The Games viewers divided over Holly Willoughby

The fact that Holly is hosting the Games has proven to be a pretty controversial decision amongst some viewers.

“No surprise Holly’s presenting it either, gets where [bleeping] sand can’t, absolutely no connection to sport whatsoever either,” one viewer tweeted on Monday night (May 9).
