''. On 28 November 2003, Kash hosted his first episode of the show which coincided with one of its most radical overhauls in what was reported as a make-or-break attempt to revitalize the long-running series. Previously, the show had been presented by different people each week, but as part of the revamp Kash became the sole presenter. The BBC chose Kash for the position because of his youth, his prior success on MTV, and because they considered him a "edgy, quick-witted and talented presenter"; they hoped that all of these qualities would bring back the younger audience Top of the Pops used to have. Kash was later joined by co-presenters
from April 2004. He left ''Top of the Pops'' permanently in August 2004, after presenting 38 editions. The show moved from BBC One to BBC Two in spring 2005, and was eventually axed in July 2006.
In 2007, Kash quit MTV UK to move to the US MTV station.
