    By far my favourite radio presenter of the current era. Sad to see him leaving....

    This is Shaun's last week and it's going to be sad to have him go.

    Definitely the best all-round show on the station.

    Most other shows are purely for either music nerds (of which I'm one), or just hearing a load of anthems, but Shaun's humour was second-to-none and when that's mixed with both of the above it makes for delightful listening.

    I do wonder why he's decided to leave, though.

    The biggest moment of Friday's show was at the end when it was revealed that he was pushed rather than jumped.

    A very poor decision by the powers that be, and it really feels like something essential has now been lost to 6 Music.

    At the end of the show when he was doing his goodbyes and salutations he revealed that he was 'told he would no longer be doing this' .

    His final playlist also contained a few hints as to how he felt.
