Fresh changes to RTÉ 2fm's weekday schedule

A fifth announcement as 2fm continues to shake up its line-up – and, by the looks of it, shed some of its indier elements.

Having departed iRadio last month, Chris Greene and Ciara King are now set to host a show weeknight 10pm – 1am. The Alternative, presented by Dan Hegarty currently holds that timeslot.

It has also been confirmed that the Damien O’Meara-fronted Game On sports show will continue at 7pm and that Louise McSharry will leave weekend breakfasts to present a new show at 8pm during the week.

Over on the weekend schedule, Dave Fanning will now host the 10am to midday slot on both Saturday and Sunday.

Here's the new-look schedule:
