Tom Deacon joins Radio 1
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 18 January 2010
BBC Switch and stand up comedy blokey Tom Deacon will present a new show for Radio 1, to air on Sunday nights after the chart show.
Deacon is a presenter on the TV version of the Beeb’s yoof brand Switch, and his new radio show will also appear in the Switch strand on Radio 1. He will replace the Sunday evening Switch show presented by Nick Grimshaw and Annie Mac, who will shift into a late night slot on Sundays.
Radio 1’s Deputy Controller Ben Cooper said this: “Tom has been doing a fantastic job with Switch so I’m really pleased to bring him to Radio 1 and his new show means we are strengthening our relationship with Switch even further”.
