Alan Carr is leaving BBC Radio 2 to spend more time on his television show.
He also says he wants his weekends back and will be listening to the station from home in future.
BBC Radio 2 head of programmes, Lewis Carnie, said: “We’d like to thank Alan for his contribution over the past three years.
“Alan and his co-presenter, Mel Sykes, have made a terrific contribution to Saturday evenings on Radio 2. We’ll be announcing plans for a new Saturday evening programme shortly.”
