"I wish, I wish, I wish he was like Michael Fish" sang punk girl band Rachel and Nicki back in 1985. "I wish, I wish, I wish Michael Fish was doing the weather on GMTV exactly 22 years after he memorably failed to predict the worst storm to hit the south-east of England in 250 years." And – lo and behold – Monkey's wish has come true! The Fishmeister will present the weather on the ITV1 breakfast show from 12 October to 16 October, when he will doubtless tell us again that he wasn't the only weather forecasting type not to predict the hurricane. "I was thrilled to get the call from GMTV," said Fish. "It's great to keep my hand in and see how the other side works too." That's what Doris Stokes said.
