Take That star Gary Barlow is reported to be the hot favourite to take over the head judge role from Simon Cowell on the UK version of The X Factor.

The 40-year-old is claimed by the Daily Mail to be in "advanced" talks with telly bosses over the job - with a source being quoted as saying: "Gary is our favourite for the job.
"We are in discussions and we should have something to announce in the next couple of weeks."

Gary's people have previously denied that he had been tapped up for the job, but producers are now claimed to be working on fixing the audition dates so that they don't clash with Gary's Take That tour commitments.

The paper also quoted it's source as saying: "What Gary and Simon both have is an innate understanding of the music industry and what you need to succeed - that determination. Gary would be a great judge."

What do you reckon? Could Gary fill Simon's shoes? Comment below...
