Danny Wallace to take over Xfm breakfast show
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 5 July 2011
With Mary Anne Hobbs and Mix Master Mike ready to take up positions on the Xfm Saturday night schedule this weekend, the radio station has announced another new recruit. From 1 Aug, writer and broadcaster Danny Wallace will take over the Breakfast show from 6.30am to 10am. Wallace has previously appeared in Xfm’s Saturday afternoon slot.
Announcing the news, Wallace said: “It’s a thrill to join Xfm once more – I had such fun doing my Saturday afternoon shows there a while back. Doing a breakfast show has always been an ambition of mine. I’ve covered breakfast for X and elsewhere in the past and it’s a fantastic time to do a show – but to be able to do my own thing is exciting. I’ve huge respect for everyone off- and on-air at X and to broadcast overlooking Leicester Square each day will be ace. And it’ll be fun being a cheeky underdog. I want to make it an exclusive club that anyone’s allowed to join”.
