With fan-favourite duo Hamish & Andy set to hang up the headphones at the end of the year, it has today been announced who will step into the drive slot in 2018.
In a radio first, the Hit Network has today confirmed that Dave 'Hughesy' Hughes & Kate Langbroek will make the switch from ARN in a new dual drive show.
Carrie Bickmore and Tommy Little will continue their 3pm duties on the station, before Hughesy & Kate take over from 4.30pm, Monday to Friday.
The news comes on the same day it was confirmed Hughes and Langbroek will not be renewing their contracts with KIIS after a three-year stint.
"We are delighted one of radio's most enduring and hilarious duets, Hughesy and Kate, are joining our new Drive line up for 2018," Hit Network's Head of Content, Gemma Fordham, said.
"The commute home is when we let go, relax and leave the work day behind and the Hit Network is committed to entertaining all people on their way, whether it is at 3pm, 5pm or 6pm.
"To be able to also confirm Carrie and Tommy, a show which just gets better and better, really does give the Hit Network and its audience the best of both worlds in 2018."
Hamish & Andy will continue pursuing TV opportunities next year, following the success of their latest series, True Story with Hamish & Andy.
