After sacking Angus Deayton from Have I Got News For You, the BBC are reportedly lining up "convicted cocaine dealer" Johnnie Vaughan.

Nothing against the guy, but doesn't it seem a little strange?

"Johnnie Vaughan" no way, I want to see Jonny Vegas given a chance.

No - I think Angus should stay doing the job - he's the best one for it, but he's gone and there's nothing we can do about it.

Nope - I don't care what Deayton did.

I just find it slightly hypocritical of Auntie Beeb to sack one presenter for his antics, and consider hiring another who has an equally shady (if not worse) past.

Apparently they sacked Deayton because "he had become the butt of the shows jokes". What exactly do they think that Merton, Hislop and co will do with a convicted cocaine dealer?!

First thing is he isn't funny

Second thing is that he has totally the wrong personality for the job

Paul Merton is better as team captain.

Not Johnny Vaughan! He's rubbish! Never found the guy funny at all. It said on the news that Paul Merton would be taking Angus's place for this Friday - God knows who'll be taking Paul's place. Angus, maybe.

Perhaps the clue to this decision is in the title of the show?

Yes, I think Clive Anderson would be great. He's very similar to Deayton, in that he's a funny straight man - if you know what I mean.

My dad thought Clive Anderson would be a good replacement.
I agreed with him.
