Gaydar Radio revamps schedule and drops Big Brother presenters

Gaydar Radio has revamped its schedule, parting with Richard Newman, Lea Walker, Kris Di Angelis and Cliff Joannou, while introducing new weekend shows including Maria Peters' Jukebox Request.

Popular digital station Gaydar Radio has revamped its schedule, and parted company with former Big Brother contestants Richard Newman and Lea Walker, who have been working as presenters on the station. Also leaving as part of the revamp are Kris Di Angelis and Cliff Joannou. New shows include a Sunday night show hosted by DJ Gary H, a new Sunday morning programmed presented by Neil Sexton and Simon Le Vans, and the arrival of one Maria Peters as host of the weekend afternoon Jukebox Request show.

The station's Programme Controller, Robin Crowley, said the changes "reflect our shift towards a younger audience base of gay, lesbian and gay-friendly dance music lovers who want to be able to access the station across a variety of platforms of choice. Gaydar Radio's success is built on its interactivity with our community of users in the Gaydar chatrooms. The new weekend line-up in particular allows us to extend that dialogue with them further and reach an even wider audience".
