Another Clive Marie vote. He did a decent job on Mastermind . You need a serious journalistic background rather than a showbiz type.

Sh1t. That means I'll probably stop watching. Can't abide that man and his dreadful pronunciation of the letter 'a'.

Good choice. I tipped him as soon as I heard Paxman was stepping down. Wish I'd had a bet now. He's a real smart cookie.

Quite like him on Today.
As choices go, a little uninspired. However, there just aren’t the calibre of broadcaster these days as there was 30 years ago. Plus, the beeb were not going to choose another middle aged, white person. So immediately you’re ruling out most of the BBC presenting cohort.
Perfectly acceptable choice.
