Dan Walker is to replace BBC Breakfasts Bill Turnbull as a presenter of BBC Breakfast. The veteran sports broadcaster is due to join the show this month as host Bill Turnbull steps down from the role. Walker said about taking the role:
“I’m thrilled to be joining the BBC Breakfast team, I have watched the show avidly over the years and am even looking forward to setting my alarm clock and doing what I can to make it even more successful.”
Adding: “It is an honour to be given this opportunity and to follow in the footsteps of someone like Bill Turnbull. The man has significant shoes to fill, so I hope I can do as good a job as he did waking up the nation.”
