Matt Baker has revealed that he does not plan to quit presenting duties on Countryfile if he takes on The One Show full-time.

The presenter is currently sharing the role with Chris Evans opposite Alex Jones on the BBC's flagship magazine show, after Jason Manford quit over a sex scandal.

He told the Belfast Telegraph: "I've had a great relationship with them [The One Show] over the last year so it would be lovely. Whatever happens I do want to keep going with Countryfile so I won't be finishing with that for sure."

Baker is currently in training for this weekend's Strictly Come Dancing final, where he will compete against Pamela Stephenson and Kara Tointon.
