New Radio 1 shows for Nick Grimshaw and Nihal


Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 1 announced today changes to the station's weekend schedule.

Μύ

From September, Nihal will present the Saturday and Sunday afternoon show (1.00-4.00pm) while Nick Grimshaw takes on the weekend breakfast show (Saturday and Sunday, 7.00-10.00am).

Μύ

Sara Cox and Edith Bowman both make a welcome return to Radio 1 in September, following their maternity leave.

Μύ

Sara will cover Jo Whiley's show (Monday-Friday, 10.00am-1.00pm) during Jo's maternity leave and from the new year host Sunday mornings (10.00am-1.00pm).

Μύ

Edith presents the Sunday morning show in September and October and returns to her regular weekday slot (Monday-Friday, 1.00-4.00pm) in November.

Μύ

Chappers and Dave will host Sunday mornings in November and December.

Μύ

Dick and Dom, who have hosted Sundays (10.00am-1.00pm) for the past year, will leave the station in September to pursue other projects.

Μύ

Nihal said: "I've loved doing the weekend breakfast show, and now in under a year I've been given another amazing opportunity to speak to a whole new audience whilst hoping that the breakfast listeners come and check me out in the afternoons too.

Μύ

"One problem is that I'm going to get flak about the football live while I'm on air."

Μύ

Nick Grimshaw said: "This is a great opportunity. I am really excited. I've always loved breakfast radio so it will be great to give the Radio 1 listeners my own weekend wake-up!"
