Of course my girls felt the need to comment on the fact that this was a desperate attempt to gain more viewers – an opinion which has been voiced by various media over the past few days. Well if this really was their aim, then hats off to the BBC – they’ve generated more column inches with pictures of Holly’s assets than any other show over the weekend. And I must confess, as a typical, red-blooded man, I am definitely more inclined to watch from now on!
Right or wrong, sexiness sells. If that show was fronted by a Plain Jane, they wouldn’t have half as many viewers, I’m sure of it. Personally, I have no problem with it. If Holly doesn’t mind exposing half her breasts, viewers are happy to see it and the BBC get their ratings up – it’s an all-round winner! Keep up the good work, BBC…
