BBC's Morning Live - after saying he wouldn't want a spot presenting This Morning. The 42-year-old star said he would "bring chaos to the sofa" as a presenter on the long-running show, which is presented by Gethin Jones and Helen Skelton.

He will begin his presenting duties alongside Gaby Roslin this Friday before joining Helen on Wednesday next week. I always love supporting a Manchester based show and every time I’ve been on as a guest, the team have always been a real pleasure to work with." Jason ruled himself out of the This Morning job in the wake of Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield's departure last year.
