That sounds great!

That sounds great!

Other than it being fronted by a reality tv presenter who is bound to treat the presentation like x-factor.

Surely this was crying out to be presented by someone like Brian Cox?

Should be good to watch and personally speaking I'm kind of glad it's presented by Brian Cox as his constantly happy tone really grates me but I'm sure I'm alone on that front as he does seem very popular

Maybe it will present a different side of his hosting skills.

We can live in hope .

I'd rather have anyone other that Cox or O'Leary.

Not necessarily. His music show on Radio 2 is quite good.

Whoever presents the programme, I can always turn the sound down if it's that bad, it certainly looks like it's going to be one of the more interesting programmes coming up.

Don't forget the reboot of Cosmos that will be arriving this year.

Ooh, thats sounds good, lets hope for lots of great shots from the space station - wonder if they'll try to get some shots from earth showing the space station passing over head as it shows the earth...

True.

In fairness, I caught about half an hour of ITV earlier and he was presenting with Holly Willoughby. He seemed quite sensible and grown up in his manner. Perhaps he has matured a little since Big Brother and x-Factor.

He's certainly aged! Mrs Nod had a celebrity crush on D O'L a few years back but I think the years of presenting (and listening to) the xfactor have done him few favours.
