Already being discussed in the Sky news thread in the Newsroom

I wasnt aware, sorry!

Perhaps his real reason for leaving was that he didn't want to be associated with house wive morning TV, and perhaps wanted to do something a little more serious.

I agree Mr-Stabby!

No need to apologise, just the post would get more of a response in the newsroom.

Bit of a slap in the face of GMTV isn't it? He leaves claiming he hates the early mornings then goes over to Sky News to do the exact same spot he was doing on GMTV. Bet they ain't happy.

Best place for him! Let's hope that means he'll keep off the main TV channels.

The real reason is because he wanted more money and GMTV said no. Anything else he says is just trying to cover up the issue.

Presumably Sky News will now be paying out great sums of money for him and for that he now will have to work for 3 hours not just an hour and a half!

Traitor.

He's obviously desparate for work.

He's hosting Walsall In Bloom this year in Brownhills !

Eh?
