A TOP BBC show has undergone another huge presenter shake-up for the third week running.
Popular TV anchor Laura Kuenssberg, 47, has again been replaced on her own politics show, Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg.
The reporter has taken a break from the BBC One programme following the Party Conference season.
Today it was revealed on BBC Breakfast that BBC Radio 5 Live presenter Victoria Derbyshire, 55, would again be at the helm.
She gave a preview of what viewers could expect at 9am, revealing a chat with Israel's former Prime Minister as well as Immigration Minister Robert Jenrick among others.
Laura was first replaced on her October 8 show, where The Sun exclusively revealed she was missing for "personal reasons".
