That must mean he has to give up his job on Saturday afternoons. Knowing Lesley, I expect she'll hire Kate Thornton to replace him!

Most likely he will have to give up Saturday afternoons. I would expect Russell Brand to replace him. I would also expect Dermot to still do weekday cover as I supect this is the end of his Big Brother work and he will have free time at certain parts of the year to do weekday cover.

I wouldn't hold any store by any of this. Two words - 'Pre-rec' and 'Parky'.

A logical, if uninspiring choice.

I think Dermots going to pre-record his saturday show on radio 2 when he starts the X Factor.I bet his pay packets about to get a big boost!
PS are you all going to be listening to Dermot sitting in for Ken Bruce for the next 2 weeks?
