Jeremy Vine reveals real reason for Channel 5 absence as concerned fans speak out
Channel 5 presenter Jeremy Vine has been missing from the show this week, with presenters Vanessa Feltz and Matthew Allwright stepping in to help.
One fan rushed to social media to ask where Vine was while his friend Snoochie Shy was on the show, posting: "Hey jezza,where the support for @snoochieshy on masterchef? Thought you were mates? Or is that only for gogglebox when being paid?"
Vine bluntly replied: "Oh god I'm away."
This comes after fans rushed to social media to demand to know where he was, with one asking: "Where is old Vine?" as another asked: "Where is the [scoundrel] Vine?"

After the Eggheads was dropped by BBC, Vine took over as sole host when the series transferred to Channel 5 in 2021. Since the last episode aired in 2023, it seems that the show might not be seen on screens.
Vine did nothing to dispel the rumours, as he admitted that he hadn't been told anything about a new series from Channel 5 bosses.

He told The Mirror earlier this year: "“I haven't heard anything about Eggheads for a while now. I think I have done about 1,200 shows - but whether we are doing any more I don't know.
"We last filmed an episode over a year ago. It may well be we are doing it in 30 years' time, who knows, but no immediate plans for any more.”
Jeremy Vine airs weekdays at 9.15am on Channel 5.
