Regular BBC Breakfast host Dan Walker is leaving the show this week to move to Channel 5, and his replacement looks set to be a familiar face. Strictly Come Dancing contestant Dan announced he was quitting the BBC on social media, explaining: "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 to 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 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 around very often and I can't wait."
Bookies are certain that BBC Breakfast star Jon Kay will take Dan's place, reports the Daily Star. Jon regularly stands in for Dan when he's on holiday, presenting alongside the likes of Naga Munchetty and Sally Nugent.
