Amstell gets Buzzcocks

Simon Amstell will take over full time as host of Never Mind The Buzzcocks, after Mark Lamarr decided not to return to the show.

Hurrah, this is good news. Well, there's bad news first. Mark Lamarr, who took the last series of Never Mind The Buzzcocks off, is not going to return to the popular music quiz. But the good news is Simon Amstell, one of the guest presenters on the last series, is taking over full time, which should be cool. Commenting on his new job, he told reporters he hoped to beat "the universal, exceptionless rule that when a new host takes over an old show it is a horrible, embarrassing disaster".
