Greg James is getting an extended breakfast slot for the summer months and on air till 11am.
The DJ said: “No one thinks being on the radio for three and a half hours a day is a real job. And they’re right. How about four? Is that better?”
The official Instagram account for BBC Radio 1 confirmed: “Announcement! Here is our schedule for the summer!”
“From Monday July 21, Radio 1 Breakfast with Greg James will run until 11am (Monday-Thursday), giving more young listeners the chance to start their day with him throughout the summer.”
The post continued: “The normal Radio 1 schedule will resume including Greg James on Breakfast (7am-10:30am) and Going Home with Jamie Lang and a returning Katie Thistleton (3.30pm-6pm) from September.
“From Monday 28 July, Going Home (Monday-Thursday, 3.30pm-6pm) will be hosted by Sam [MacGregor] and Danni [Diston] for the summer.
“We welcome three brand-new presenters to the station taking on Friday Early Breakfast (Fridays, 5am-7am) on a monthly rotation.”
July’s takeover is Danny Mylo and Rosie Madison, while the August takeover is TikTok creator Charley Marlowe who will host the Early Breakfast show on Fridays.
Life Hacks on Sundays from 4pm to 6pm will be co-hosted by Lauren Layfield alongside Tskenya Frazer in July, and Yinka Bokinni in August.
Presenter Sam exclaimed on the post: “WAHEYYYY LET’S GOO!”
I Kissed A Girl’s Charley commented: “I’m so excited to get started!”
Charley added: “I’ll be playing as much Jane McDonald and Kylie Minogue as the BBC allow. Otherwise you can expect anything from a show tune to Madonna.”
Tskenya wrote: “Eeek. So excited! Cannot wait!!!!” While Yinka exclaimed: “We back baby.”
Mylo and Rosie are joining BBC Radio 1 following their departure from Hits Radio.
They said: “We cannot put it into words how excited we are to be joining the Radio 1 team, it’s a real pinch me moment.
“If we could tell those two mates who started in radio by making tea for the good grown-up presenters that we’d be talking to you now, they wouldn’t have believed you! And we kinda don’t either.
“Our job is to literally make each other laugh every single day so it goes without saying, we hope you’ll have a laugh with us too.”
Tskenya wrote on social media: “SURPRISE. Eek, very overjoyed to be covering Life Hacks on @bbcradio1 with the gorg @laurenlayfield whilst the babe @shanequa.paris is raising the next gen of broadcasting!
“Thanks to the Radio 1 leadership team and producers for giving me this opportunity. MAJOR love to my BBC Radio London family, mentor @darrenlewis5 , and my friends for carrying this past year through the self-doubt and anxiety! WE UP!”
BRIT-award presenter Yinka said: “I’m buzzing to be joining the team this summer!”
Sam and Danni take over Going Home from 28 July, covering for Vick Hope and Katie Thistleton, who are both on maternity leave, while Jamie Laing is away filming.
The usual radio schedule will return in September.
