No, not Rob Brydon!

The rumours are though that it is a different revered Welshman. I kinda hope it's somebody else.

Maybe we should Corden off Wales.

Badumtissh

(Yes I know the rumours weren't about him, but we should never let truth get in the way of a good* pun)

Well I'm not going to mention the name but the "Economic Times" has posted a name that has not been mentioned in this thread so far. Not sure where they got the info but it is a presenter on holiday.

hah! They have edited the article to remove the said name.

Probably just in time to protect themselves against litigation. Now that it's out, I can say that for some reason the news website in question posted that it was breakfast presenter Jon Kay (of whom I have never heard) that was suspended. Apparently he's just on holiday though.

The only news outfit to publically name anyone before the public statement, and they got it wrong. Bravo! 👏
