Mollie King and Matt Edmondson are taking over the Radio 1 Weekend Breakfast Show.

The presenting duo took on the 1-4pm slot from Friday to Sunday in June, but they are switching time slots with Dev Griffin and Alice Levine and will be setting their alarm clocks earlier from 16 November when they step in to take the reins from 6am to 10am.
And the former Saturdays singer is "blown away" with the new show.
She said: "I'm absolutely blown away to have been asked to host the Radio 1 Breakfast Show every Friday, Saturday and Sunday with Matt Edmondson, my partner in crime! I remember the buzz I got when I first walked into Radio 1 as a guest, 10 years ago, and that buzz is still with me now every time I step through the studio doors. I can't wait to get started! See you there - bright and most definitely early!!"
Her co-presenter is equally thrilled - though he joked working with the 31-year-old beauty is a "nightmare".
He said: "Getting to present the Radio 1 Breakfast Show three days a week is an absolute dream come true, as is working with Mollie (a nightmare is technically still a dream). I know we're going to have so much fun, and I can't wait to get started."
Dev and Alice's new show will retain a number of their popular breakfast show features, such as the 'Kids Ask' celebrity interview segment, but they joked they are sad to be saying goodbye to early morning wake-up calls.
They said: "The thing we will really miss is setting that 4am alarm, but in time we think we might get used to it. We love doing the show together, and the afternoons have such a good energy about them - these shows are ideal for our sense of humour and the kind of things we like to talk about. We can't wait to get started!"
