Adrian Chiles
Adrian Chiles thinks he and Christine Bleakley should host
This Morning, according to a magazine interview.
The former Daybreak presenter admitted although he would love to take over
from This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, TV bosses
would only choose him and Bleakley if "no-one else was available".
Chiles also explained while it was "hard to enjoy" his time
on Daybreak because of the constant criticism he was faced with, he was much
"prouder" of his time on the programme than he was on BBC evening chat
series The One Show.
He added in an interview with TV Buzz magazine: "Occasionally I'm hurt
because it doesn't take much for me to get in a grump about things, but I'm
not really bitter. It's their train set, they don't want me and Christine to
do it. We gave it our best shot, but you can't win them all.
"It was hard to enjoy because we were always getting slated, but I'm proud
of it - prouder of it than The One Show. It was a difficult time being under
that much pressure. You get ratty with one another, but we were the only
ones helping each other through it at times."
