I reckon the presenters should be:

TOTP - Fearne Cotton (TOTP Sat / Smile / TOTP) & Adrian Dickson (CBBC Top 40)

CBBC Top 40 - Reggie Yates (Smile / TOTP) & Konnie Huq (CBBC Top 40 / Blue Peter)

TOTP Sat - Jake Humphrey (Saturday Show)

Any other ideas?

I'm not sure about Adrian Dickson, never have been. Isn't he the producer on UK Top 40 aswell as presenting it?

How would they explain to viewers Jake getting from Glasgow to London so quickly (as even though TOTP Saturday isn't live they try and make viewers think it's live), unless he stops doing the Saturday Show, but then he likes doing that.

Well I say, bring back Magarita Taylor!! Or even Josie D'Arby would be pretty cool! We need presenters with presence, not Tim (nice but very very DIM) Cash!

I agree about Margherita Taylor, for the few episodes she hosted TOTP she did a great job. I also thought Sarah Cawood was a good host of TOTP, and she seemed to know her stuff about music as well.

Adrian Dickson is a great suggestion I hadn't thought of. His on-camera style is friendly and pleasant, and he also shows a strong interest in music and pop culture. And yes, he produces and presents CBBC's UK Top 40.

Just seen this week's lineup, compared to last week another flop:

Frankee "F. U. Right Back"

Blue "Bubblin'"

Evanescence "Everybody's Fool"

Sam & Mark "The Sun Has Come Your Way"

The 411 featuring Ghostface Killah "On My Knees" (pick of the show)

Corrs "Summer Sunshine" (where did it all go wrong?)

Not sure if another song will be added to the lineup yet, or whether we'll get another pointless, timewasting competition.
