Presenters have been busy wishing BBC Breakfast’s Dan Walker good luck as he prepares to leave the flagship programme today for Channel 5.
The 45-year-old host took his ‘final stroll’ into the Beeb studio in the early hours of Tuesday morning and is currently fronting his last show with co-star Sally Nugent.
Dan announced his departure last month, confirming that he will join Channel 5 to become the lead anchor on 5 News after a memorable six-year tenure.
Kicking off the well-wishes, Sally said it is the ‘end of an era’ as she shared a picture of herself alongside her colleague.
She tweeted: ‘End of an era. Join us on @BBCBreakfast with @mrdanwalker for the last time. One or two surprises on the way.’
BBC Breakfast sport presenter Mike Bushell was also among the people sending Dan farewell messages.
‘Breakfast legend @mrdanwalker will always be,’ he penned. ‘One of loveliest h sapiens on the tele box and genuine wonderful friend and bloke off it.
Jon Kay added: ‘Farewell @mrdanwalker. You’ve been brilliant on @BBCBreakfast – especially guiding us all through those early lockdown days with such kind, calm and reassuring authority. A real gent. The whole team will miss you. Good luck, sir!’
‘Always makes a very difficult job seem so easy. Could present anything, unlike Lynn (in AP) even a cat. Have a great last show @BBCBreakfast.’
Channel 5 said Dan’s new remit will see him presenting recently relaunched flagship news bulletin 5 News, as well as ‘fronting a range of new programming on the channel’.
Beginning his final week at the BBC, Dan said he was ‘very sad’ and posted a video on social media using a viral snapchat filter that gives people a permanent sad face.
BBC Breakfast airs daily from 6am on BBC One.
