Hamish and Andy as Big Brother hosts?

Updated: Hamish and Andy take to Twitter to deny speculation they will be hosting Big Brother.

It’s time to go Hamish and Andy?

Latest media speculation about the upcoming season of Big Brother is that Hamish and Andy would be fan favourites to host the show.

But the reports don’t carry any quotes from Nine, Hamish and Andy or even the usual “insider” source.

I’m not seeing them as a very good fit at all. They are after all comedy performers and this is a Reality format. Aside from not being able to do their usual sketches their brand would need to take a back seat to the Big Brother brand here.

Nine has already paid a fortune for the pair via their Radio Karate production house, which really needs to be justified on its own terms, not piggybacked onto another format that belongs to Southern Star.

Prefer to see somebody new who can be a storyteller with the drama, not resort to punchlines.

Updated: Hamish and Andy tweet:
We are most definitely not hosting Big Brother. We are in negotiations to host Better Homes and Gardens though. Ham has a green thumb. A

  1. Bring back Gretel Killeen!!! She is the one person who made big brother what it is… they changed her as host in 2008 and that was one of the main decisions that buried big brother in 2008

  2. Remember one simple thing. You want new all big brother show for 2012 and all new on channel 9. There for you want to see new host doing the show.. Not just host allready known on any other tv networks. You know there are alot of people every year wanting to be a host for a tv network either it is reality tv programes or series or dramas or even be a tv news reporter and reader and so on.

    Hamish and Andy are totally (imatured) and (disrespectfull) with the cheap acts they do. Plus they are actually infact been copycats of the oiginal amerian versions of stilly stunts and such.

    So why should we want these 2 clowns on a programe that has upsolute nothing to do with reality tv programe ? They both far worse then comedians.

    Comedians don’t just do stupid stunts.. its more like imatured guys who thinks they would get high ratings. I can’t stand them.

    Let alone see everything new of Big brother. Because If you want to see big brother show.. it has to be like it was all new just how it began with big brother series 1.

  3. Oh no please i hope there won’t be anyone like these or them Hamish and Andy taking over the new Big Brother show on network 9. BB show is not design for comedy and totaly not design to mess around. Otherwise the new comeback big brother show will aventually be not as good as its original style and there for the reality BB wont be as fun and as viewable as before.

    I don;t no who they are but i rekond they are both Hamish and Andy as rude as they come… doing rediculous things on thier new show in usa was pathetic.. They trying hard to wanna be the american version where people jump around doing stupid accident stunts.

    Please hope we don’t end up having these both Hamish and Andy clown fools. And when Greta kalleen ended her carrier on BB show in 2006 then we had to suffer with the Jacki 0 the the other both clowns obviously and BB show just didn’t look as original as it was from 2001-2006 So from 2007-2008 bb show was just not as fun anymore.. It was just rediculours having them host taking the show.

    So lets hope Hamish and Andy don’t dare take over a reality tv programe. Becoz they both comedians.. they belong in the comedy section not the actual BB reality tv programe. If they do come i would be so angry with channel 9.

  4. Oh no… defently dont want them both clowns to take over the so what big brother show… Seriously people have to realise big brother australia show isnt for the clowns and stupidity acts… Big brother is actually a way to learn others and educational amond each of the housemates.. Not a show to turn it into a comedian sort of to speak by these 2 ugly clowns…

    I dont watch thier recent show they did by these 2 clowns… because they only did that as a marketing sort of to speak.. i really dont no who they are… aint they just people who work from some FM station? thats where they belong. Or back in the theatre not in the tv studios taking over shows..

    I was so angry when i see jacki O and the other doing the big brother show for 2007/2008 they just acted more stupid then normal. Killeen was way better more straight forward to making of big brother non of that sillyness clowns and such comedian style.

    Big brother show is an act of straight forward without any sillyness and comedian stuff.. But i wont be happy at all if big brother brings jacki O and or these 2 clowns… seriously no way. The reason why is because if they are both doing the big brother daily shows.. all your going to hear out of thier mouth is jokes and silly things like they normally do… Comedy vs big brother show just doesnt sound perfect.

