BBC Breakfast is looking for a new chief presenter for the famous red sofa after Dan Walker announced he was leaving the show. The host confirmed he was quitting the morning flagship programme for Channel 5 News back in April.
In a video message posted at the time, Dan revealed he would be leaving BBC Breakfast after six years and said: "Hello, it's Dan here. I have a little bit of news for you. In the next few weeks, I'm going to be leaving BBC Breakfast and moving to 5 News and Channel 5.
"I'm really excited, but this has also been a massive decision for me because I love BBC Breakfast, I love working alongside Sally [Nugent] and I love the team there. But Channel 5 came with big ambitions, with big plans and I don't think opportunities like this come round very often. I can't wait."
