Countryfile host Anita Rani is to join Emma Barnett as a presenter of BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour.
She will present the Friday and Saturday editions of the long-running programme, beginning on 15 January.
Rani said she had “long been a fan” of the programme and that she was “really looking forward to getting to know the listeners and discussing issues that matter to them the most”.
Long-time hosts Jane Garvey and Dame Jenni Murray left the show last year.
