Kate from the Radio 1 webteam gives you a blow by blow account of the night's proceedings via Twitter: - 20:58 - The boys thank everyone and play out their anthem by the mighty Nick Cave. Thanks boys, it's been brilliant!
- 20:56 - Cover your ears, Biffy are singing along...! Actually, they sound like they've done this before - many a time
- 20:54 - Yes people you are listening to Biffy's takeover - and it's time to 'Take A Chance' on a bit of ABBA
- 20:51 - There's less talking now as the boys try and squeeze all their favourite tracks into the last ten minutes! Kong will take up most of it!
- 20:40 - Simon has just won the prize for the worst link ever
- 20:38 - James and Ben nearly die laughing at a listener's suggestion that Simon might be a style icon
- 20:33 - The boys are really easing into this now - so much so that Zane gives the studio a call to check they're not stealing his show forever!

- 20:17 - The boys are going out on the town after the show.
- 20:08 - James says that they are going to be playing some of the best tracks in the world FACT! Then he plays Roy Orbison
- 20:02 - Simon suggests that their new album might make Josh reconsider music in general. We think he's possibly kidding
- 20:01 - Is Josh inviting the boys out to join him for one of his infamous Desert Sessions or is he just teasing? 'I never tease' he claims
- 19:59 - Woo! It's very special guest time...are they there? Yes! It's Radio 1 favourite, Josh Homme from Queens Of The Stone Age.
- 19:56 - Ah this is more like it - 'Here's Rolo Tomassi - this RULES'
- 19:54 - The boys haven't bottled telling us about a track they hate, unlike the other takeover chaps - the lucky people are Iglu & Hartly yay!
- 19:46 - Dan tells them they are killing it on the texts - Zane's gonna be worried about his job!
- 19:40 - The boys reveal they've been working on soundtracks to three upcoming films of books by Marmaduke Duke - exclusive!
- 19:29 - "Yeah we taught Damon Albarn everything he knows..."
- 19:23 - Oops - some at the BBC is playing the wrong version - normally apparently this song is awesome but 'this is just musak'!
- 19:22 - The boys get their dancing shoes on as they play funk at it's best - Average White Band - ow!
- 19:16 - Apparently they were asked earlier what they did over Christmas - "We grew a lot of hair" was the answer.
- 19:12 - Simon has waited all his life for a woman like this in his life - it's Tina Turner!
- 19:09 - I can see big signs up in the studio with the Radio 1 text number on it so the boys don't forget - 'Who's on board?!'
- 19:00 - It's 7pm! The boys introduce themselves and appear to be about to play Dire Straits!?!
