As a fan of the show I really wanted this ITV incarnation to work. They've got a lot right, however there are some major flaws. The hosts just don't work unfortunately. Quite a hard thing to pinpoint why, however they just don't have that special blend of being fair yet warm - something that is much needed for the exit interviews. Watched one of tonight's interviews and it felt really uncomfortable, to the point where it feels like Will and AJ are actually being quite cruel to the housemate. Davina and Emma had that warmth and felt like they were real fans of the show themselves (as did Rylan).
ITV also needs to work out how it gets out of the live eviction shows - rushing the housemate down the stairs as the hosts quickly wrap up the show is not a good look.
