This was all leading to a big thank you to Sainsbury’s worker Robbie and her co-host told those at home a bit more about him.

Amol explained prior to the video-tape: “After losing the job he loved selling cruises, Robbie started manning the queue and sanitising the baskets and trollies at his local supermarket in Wiltshire.”

Alex added more information about why he was nominated: “In just a few weeks of working there, he’s made such a huge impression on customers.

“Telling jokes, playing games with them, even singing a song or two and here’s why he deserves his one big thank you,” she said. 

Robbie had been nominated by Clare Smale, who is a customer at the store he is working at, saying: “He just brings this amazing ray of sunshine.”

A montage of customers who had been impressed by Robbie’s nature featured and there were even some thank-yous from people closer to home.

His girlfriend Ellie joined in, telling the camera: “The only item on his agenda is to go out there and make people smile.”

Alex soon got involved and via the power of technology, started giving Robbie instructions through the store’s tannoy system.

He was tricked into believing it was training set by his boss Julian who had him going around the store following Alex’s commands.

However after she’d had her bit of fun, she revealed the truth to an oblivious Robbie and he was greeted to messages from his family and friends.

His colleagues also presented him with a few gifts where he was greeted by his girlfriend and he made a speech to say thank you for the gesture before returning back to the studio. 

Alex became emotional after the segment admitting it was the first time she had seen it put together, holding her hand on her chest.
