Twiggy joins Oak FM to co-host breakfast

Former Trent and Capital East Midlands breakfast presenter Andy Twigge is joining Quidem’s Oak 107 & 107.9 to co-host breakfast.

Twiggy, as he’s more commonly known as, will be joining regular host Mark Rowley from Monday.

He spent over 10 years at Trent FM with Jo Russell for the long-running Jo and Twiggy in the Morning show, then was paired up with Emma Caldwell and later moved to drivetime.

Quidem’s Director of Operations Ben Day told RadioToday: “I’m really excited to welcome Twiggy to the Oak FM family. Twiggy has a proven track record of being an outstanding story teller and I’m confident that Oak FM’s listeners will love his warm humour in the mornings.

“This is an important step in our mission to make Oak FM the choice for listeners ‘round here. We have some great plans for 2014 and this is the first step.”

Twiggy said: “It’s been a while since I’ve been on the radio, but joining Oak FM is really exciting for me. Hopefully the listeners will feel the same!

“I just can’t wait to hear my alarm going off at 4am!”
