1D, Little Mix and The Vamps set for own Christmas Day radio shows

BBC Radio 1 will be hosting a series of special hour-long programmes on Christmas Day (December 25) that will be called the Superstar Playlist.

Each slot will be presented by an incredibly exciting band or act and they will create their own show based on the music they want to play. The Vamps, One Direction, Little Mix, and Demi Lovato have all been given their own shows throughout the afternoon and evening.

Boyband One Direction admitted that they're very excited for the takeover and told the BBC: "The best present this Christmas will be coming round to Alice Levine's and sharing the day with the Radio 1 listeners."

Pop-rock band The Vamps also have big things planned for their early evening hour-long slot and they added: “We’re so excited to give the BBC Radio 1 DJs a run for their money by taking over the decks on Christmas Day playing our favourite choooons and chatting about reeeally important things like snow, turkey vs beef debate and presents. Come party with us at 6pm. The playlist is mega!”
