HISTORICAL FACTS: When is dan walker leaving bbc breakfast presenter confirms exact date | History Defined

Presenter Dan Walker has confirmed exactly when he will be leaving BBC Breakfast. The 45-year-old announced he was quitting the show last month and now his last day has been revealed.

Dan will be leaving BBC Breakfast after six years to move to Channel 5 News. He is replacing Sian Williams who stepped down from anchoring the show last month. Explaining his reasons for going at the time of his announcement, Dan said: "Channel 5 came with big ambitions, with big plans, and I don't think opportunities like this come around very often and I can't wait.

"I've also had the incredible privilege of working on some iconic programmes over the last few years, both at the BBC and elsewhere, and what I love about this deal is I not only get to present the news but also host a whole range of programmes right across the channel."
