Christopher Price is to be the main presenter for one of 4 pilots Channel 4 has commissioned for the replacement to the Big Breakfast.

Christopher is great on Liquid News, very laid back, very witty and errrr sometimes very rude, in a cheeky kind of way. Would be a good move I reckon.

Without wishing to brag, I used to be an email buddy of Christopher back in the days when he was on News 24 with 'Zero30', the original late-night version of his entertainment news show.

When the (then) new controller of N24 took over, she cancelled Christopher's show and the production team 'sold' it to Choice. Christopher was absolutely thrilled that the show was getting an early evening slot with meant he would 'get his life back'. Although I'm sure he would love the high profile job I can tell you that he wouldnt enjoy working early mornings any more than he enjoyed working late nights.

I dont really think the 'lad'ish element of BB would suit him either.

He is brilliant IMO, and I would like to see him get a BBC1 fixture, but I doubt we will see him on BB.

Yeah but he not be doing the BB pilot, he may be doing one of the others, I personally hope that of P24 don't win with a much changed BB, Sky get it because their show sound the best of the options so far.
