Ex-The One Show host Adrian Charles is said to be “fishing” for his old BBC job back.
The TV presenter appeared on Tuesday’s programme (January 17) to promote his new book about boozing titled The Good Drinker: How I Learned to Love Drinking Less.
However, fans thought Adrian was doing his best to impress producers on the show when he started interviewing fellow guest Naomi Ackie, taking over from the show’s hosts.

Though some viewers took to Twitter to share their thoughts on his show return.

From May 2010, Chiles went on to front ITV’s football coverage.
He made his ITV debut whilst presenting the England v Mexico friendly at Wembley.
In September 2010, he went on to make his first appearance on Daybreak, ITV’s new breakfast show, which failed to take off bigger than it’s rival BBC Breakfast.
