BBC Radio 6 Music Announces Morning Schedule Shake-Up
BBC Radio 6 Music has shared a raft of changes to their lineup, which will see the coveted daily breakfast slot change hands in February.
Esteemed DJ Mary Anne Hobbs, who has been broadcasting on the BBC since 1996, will take a sabbatical and vacate the slot that Laverne will now host. Laverne hosted the show from 2019 and also presents BBC’s Desert Island Discs, taking over the long-running franchise from Kirsty Young. In a statement, Laverne discussed the decision to leave the breakfast slot: “As listeners will know, I had a really tough 2024 and worried at times that I wouldn’t be able to return to the station I love so much.”
