British reality star Sam Thompson is set to take over weeknights on Hits Radio UK, commencing January 9.

Thompson commented 'I cannot wait to bring all my favourite new artists, tunes and entertainment picks to Hits listeners across the UK - and to finally have a lie-in on a Sunday morning! From January 9th join me from 7pm every Monday to Thursday for great music, great gossip - just general all-round greatness. Weeknights are the new weekends!'.
