'Australians like to know that you are 'one of us' (so) it could potentially work in their favour. If it's not authentic the audience sees right through it,' he said.
'I don't think Seven have anything to worry about as the two presenters come across as friends having a chat.
'These two have shown they're not fake and actually have a friendship – that's not always the case in TV land,' he added.
