I suppose that’s the issue with not having contracted presenters for the four days a week.

I do hope for stability soon. Whilst it’s nice to see different faces in the presenting role, it does feel like eternal half term.

I was thinking the other day that this is the first period in the show’s history with uncertainty in terms of presenters. Richard & Judy left, and despite the hiring of Colleen and Twiggy, they had strong presenters in John & Fern to eventually fill that gap. They then (luckily) employed Phil for the Friday edition which ended up becoming a more full time role, with Phil staying on after Fern left to welcome in Holly.
Obviously circumstances cannot be helped, but it’s a shame that they didn’t have anything more permanent in place.

As for the show, I’ve seen before say that the set and branding won’t simply be changed because of the presenters, however, as a long term viewer of the show I strongly associate the current branding and set with Phillip & Holly… possibly because they became part of the brand for the programme.

As for future replacements, there are many strong contenders, possibly so many that I’m unsure which way they’ll go. Both Craig & Dermot have proven to be very capable in the role, but Rylan also has a charm not only with the viewers but also with the crew and wider team which is nice to see.
