Chris Evans is to take over presenting 大象传媒 Radio 2's Drivetime show (Monday to Friday, 5.00-7.00pm).
听
Chris - who currently presents a show on Saturday afternoons on the network - will start his new weekday show on Tuesday 18 April.

Chris says: "To take over the Drivetime time show from Johnnie Walker is an absolute honour.
听
"The guy is a legend, he's also very special to me as he helped get me my first job at the 大象传媒 way back in 1990.
听
"As for the show itself Drivetime is hugely important. In many ways it mirrors the breakfast show as a transition for people between work and home.
听
"It's our job to help that journey be less of a thing to dread and more of a thing to look forward to."
听
Lesley Douglas, Controller, Radio 2, says: "Johnnie Walker is a hard act to follow. Chris Evans is a brilliant radio talent who has already scored a hit with his weekend show and I know he will give the audience a great new show for weekdays."
