He routinely made light of how little time he had left at BBC Radio 1 and whether or not he would be able to complete his massive list of “1000 Albums Everyone Says You Should Listen To But We Only Have Time To Play One Track So Here It Is,” which had become a nightly staple on his show. Before departing for the morning program, Nick reached position 369.

They went on to host several award presentations for television as well as Channel 4 coverage of music events and festivals. In addition to delivering the BBC Radio 1 radio show BBC Switch, Nick and Annie Mac co-hosted the BBC Two music show Sound. On BBC One, Nick co-hosted the first-ever BBC Switch Awards presentation with Kimberley Walsh of Girls Aloud.