    It just ruine the whole show believe it or not….. People like big brother the seriouse stuff and educational and understanding and challange not just to fool around and act like as if the show was comedy. Well it aint.

    Sorry i amy not like the 2 clowns Hamish and Andy because they just did a recent new show on tv for the first time on channel 9 something to do some outdoor silly comedians doing rediculours things in new york time sqaure and other places….

    They comedians.. they have upsolute nothing to do of big brother. And if channel 9 wants the show to be seriouse and real BIG BROTHER reality tv show.. then lets just not have sillyness comedians taking the show because the chances are…. that people will just think that big brother show isnt as what it used to be when greta killeen did the show back in 2001-2006

    So if killeen comes back and does the show that would be fantastic.. she wasnt fooling around and acting like a silly clown. But after she left and ended her contract… no wonder why big brother show 2007/2008 looked alittle less big brother itself because Jacki 0 and the other just ruine it all. Well sort of but just rediculours.

    Sure comedy is fun makes everyone lough but not everyones agree.. Seriuously i have a feeling that big brother show will have all NEW hosts.. Not the what is allready available on channel 9.

    There are dozen of new young and old people who wants to work for a tv show and these people work alot.. they show and show the producers what they can do to archive them to hopefully they can get the job and work for channel 9 and perhaps…. big brother show.

    But they would choose people who doesnt act silly every moment or does rediculurs things.. people like that just simply dont match for a big brother show..

    Look at overseas big brother shows… the hosts who do thier own country big brother.. dont act stupid or sillyness… they get seriouse and smiles but nothing stupid.

    Having Hamish and Andy for big brother show and i will defently not be watching it. So it looses the ratings.

    Channel 9 hopes to have new host and new people. Not the allready people in place.. these 2 clowns they can do thier own shows somewhere els.. like they can do a comedy show…. course big brother show is not a comedy show. Think about it

    sorry for my engative feedback but im a huge fan of big brother… but when things change in 2007 thats when it felt less big brother culture.

  5. I’d like to see the guy from Talking About Your Generation to be the host. 🙂 You know who I mean! 😉
    Also, it would be great to watch the house split into 2 different age groups such as: 18 – 29 and 30 to 49 year olds. Both groups would compete against each other and the other age group.
    Imagine the secrets that the 30 to 49 year old age group would have… oooooo! ; )

  6. Gretel had lost her edge in hosting BB – and it is understandable, once it becomes routine they lose their passion. It happened in UK with Davina as well.

    I really dont think there is anyone who is against Natalie Garonzi having a crack at it. She totally fits the Y-Gen demographic, is an amazing live host (totally made Luke Jacobz look amateur on XFactor) fairly easy on the eye, very devoted to he rwork but also has a backbone and is not someone who just kisses butt and can ask the tough questions.

    How many readers here are in support of Natalie Garonzi?

  7. Can we all get over wanting Gretel back?

    9 are rebranding and going back to basics, why would they hire Gretel?

    I loved Gretel back in the day but as the years wore on she lost her edge and forgot how to host with an iron fist. It’s over we all need to just move on and cross our fingers they pick someone good.

    Not Gretel, not H&A, no one from the 9 ‘stable’

  8. Oh, for the love of God No.

    Catriona Rowntree actually wouldn’t be so bad – she has the same motherly energy Gretel did, and it’s been a while since she got some actual exposure (now that Getaway’s on weekends and freaking Shelley Craft is Nine’s blonde of choice). As long as she’d be able to be a little bit snarky towards the contestants, she’d work well, I think.

  9. I thought Nine would try to get them to host The Voice. Like Ant and Dec host some of the UK talent shows. They are wrong for Big Brother, but better than Eddie and Catriona.

  10. Gretel or Natalie Garonzi for host!!! – This is going to be a disaster if Hamish and Andy are hosts.. Nice guys i am sure. But the lame slapstick comedy is only good for teens and people with a small IQ!

    I am so disapointed i was really looking forward to the return of BB 🙁
