Nova 100 has this afternoon announced Tommy Little and Meshel Laurie will be the new hosts of Nova Melbourne’s breakfast show from next year.

The radio duo will replace Dave Hughes and Kate Langbroek who announced last month that they would be finishing at the end of 2013.

Nova would not comment on the what the change meant for Nova’s national Drive show which is hosted by Laurie, Tim Blackwell and Marty Sheargold. However, a Nova spokeswoman did confirm that Blackwell and Sheargold would return next year in the drive time slot.

Mike Cass, dmg Radio’s Assistant Group Program Director said: “2014 will be an exciting year for breakfast radio in Melbourne and I’m massively excited that we’ve got Tommy & Meshel leading that charge. With one of the nation’s hottest comedians and one of the funniest and most accomplished broadcasters in the business, Nova 100’s breakfast listeners are in good hands.”
