HAPPY HOLLY STAYS!

Holly Willoughby has hit back at rumours that she is quitting This Morning, saying, ‘I’m going nowhere.’ Amid reports that Alison Hammond and Dermot O’leary were being lined up to replace Holly and co-host Phillip Schofield (above) on the ITV show, Holly added, ‘I reckon Phil and I could conceivably stay on that sofa together forever.’

Now we know what Brian Cox dislikes most about playing Logan Roy (left) in Sky Atlantic smash hit Succession – recognition! He says, ‘It’s gone from people in the street saying, “You’re what’s-his-name from so-and-so show” to “You’re Brian Cox and you’re Logan Roy”, when I’d prefer my anonymity.’

Kate Humble enjoyed swimming in the River Wye so much for her show Good Life,

Green Life – currently on My5 – that the presenter is taking classes in ice swimming. Talking about the pursuit, which involves taking to water that’s 5°C or less,

Kate (right) says, ‘It will be appreciably colder than it was in the Wye in July, but I’m looking forward to it.’

Football great Ian Wright reckons he’s finally found a substitute for the thrill of scoring a goal – seeing a contestant win on Moneyball, the ITV game show he hosts. ‘I retired from football in 2000, and it’s the closest I’ve come to that scoring euphoria,’ says Ian (left).
