North East’s Steve and Karen launch breakfast show on Hits Radio 00s
Steve Furnell and Karen Oxley have been waking up the region for more than 20 years, previously on Galaxy, then Metroradio and TFM before it was renamed Hits Radio.
The pair built up a loyal following with their breakfast show before it was axed as part of a wider shake-up of regional programming last year, and they moved to Hits Radio 90s.
From Monday (July 20) the duo are simultaneously hosting breakfast on both Hits Radio 90s and Hits Radio 00s.
It means listeners on both stations can enjoy the Geordie duo’s show, but choose which decade of music they prefer.
Hits Radio Content Director, Paul Gerrard, said: “Steve and Karen are brilliant broadcasters with an incredible connection with audiences.
“It’s the best of both worlds – fantastic presenters and the right soundtrack for each audience.”
Joel Ross previously presented the Hits Radio 00s breakfast show.
