Former 6 Music presenter George Lamb is joining talkSPORT to host two weekend shows, along with his old on-air partner Marc Hughes.
His first show is this Sunday 12th June, then he’ll be on-air each Saturday and Sunday night from 9pm till midnight.
The station says listeners can expect sport and celebrity chat with the likes of James Corden, Rio Ferdinand and Boris Becker.
The former Big Brother’s Little Brother TV host says: “Marc and I are super-hyped about our new show. We both love talking, we love sport and, a la Charlie Sheen, we love ‘Winning’ so, as you can imagine, we’re thrilled to be joining the most exciting thing happening in radio at the moment. Everyone’s talking about talKSPORT and it’s great to be part of that buzz.”
Moz Dee, programme director of talkSPORT and Sony Programmer of the Year said: “George is a real talent, he has a passion for radio and I think he’ll be a terrific fit for us. I’ve seen the line-up of guests that are planned and it’s very exciting.”
talkSPORT recently signed television presenters Richard Keys and Andy Gray for a daily show.
