He also appeared on television regularly in 2008, starting in January when he was drafted in as a relief presenter for "This Morning", co-presenting alongside Fern Britton and Ruth Langsford during Phillip Schofield's absence. In April, he once again fronted the BBC One series "Have I Got News for You", and he filmed an episode of "Celebrity Bargain Hunt" in May. He was also a short-notice guest on "The Paul O'Grady Show" in October 2008, after Peter Andre and Katie Price could not appear (Clary and O'Grady are friends and neighbours).
