When the cat was finally out of the bag that Colin Murray was to be the permanent host of Countdown, colleague Susie Dent congratulated him for nabbing 'the best seat on TV' - and for a longtime fan such as himself, she was not wrong.
The 45-year-old had temporarily filled in for Anne Robinson who stepped down as host last year but the Dundonald man could not be happier that he won't be leaving the Channel 4 show anytime soon.
Speaking to Belfast Live, Colin said how it still sometimes stops him in his tracks that he is living the dream he made when he had freshly moved to London aged 24 and told his agent he'd one day like to host Countdown.
