SINGER Charlotte Church is turning DJ by becoming a guest presenter on BBC Radio 2.

The former child star, who reinvented herself as a pop act, is to be a stand-in for the station's Dermot O'Leary.

It comes as actress Martine McCutcheon also becomes a temporary host on the network, replacing Paul O'Grady for his weekly shows.

Church will host her programme on Saturday July 26 at 3pm.

She said: "I'm hugely passionate about all sorts of music and I can't wait to share some of my favourite tracks."
