According to The Guardian, the taxi driver is co-presenting Baker's BBC Radio London slot on September 1.

The station's assistant editor Justin Kings commented: "We're delighted he's agreed to a show the other side of the microphone for a change."

Mitch is one of several guest hosts filling in for Baker between August 18 and September 12.
