People aren’t sure about the person tipped to co-host Britain’s Got Talent with Dec

There's been a lot of speculation.

With Ant out of action for the foreseeable future following his recent drink-driving incident, it looks likely that Dec will be joined by another presenter for Britain's Got Talent when it kicks off again later this year. The bookies favourite to be brought in is Scarlett Moffatt, who along with Stephen Mulhern, already plays a part on the Geordie duo's other show Saturday Night Takeaway. Paddy Power are offering odds of 5-6 on her joining Dec on BGT. "So Ant’s been decked by ITV – it’s a case of “taxi for Ant” for the next few months," a Paddy Power spokesman said. "Which seems a wise move. "While the much-loved Geordie TV presenter recovers in rehab, ITV bosses seem set to really think outside the box – by replacing him with much-loved Geordie TV presenter Scarlett Moffatt. Genius." However, not everybody is convinced of the idea. Here's what TV critic Ian Hyland had to say on the matter. https://twitter.com/HylandIan/status/978920065981648896 And, sadly for Scarlett, others agree. https://twitter.com/ChrisHewgill/status/978923410200899584 https://twitter.com/paulineinessex/status/978921512953671680 https://twitter.com/bandwagonbest/status/978921677198364672 If you're wondering who else could be getting lined up for the role, Stephen Mulhern is 2-1 to replace Ant, with Dermot O’Leary 5-1 and Caroline Flack 6-1. The talent show returns in April, with the live shows beginning at the end of May - so I guess we don't have long to wait to see who gets the gig in the end.
