Would be very surprised if they did swoop at this time given that:
a) they already have a top-class presenter in situ, in the shape of Mark Pougatch, who is a good few years younger
b) they would also be going against the grain in recruiting a middle-aged, white male presenter (and he would be much older than when Des Lynam moved to ITV from BBC in 1999)
Also, what message would that send to Laura Woods, given that ITV are surely grooming her to take over from Pougatch?
