JB Gill will be hosting The Hits UK Chart show from this Sunday November 17th whilst regular host Sam Thompson is Down Under…

We’re thrilled to announce that JLS staple and current Strictly Come Dancing contestant JB Gill also has the cha cha charts on his mind, with the news today that he will be covering The Hits UK Chart show from this Sunday (November 17th).

Whilst regular host Sam Thompson is back Down Under for this year’s I’m a Celebrity… Unpacked; JB will be sitting in the Hits Radio hot seat and bringing the nation the forty biggest tracks of the week. Obviously the JLS singer is no stranger to the charts, but this will be the first time that he’s been counting them down rather than listening out for his own chart position!

JB said: ‘What an honour to be covering for my mate Sam whilst he’s in Australia for I’m a Celeb… I have listened to the charts ever since I was a little kid and I’m going to get such a kick out of hosting the show and revealing that all-important number one to listeners. Hope you can all join me from this Sunday to countdown the UK’s biggest hits!’

The Hits UK Chart show brings you the Top 40 UK hits every Sunday from 4pm.
