Darren Grimes announces that his GB News show will come to an end later this month.

Darren Grimes has confirmed that his GB News show Real Britain will come to an end later this month.

The 29-year-old began presenting the show earlier this year, initially on both Saturday and Sunday afternoons - although last month the Sunday edition was dropped to make way for a new show from Calvin Robinson.

In September Grimes hit back at rumours that he had been sacked by the broadcaster, although on Friday he revealed on social media that he will indeed be departing the channel.

He wrote on Twitter: "Sadly, my GB News show, Real Britain, is ending in a few weeks. I want to make its last few episodes on air the best of all.

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart to those who have loyally tuned in and supported me and the channel – it has been the greatest ride of my life!"

The news comes a fortnight after Mercy Muroki departed the station.
