and nephews in Kildare. Love them both too!


  • Registered Users Posts: 85,259 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Wasn't Rylan and Emma the C5 presenters not C4/E4

    I think I love him more than I love Brian! He’s adorable. And I love how he has just immersed himself into the stereotypical Irish country household with Brian’s rake of nieces and nephews and sisters. It must be such a culture shock but he embraces it and is always so happy!

    I know! He’s so positive! Such a culture shock exactly! L.A to Kildare! He’s also extremely handsome.

    I love Brian and Arthur on Instagram. They seem to have a great relationship.

    I know Emma did work with BB during the Channel 4 era. I remember her on BBLB. But Rylan is pure Channel 5.


    Rylan has tweeted about it. I still think it's insensitive leaving him
