The actor who's been tipped to take on the role of Phillip Schofield in a TV series about the scandal surrounding his ITV exit has been revealed by bookmakers.
Former This Morning host Phillip quit his role on TV after he admitted to an "unwise but not illegal" affair with a younger male colleague earlier this year. He's followed closely by Michael Sheen given his history of impersonating prominent figures in biopics, including Tony Blair and Brian Clough. It comes after Phillip stepped down as co-host of the ITV daytime show following the drama that surrounded his affair.
