Friday 12th July is a historic moment for Hits Radio; pop star, jungle survivor and presenter extraordinaire Fleur East, along with her mates Greg and James took over the breakfast show. Fleur and the guys will Wake the Fun Up every weekday morning from 6am.
Greg and James arrived at the Hits Radio studio bright and early to prepare for the first show, but they started to worry that Fleur hadn't turned up on time.
After a quick Facetime it became clear that Fleur was still en route to the studio, explaining to her co hosts she was "running a little bit late".
Eagle eyed Greg noticed Fleur seemed to be taking an unconventional mode of transport, clearly her time in the celebrity jungle has brought out an adventurous side.
As the star of the show Fleur wasn't going to turn up for her first day without making an entrance! Telling Greg and James she would see them soon we followed her on the unconventional commute...
Taking a speedboat, Fleur East raced past some some of Manchester's most iconic landmarks before making her way along the world famous canals that surround the Hits Radio studios.
With a second to spare Fleur arrives in the nick of time!
Fleur East, Greg and James wake the fun up every week day morning from 6am. Tune into Hits Radio on 103FM in Manchester, on DAB, via the Hits Radio app or on your Smart Speaker for the biggest hits and the biggest throwbacks.
Huge thank you to Helly Hansen Watersports Centre for loaning Fleur their speedboat for the morning.
