Dan Walker has admitted he'd been hit by a big realisation as he confirmed when he will make his final appearance on BBC Breakfast, ahead of his move to Channel 5.
It was last month that former Football Focus host Dan broke the news that he'd be leaving the Breakfast red sofa behind to make a surprise move to another broadcaster. In a video shared on Twitter he said: ""I'm really excited but this has also been a massive decision for me as I love BBC Breakfast, I love working alongside Sally (Nugent) and I love the team there. But Channel 5 came with big ambitions, with big plans and I don't think opportunities like this come along very often and I can't wait."
Dan will step into the Channel 5 News job held by another former BBC anchor, Sian Williams. On replacing her, he said: "I know how popular she is with both the team and also the audience, so all I can say is I will do my very best to maintain her high standards."
