Now he has been ­quietly dropped from the Bafta-winning series’ ­theatre gigs, Secrets from the Barn, and ditched from its promo material.

Jay’s career is in limbo following the allegations concerning his estranged wife Lisa Zbozen, 43.

The BBC looks set to axe the Christmas special of The Repair Shop.

Channel 5 has shelved documentary series A Country House Through Time.

And Channel 4 has said there will be no sequel to The Odd Couple, Blades’ travel show with Dame Judi Dench.

Blades has presented The Repair Shop for seven years.

His estranged wife posted a message on Instagram on May 2 saying their 18-month marriage had ended.

West Mercia Police launched an investigation a day later.

He is due at Worcester crown court on Friday.
