I totally disagree. I love Emma! And I really feel her love/agitation/angst when it comes to good behaviour and bad behaviour in the house. I always feel that both her and Rylan genuinely love the show.Completely agree regarding Emma having watched last night for the first time in years - feels like it's just a job to Emma whilst Davina genuinely got as excited as the viewers (well, except the series where she just flew in from France to host the evictions and it was fairly obvious that was the case!). History though has already forgotten Brian Dowling and Emma was lucky not to replace Davina directly, meaning to most she was a significant improvement on Brian rather than a cheap reproduction of Davina. That said I think if Big Brother was a good as it used to be Emma would probably be much better - if she's as much of a classic fan as she claimed to be she's probably dying inside when announcing C5's latest so called twist!
That said I have to admit I am very new to watching the UK format and I originally fell in love with the series with Emma at the helm.
