Tom O'Connor.


Des claims they offered to move production to London for him, but that he couldn't face putting the crew out of work. I heard they wouldn't move for him.

Interesting thought, but I think he's considered a bit of a rising star in the BBC, so I don't see them letting him go too easily - plus he might be a bit inexperienced.
