“So this is happening…This is actually happening. Good morning Great Britain, and welcome to this, a brand new breakfast show, on BBC Radio One. Hi. My name is Nick Grimshaw, good morning everybody. It’s just gone 6:30 and I’m gonna be here on air with you til 10 a.m., Monday to Friday for… I don’t know how long really, just until the country uprises and I get thrown back to the nighttime. But for now it is time to follow in the footsteps of some of my favorite people, like Coxy and Moyles, and do the very difficult job of talking between records. Quite a surreal day for me, been dreaming of this since I was a little child and now it is day one of the big job, and I’m excited. I’m nervous, I’m excited, but I’m happy…And more than anything just desperate to get on with it. So, should we do it? Let’s do the Radio 1 Breakfast Show!”

“Well, thanks everybody! That was a whole lot of fun. Oh, I love a montage, especially when it’s about me. Um, thank you everybody, thank you everybody who works here on Radio One, everyone who’s worked on the show. Thanks to all the DJs, it is so fun coming here and like I said before to Sara I’ve wanted to do it since I was little, and it’s been even better than I thought it would be! So thank you everybody who’s made it so so good. Thank you to everyone who’s listened and everyone who’s sort of.. you know contributed bits of their lives and mad stories from their lives, they’ve made these six years as much as we have here at Radio One. So thank you everybody who’s texted in and told us like mad stories about what you’ve done to your exes or what you’ve left for your nan in the toilet.. like all that nonsense I absolutely love it. Um, and it’s been the best. I’ve had the time of my life being here. And uh.. yeah! Thank you for listening everybody. Thanks so much. Have an amazing summer! I’m gonna go and lie down for like three weeks, and then I’m gonna take over afternoons. Greggy’s gonna be doing breakfast. I’ll see you very, very soon from 4 p.m. Thanks for listening everybody.”

Thank you Nick for the best 6 years (September 24,2012 – August 9, 2018)
