Anita Anand joins Sam Walker for Double Take on 5 Live

Anita Anand will join Sam Walker in presenting Double Take, the new Sunday news programme that starts on Sunday 17 July on Radio 5 Live (9.30-11am).

Anita brings a heavyweight political and news background to the presenting duties, regularly presenting the Daily Politics on ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Two. Anita is also a familiar voice on 5 Live having presented 5 live Drive for three years alongside Peter Allen before taking maternity leave in 2010.

Double Take will take a fresh look at the big stories of the previous week and anticipate the coming week's news with big guests and interrogate what lies behind the headlines.

Anita's co- presenter Sam Walker hosts a daily afternoon show on Manchester's Key 103 and is a regular presenter on ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Radio Manchester.

Radio 5 Live Controller, Adrian Van Klaveren, said: "In Sam and Anita I think we have a great blend. Anita is a powerful and authoritative voice in politics and news and I think she will be the ideal complement to Sam who is a really exciting new talent to bring to Radio 5 Live."
