If I were to say that the Buzzcocks Doctor Who special, and Tennant in particular, made me cringe with its unfunniness, that would make me a bitter, whiny bitch, right? I'll shut up, then.
Yeah, Buzzcocks really is an improv actor's gig. JB is witty, but he'd run out of replies pretty quickly, or devolve into nothing but dick and fart jokes. You need someone who's had training. Lamarr and Amstell both had it, so did Hughes, Bailey, and Fielding. Jupitus is the music expert, but he's funny in his own right.
I don't think they're looking in the right places for a replacement.
