They met again later at indie mecca the Hawley Arms in Camden Town, north London. “Grimmy was telling me he wanted to be on the radio, and I’d just launched Switch and they were looking for someone to come in on a weekly basis and contribute,” Macmanus says. He added that he had been thinking about his future in recent months, and as such, had “made the decision that it’s time for me to move on”. He also extended his thanks to listeners “as without them none of this could have been possible” as well as “the Radio 1 family, who have been such a huge part of my life. Thank you thank you thank you.” In May 2015, Grimshaw's Breakfast Show fell to 5.5 million listeners a week, becoming tied with Sara Cox's show for the lowest number of listeners in Radio 1's history. The station controller Ben Cooper congratulated Grimshaw saying, "I'm pleased that Grimmy is doing what I've asked of him by keeping his young audience happy and scaring off the over-30s.".
