Yes it's sad but true - we can now officially report that following seven very successful years at the helm of E4's Big Brother's Little Brother Dermot O'Leary has taken the decision not to return for the summer series in 2008.
But fear not Dermot fans - he'll still be fronting E4's Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack in January 2008 which will see celebrities taking on the Big Brother mantle, and provide their own unique spin as they interact with the housemates and work side by side with Big Brother. Dermot said: "It is with great regret that my time on Big Brother will come to an end after Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack. For the last seven years I've had the time of my life working on Big Brother's Little Brother, from our broom cupboard days to the all singing and literally all dancing show we make now. But this summer's work commitment of BBLB and The X Factor has proven to me that to do both shows is impractical if not impossible. I want to thank Channel 4 and the Big Brother family for all their support and for the opportunity to present a live show that I love with all my heart." Head of E4 and Big Brother Commissioning Editor Angela Jain said: "BBLB has been Dermot's little baby from the start. He was our first choice and the best choice. We will miss him and all the laughter and professionalism he has brought with him. I'm delighted we can hold on to him a little longer because he has chosen to host Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack as his Big Brother swansong." We can also confirm that Davina McCall will return to front Big Brother on C4 in the summer. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its on the C4 site |

I presume they may do what they did with BBBM, and have random people presenting it, it will be weird not to have Dermot fronting BBLB... Its kinda sad he has gone. |

Finally... Dermot gone! A space for someone fresh exiting and new, or else Russel Brand! It probably still wont be the same without him though.

I smell the end of BB altogether sometime soon. Dermot going is devastating. I'd be surprised if they could find anyone as good for the role as he was. I'm sure the new presenter will try too hard while I thought that Dermot was quite comfortable hosting it.

Another sign that points towards a Big Brother reformatting process. It has to happen for the show to survive really. With Dermot now gone it's just another reason to give BB a makeover, new look, new tone, new style and new rules.
Please get it away from all the celeb wannabes hanging out in a house for 3 months and make it about actually trying to win the show. Make it about game play, strategy and let them discuss nominations so that game element and group element will happen. I pray that the producers have their minds thinking BB9 through because if they don't change it and I mean change it properly not just "Hey lets put all women in on the first night", I mean seriously re-think the game and rules, if they don't do that BB9 will flop and it could kill BB forever. |

Dermot will probably be dropped after X Factor 5 because that is all he signed up for and because Simon looks for a way to freshen up each year, I'm 99% certain X Factor will see a new host for series 6 if it is still going. |

I am really shocked, I thought he was going to stay to see the whole show through
He will be sadly missed. |

It won't be the same without Dermot he's been there ever since it started hasn't he? I really don't see the point in any more Big Brother series now cos every year it's the same and then once it's over they are round for like a month then disappear!! It's become boring and now Dermot's leaving it's just proved that BB won't be the same.
