Bauer Radio has revealed its new line-ups for Liverpool-based stations Radio City 2 and Radio City Talk.
Bauer was last month given the green light to change the licences at the stations, and both have also switched frequencies.
The new line-ups, which will launch on December 7th, see current Key 103 presenter Darren Proctor move to take over the morning show on Radio City 2.
And Simon Ross (pictured above), who left the Radio City breakfast show last year after six years at the helm, will return to the slot on Radio City 2 in direct competition to his replacements, Leanne Campbell-Power and Dave Kelly.
