Have I Got News For You viewers call for Danny Dyer to take over as permanent host

Danny Dyer might be known for his hard man act on EastEnders.

But it looks like he has gone and warmed the hearts of his fans with his appearance on Have I Got News For You.

Stepping in as host, the star got the audience laughing along at his dry sense of humour and his poor efforts at reading the autocue.

It was obviously one of the first times hed been in the hot seat of a talk show, but his attempts at presenting were endearing, and viewers are hoping hell be back.

Taking to Twitter, they called for the 41-year-old to return as a permanent host.

Danny Dyer should present #HIGNFY more often. Top quality.

Someone else commented: Danny Dyer to host permanently, hes the contrast to Ian and Paul needed.

A fourth said: HIGNFY was brilliant tonight. I hope Danny Dyer hosts more shows in the future, because hes hilarious without even trying.

The star got Ian Hislop to help explain what the Grieve amendment means for both Theresa May and the country, despite his recent rant about Brexit.

Just last month the actor told The Big Issue: Theresa May, bless her, just got that job by default. Boris Johnson running around with his stupid haircut spouting bollocks.

Young people look and think: “If these are the people running the country, why shouldnt I go and loot and riot?”

They just dont give a f**k. This us against them-type vibe has got worse. We are living in an age of food banks. How the f**k did that happen? Seriously.

He continued: Politicians are floundering around. They have been given this thing called f**king Brexit because of one man. One man.
