Dion Dublin impresses the internet on his Homes Under The Hammer debut

A little known man in the world of home refurbishments made a stunning debut on BBC One this morning, giving viewers plenty of hope for the future. It was an episode to enjoy for the neutral, with ex-footballer and Dube inventor extrordinaire Dion Dublin hosting his first ever episode of Homes Under The Hammer. We’re not particularly qualified to talk on the actual hammering of the homes, but we feel well positioned to say that Dion impressed. The people of the internet certainly seemed to think so. Carl Frampton was visibly excited Hold the phone! @DionDublinsDube is presenting Homes Under the Hammer!!!

This may cause a serious decline in my attendance — Derek (@georgeely22) April 13, 2015 There were haters Why has Dion Dublin suddenly appeared on #HUTH with the other presenters? Were 2 people not enough to discuss naff refurbs? #guiltypleasure — Frances Phillips (@fahegarty) April 13, 2015 Not sure about Dion Dublin on #HomesUnderTheHammer he doesn't seem like a natural fit on the show. — Issac Hunt (@PeteMartin2310) April 13, 2015 Dion Dublin just doesn't work in Homes under the hammer. Why fix something that isn't broken? Typical. — barry cashin (@BarryCashin) April 13, 2015 But there will always be haters. Fortunately, there were a lot more fans than not. It certainly would have helped Dion’s nerves. Why am I physically shaking watching this #itsverystrange — Dion Dublin (@DionDublinsDube) April 13, 2015 What Dion Dublin doesn't know about property development isn't worth knowing @DionDublinsDube — George Scotland (@Georgeyscot94) April 13, 2015 Good luck Dion Dublin.
