Kid Normal

Greg James is a familiar voice and face on radio and TV. He's the host of BBC Radio 1's breakfast show. On screen, Greg has hosted a variety of shows, most recently seen fronting BBC Children in Need. He is also a huge cricket fan and has presented many related programmes. He raised over a million pounds for Sport Relief by completing five triathlons in five cities in five days. Greg has no superpowers. In his spare time he enjoys the idea of having hobbies. But in reality, he's made all of them into work. With his former co-presenter on Radio 1, Chris Smith, he is the author of the very popular children's book series, KID NORMAL.
