He said that he was so grateful to the Anglia audience , who from day one had been so supportive and understanding .

And he paid tribute to his co-presenter Becky Jago who he described as long suffering and quite wonderful for putting up with some pretty dreadful jokes "judging by her eye rolls and shakes of the head."
