Sad news. Probably is the equivalent to Brucie here - a fixture in US living rooms for decades.
I think Regis Philbin, who passed away earlier this year, may have been a bit closer to being a US equivalent of our Brucie.
This may seem obvious but Bob Barker.

Alex was one of my first "TV Dad's" I watched him every chance I could on Sky with Classic Concentration and Jeopardy. I can remember when Sky stopped showing it and watching Jeopardy any chance I could after that.
I was lucky enough to watch the whole Ken Jennings run on Jeopardy and I hope the rumours of him taking over are true.

Looks like his last work has been released early
Can only stream in the US though.
Alex Trebek brought joy to millions and will be greatly missed. Recently, Alex and the @ScoobyDoo gang teamed up to solve a mystery in a new @Jeopardy! episode of Scooby-Doo and Guess Who - stream for free as we celebrate our pal Alex Trebek https://t.co/YNj7LEj65P pic.twitter.com/X0ugXMukN9

Jeopardy! is to resume filming next week with interim guest hosts. The first one will be Ken Jennings.
There will only ever be one Alex Trebek, but I'm honored to be helping Jeopardy! out with this in January. https://t.co/2m2b5IQnkw

They've also added two weeks of reruns now so his last episode will air in January rather than Christmas Day as previously announced.

And good to see a photo of Alex in the opening titles...
..he may be gone, but he still appears on the show.

I presume that's because they haven't changed the titles? Doesn't make sense to do so until they have a permanent new host.
