www.bbc.co.uk/totp/news/2004/07/26/13171.shtmlAs you may have read in the press over the weekend, there's going to be some changes on the presenter front chez TOTP over the next few weeks. From the end of August this year Tim Kash will no longer be one of the TOTP presenters due to his growing MTV commitments. Meanwhile, Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates will continue as the regular hosts each week when Tim's contract comes to its natural conclusion. But don't worry, Tim fans. The dentally-blessed cutie will still be joining Fearne and Reggie to present the 'Top of the Pops: Alfresco' live one hour show from Gateshead this Friday. *cough* so growing commitments is the reason they give ... hmmmm

Do these people actually exist? i met him once and sarcastically told him that i watched TOTP every friday night. he replied, in all seriousness, 'thank god, i think you're the only one.' then he tried to take a picture of the two of us by holding my camera out in front of us. didn't work so well. he isn't the brightest crayon in the box..... |

I'm not convinced the bloke's spinal cord touches his brain.
His attempts at presenting in a multi-camera studio format are pitiful. He's always two seconds behind the ball.
Eg
Camera One
"And that was Natasha Bedingfield. . ."
Switch to Camera Two
*Cue seemingly endless interlude of bunny in headlights confusion as he works out he should be looking in a different direction*
". . . But before to the next act . . ."
Whatever happened to rigorous presenter auditions. Time was you couldn't get a gig on Blue Peter before you proved you could conduct an in-depth interview on a trampoline.

I fail to see the good news in all this to be honest. Any glimmer of hope was destroyed be the line 'Meanwhile, Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates will continue as the regular hosts each week...'.
It's like the doctor telling you the syphilis has cleared but they just can't get rid of that herpes.

According to my brother, he went to St.Pauls school in London, and was known as Tim Reginald.
Thank god MTV are now so demanding of his unique skills, but whoever said it was right, Fearne Cotton and that other one destroyed all chance of this being an improvement to the show. Its bad enough on TOTPsaturday.

Hurrah! But TOTP is still a bit crap. Why couldn't they just keep it as it was? Jamie Theakston/Jane Middlemiss etc...

The show WILL still suck though. I find the presenters so patronising, and well, god damn annoying. I much preferred it before the make over, now it's such a cringey show.

Thing is while Tim Kash might not be great, he's THAT bad and I think he's actually become more of a symbol to focus everything that's wrong with the show on when really at the end of the day the presenters are the least of their problems.
The biggest problem with the show is the set design, it's dreadful. It's just far too open and spacious. It's a massive studio with a few people shoved in and too much free air and the viewer can feel that and as such there is absolutely no atmosphere. Back when it was good there was (as with most good music shows) a more claustrophobic feel to it, like lots of people and stuff had been shoved into a small space (even though the studio was probably just as big as it is now) and as such it was more bustling and atmospheric.
Oh and direction and camerawork isn't up to much either.

More the fact that Tim Kash reeked of shitness! Fearne Cotton is too classy for that show - her and Reggie are great presenters - Tim just oozes cheese
