BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra have announced a series of changes to the station's schedules, with Adele Roberts moving to Radio 1 to host the Early Breakfast Show, weekdays 4-6.

30am. Gemma Cairney will become the station's social action presenter, hosting The Surgery (Wednesdays, 9-10pm) and presenting special documentaries for Radio 1 and 1Xtra Stories (Tuesdays, 9-10pm). Jamz Supernova is to present a new RnB weekly Saturday afternoon show (4-7pm), and 1Xtra's A.Dot will host the 1-4pm weekend show. Roberts commented 'This is a dream come true! I've absolutely loved every minute of working at 1Xtra and I'm now honoured to be part of the Radio 1 early morning crew, and I hope I can fill the headphones of the radio greats that have sat in that seat before'.
