BGT's probably the easiest show to cut them out of tbh, they could run the auditions without the stage-side cutaways and then I'd expect they'd get Stephen Mulhern to host the semi-finals/final

It's the rest of Takeaway that's the immediate problem, the millions wasted on the series finale at Universal

Honestly though there is another way of looking at this and it'll be interesting to see how it plays out because this is a pretty difficult position for ITV

IF it transpires that he failed the breathalyser because of the remnants of a St Patrick's night out, that plays a lot better than 'he had a few cans before taking his mum and dog for a spin'. If the girl is okay (I think she went to hospital for a checkup) AND no charges are brought against him (for whatever reason) is it really beyond the realms of possibility this becomes water under the bridge? People in the public eye have a way of getting away with these things

My prediction is Takeaway is pulled, BGT runs without them, he checks back into rehab and then they return for IAC again
