Award-winning presenter Eddie Mair is joining LBC, and will host a new radio show on the station from September.

The veteran presenter, who worked on BBC's Radio 4 for the last two decades until his resignation from the corporation on July 1, commented 'LBC has established itself as a ground-breaking broadcaster. Innovative, informed and fun with appointment-to-listen shows and a reputation for setting the agenda, its growth has been driven by bosses and staff who are passionate about radio, which is why I am eager to get started'.
