One man will be more pleased than the rest – Jeremy Clarkson.
This news that Dion Dublin is joining 'Homes Under The Hammer' is going to take a lot of heat out of the Clarkson announcement.

The news has given people some other creative, and seemingly more likely, ideas.
Hang on…Dion Dublin is the new presenter of Homes Under The Hammer? Would have thought Harry Redknapp hosting Bargain Hunt was more likely

But overall it looks like the nation is set for unprecedented levels of unproductive afternoons.
Dion Dublin joining Homes Under the Hammer is like something Alan Partridge would come up with. I hasten to add, I'm a fan of the idea.
