Jeff Brazier dreams of Xtra Factor role

Jeff Brazier is desperate to present 'The Xtra Factor'.

The 'Dancing On Ice' star says it would be his dream job to take over from Konnie Huq - who is rumoured to be getting the axe after just one series - on the ITV2 spin-off show as he knows how good it would look on his presenting CV.

He said: "Presenting 'The Xtra Factor' would be my ideal job. But I have a lot of respect for Konnie, so I don't want to be rude. As far as I know it's not even available. But in terms of my ideal presenting job, I would love to have the opportunity. I'm sure it would be the making of my presenting career."

However, Jeff - who has guest reported during the final of the ITV1 talent show for three years until 2009 and hosts the spin-off tour - is concentrating on his training for 'Dancing On Ice' with professional partner Isabelle Gauthier for the time being.

He said: "I'm doing OK on it. I haven't dropped my partner Isabelle for a while. I was trying to drop her every now and then as I think it's good for her, keeps her down to earth. The worst one was when I dropped her on her face. Not good."
