    Mark Ronson To Replace Bill Bailey On Never Mind The Buzzcocks

    Trumpet-loving song-murderer Mark Ronson is one of the people lined up to replace Bill Bailey as a team captain on popular quiz show Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

    44-year-old comedian Bailey is finally bowing out after “11 series selflessly, heroically and hilariously" leading his team.

    Alongside Mark Ronson, TV presenter Dermot O'Leary and comedian Jack Dee will also be taking turns as team captain instead of Bailey.

    Show host Simon Amstell and other team captain Phil Jupitus will still remain on the show. 

    The highlight of the Buzzcocks, which first aired in 1996, was undoubtedly when Ordinary Boy Preston stormed off in 2007 after Simon Amstell poked fun at his then wife Chantelle Houghton.

    • Not sure that he'll make a very good comedian but I wouldn't say he murders songs! Amstell is funny but he's no where near as funny as Lemarr. Shows gone down hill since he left :(
