BBC Radio 5 Live is making a number of changes to its schedule including Chris Warburton moving to Drive and Tony Livesey returning to Lates.
Chris, who has been co-hosting Weekend Breakfast for 10 years, will join Clare McDonnell on 5 Live Drive from December.
Tony, who has been on Drive also for a decade, returns back to where he started his 5 Live career on weeknights 10pm till 1am.
On weekends, mornings are set for a shake up, as former Olympian Jeanette Kwakye MBE steps into the spotlight to present the weekend breakfast programme alongside Eleanor Oldroyd on Saturdays and Gordon Smart on Sundays.
Regular Weekend Breakfast host, Eleanor Oldroyd, remains as co-host on Saturdays but has decided to take a step back from Sundays, making way for Gordon Smart, who is moving from weeknights to co-host alongside Jeanette on Sundays.
Gordon will also regularly present across the 5 Live schedule as well as other BBC programmes.
Heidi Dawson, Controller of BBC 5 Live, said: “It’s fantastic to be welcoming Jeanette in to the 5 Live family. After an outstanding year of big impact events, from the election, Euros football and Olympic Games, 5 Live continues to be the voice of the UK, and our brilliant new schedule line up will continue to bring people together for the country’s biggest moments.”
