Kelly Osbourne is to present a show on BBC Radio 1, after the station announced a major shake-up of its schedule, with a new focus on under-18s.

Osbourne will host Radio 1's Surgery - part of the new "teen zone" on Sunday evenings.

She also joins the West End cast of 'Chicago' next week.

Chris Moyles' breakfast show will get an extra 30 minutes, starting at 6.30am.

The schedule changes will come into effect on 12 October.

"It's important that we keep up the pace of change and innovation both on air and online," said Andy Parfitt, the controller of Radio 1, 1Xtra and Teens.

"The Sunday PM lineup, which I'm delighted includes Kelly Osbourne, is a great addition to a zone that will include Fearne Cotton, Reggie Yates and Annie Mac."
