Jeremy Clarkson has shared his, uh, thoughts on Angela Scanlon’s new position at BBC Radio 2.

The former Strictly contestant, 42, is taking over from Sara Cox on the drive-time show from 4pm to 7pm every weekday.

Cox, 51, has since moved to the breakfast slot after former presenter Scott Mills was fired from the national broadcaster .

He was let go in March due to allegations over his ‘personal conduct’, relating to an investigation into historical allegations of serious sexual offences.

The Clarkson’s Farm star has weighed in on the move, mostly focusing on how ‘attractive’ he finds the host. Because sure, why not.

‘I will always watch a show hosted by Angela Scanlon, partly because she’s a good presenter but mostly – and I hope she doesn’t mind me saying this – because I find her very attractive,’ he wrote in his column for The Sun .

‘Which is why I was extremely disappointed to hear this week that the BBC has given her a big new job…on the radio.’

Speaking in a statement about the move, Scanlon said it was ‘properly exciting’ to land the job, adding: ‘Millions of people, all having completely different days, piling into the same conversation for a few hours – what a strange and lovely thing!’
