BBC Radio 1 controller Andy Parfitt said: “I am absolutely delighted that Chris has agreed to host the new breakfast show. In a market that is getting more competitive by the month, I think Chris is going to be just what our audience is looking for.”

Moyles added: “I am really chuffed – I’ve said for ages that I am the saviour of Radio 1, now it looks I am finally going to have the chance to prove it!”

Sara Cox said: “I have had a great time doing the breakfast show over the last few years but I have to say the thought of finally being able to have a lie in is extremely appealing.”
