Smiles and selfies for Grimmy’s last show
NICK GRIMSHAW took selfies with fans and thanked them for their support as he left the BBC Radio 1 studios after presenting his final breakfast show.
The DJ, who took over the programme from Chris Moyles six years ago, smiled broadly and stopped to chat to fans who were waiting for him outside yesterday.
As he posed for pictures he told them ‘that is so kind’ as several gave him cards.
The radio personality was carrying a box of trainers that he said had been given to him by fellow Radio 1 DJ Clara Amfo, who hosts the 10am show.
Grimshaw announced his departure in May saying he was ‘really tired’.
He will be replaced by Greg James and will take over his Radio 1 drivetime slot in a job swap between the pair.
Fondly known to fans and listeners as Grimmy, he said: “I’ve had the time of my life doing the Radio 1 Breakfast Show and I’m proud to have been part of such an iconic show.”
