Greg James, best known for presenting Radio One’s Breakfast Show, has returned to the University of East Anglia on his book tour.

The presenter and author visited the SU Media Collective ahead of his live talk this evening.

James, whose new book ‘All the Best for the Future’ released 25 September, told Concrete that it was “brilliant to be back.”

It has been 10-years since Greg James came to Norwich for Radio One’s Big Weekend.

The festival was headlined by Taylor Swift.

Looking back, he said: “It was unbelievably exciting to come back to Earlham park as an ex-Norwich resident.

“To come back and be like, this is where I went to university, that’s the swimming pool, and that’s the drama studio and that’s Taylor Swift in Earlham Park.

“It was very very cool.”

In 2006, James was the Station Manager for Livewire student radio before he went on to work on BBC Radio One in 2007.

James visited the studio and signed the wall, writing: “I love this place so much. Long live Livewire! The most special group of nerds. This station chaged my life and I’ll love it forever.”

He went on to record an interview with the current Station Manager and Deputy Station Manager, Nathan Winterford and Max Gowers. 

The full interview will be aired on the Livewire Breakfast Show this month.
