Thought Adam was great the other week, the best Buzzcocks episode in a very long time. It was like the best of Buxton, with his 6 Music-style homemade jingles, the YouTube comments thing he does in his brilliant live BUG shows at the NFT, and the Moby/Stipe game from his YouTube channel. I'm not totally sure that would work on a weekly basis though, he’s just too nice for the acerbic tone required of a Buzzcocks presenter (he said on Twitter his wife groaned at the "Mock the Week style" Pete Townsend joke).
Despite it giving us that treat, overall I don’t think having guest hosts is working for Buzzcocks and a permanent host would be better. The series after Lamarr left featured guest hosts, one of which was Amstell, so hopefully they’ll be able to find someone again.
