Did the Top Billing presenter search happen because Michael Mol left for SABC3's new Expresso? ''The timing was just good,'' he says.


You're reading it here first.

Did Top Billing decide on doing the Top Billing presenter search because the Top Billing presenter Michael Mol decided to move over to the new weekday morning show Expresso on SABC3? Or would the Top Billing presenter search have happened anyway to find and add a new presenter (I can tell you it will be announced om December 9) even if Michael Mol didn't change his TV routine from primetime to early mornings?

''It wasn't done to co-incide with each other,'' Top Billing presenter and Top Billing presenter search judge Jeannie D tells me. ''Michael Mol isn't replaceable anyway.''

''I think the timing was just good,'' Michael Mol, tells me. ''But I think also the Top Billing presenter search generates huge interest and it does give somebody new the opportunity to be on this amazing show.
