ITV is talking to Alan Titchmarsh about hosting his own chatshow.
The BBC presenter covered for Paul O'Grady on his new Channel 4 chat show last autumn, while O'Grady was recovering from a heart attack.
Titchmarsh's previous chat show ventures include presenting BBC One's Pebble Mill at One in the early 1990s.
ITV confirmed that it is talking about a recording a pilot show, but it is not known whether any would deal will impact upon his current BBC commitments.
As well as presenting How to Be a Gardener, The Gardener's Year and his own Radio 2 Sunday night show, Titchmarsh is currently in production with follow-up series of The British Isles: A Natural History for the BBC.
