Jon Kay replaced Dan Walker on BBC Breakfast, following his departure on Tuesday and just as bookies stick their neck on the line over who will land the vacant job position on a full time basis.
While Dan himself managed to keep it together during his last show, after he was hit with some travel panic on the way up to Manchester; emotions ran high in the studio and online amongst viewers who were gutted he was leaving, just months after another fan favourite, Louise Minchin, quit the show.
Louise returned to BBC Breakfast to be one of the surprise guests for Dan's last shift at the BBC, with him also having hosted Football Focus in the past. As Louise joined Dan and co-host Sally Nugent, she told Dan he'd "touched the hearts of the nation," meaning whoever replaces him has some big shoes to fill.
