Fame didn't affect him.

I watched on the opening night and thought he was not the right choice for the job. Even Emma Willis on the other show seemed a bit wooden. Best if C5 dropped the show IMO.

He's got way to big for his boots and to try to sway a public vote is bang out of order..BB and BBBOTs are abismal....

Fancy seeing you here, Kaffers

Dowling:  I keep wanting to pull his jacket down and hoik his trousers UP.

Norman Wisdom wants his suit back (and that goes for Dermot So Dreary too).

I've just looked up at the telly and saw him performing to the camera.. i so want to slap his smug pudgy face.   The were making fun of the shit he's been getting online too earlier - nice to know they take public opinion into acccount.

I can't help it... he's just so slappable.... i'm drawn to hate threads like a moth to a flame..

(agree about the suits btw - on both of them)

 Oh Kaff 

Cosiiii....OMG I've been ranting at the telly for weeks..WHAT THE FECK IS HE WEARING?*....I can see his shirt on his mid drift....

It feckin annoys me when he says "We All Thought" No you thought Brian. 

Answers on a postcard...?  Maybe one day we'll be enlightened  

At least he's kept Kaffers busy

Bring back Davina All is forgiven....no wonder he gets no work back at home....

I think the wardrobe department are trying to save money and are dressing him in Dermots old suits....

I think they share.  Some dispatch rider is on his way for Saturday's XF as we speak

My bed is calling;  nighty night

Maybe Jim Davidson was right about him..legs it.

How come Aaron fans always miss the bit where Brian says Aaron is a great housemate?  Sorry Stonks he makes me shiver every time I see him on screen.  

I think Brian may have just got the message. He seems less biased now, on BOTS.

Maybe Rachel Rice had a word! 

He used to present "The Vault"  an ITV latenight phone in quiz type show,   and that was a total rip off for it's callers.

I seem to remember Davina showing all sorts of biases as well - perhaps the job does that too you.

I love this thread! 

*is not, & never has been, a Brian Dowling fan* 

It makes me laugh that he's started swearing all the time on BBBOTS and then he say's oh i never swore when i was in the house, are we seeing the true you now eh Brian 

You have hit on a phrase which I particularly hate. "you have been a great housemate", they always say that, even when they have not been a great housemate. They say it quite naturally, like breathing. I do take a lot more notice of what people say, presenters use phrases like this without thinking about the meaning behind them. It's similar to people who say, I'm going to give 110% today, that means before you start you already owe me 10%.

Back on topic. I don't care for Dowling at all. An average presenter without any real charisma, nothing that makes me want to watch him, just observe when he has a difficult interview, he flounders. Much prefer Davina (although I do know from past years she is not the most popular presenter on here).  

I actually cant stand the sight of him anymore.

likewise Ditts... I just feel I have to point that out.. it's nothing to do with his bias, it's to do with him being an up his own arse idiot that can barely read the autocue...

I didn't see his BB, my first proper acquaintance with him was in Hell's Kitchen.. there began a loathing that was to grow and grow.....     (and stop laughing at me Cosi and Suze! )

And he says it with no true meaning Tates, well I'd vote for him over and over but the rest of them can go swivel....

Never in a million years did she show bias like Dowling....

Saw that Blizz, what a turnaround lastnights show was and as much as i disliked RR I thought she come across well....

Well to all the other Dowling dislikers eg..Kaffy....he won't be gracing himself across my tv screen again after BB finishes....

I don't dislike him, but I don't love him.  I have to say, even though some may not agree; I actually wish they would bring Davina back.    Brian has been OK, but I do prefer Davina.

So do I actually...  She is very pretty and has lovely eyes too.  I wonder if she has any Irish blood?  They often have those lovely sparkly eyes!
