In September 2012 Grimshaw became the new host of The Radio 1 Breakfast Show, replacing Chris Moyles.[1]

He was rated number 8 in the Independent on Sunday's Pink List 2012; the IoS listing said:

The exceptionally likeable presenter officially became the biggest deal in radio when he took over the BBC Radio 1 breakfast show in September. That the newly-out Mancunian replaced former Stonewall Bully of the Year Chris Moyles makes his ascent all the sweeter.[3]
