A BBC star has quit her show after four years – while revealing her last episode airs this weekend.
Actress and presenter Sarah-Jane Honeywell is best known for working on CBeebies and her BBC radio show.
The 51-year-old revealed her last show on BBC Radio Lincolnshire and BBC Radio Humberside is this weekend.
Taking to Instagram, the presenter wrote a farewell caption to her followers.
She penned: “So sad it’s my last 80’s & 90’s mixed tape show on @bbclincs & @bbchumberside this Sunday – but looking forward to a new chapter!
“No I am not going in to building houses (not getting my Cboobies out either).
“I just want to spend more time with my own boys Phoenix, Indiana & @aydencallaghan.”
Sarah-Jane continued: “I am also steadfastly trying to change the terrible current education system for the performing arts & through the @curioustheatre19 provide more opportunities for underprivileged kids wanting a career in the old showbiz.
“It’s a big fight for little old me to take on but my with my new blonde locks I will give my best go!
“I will miss all my regular listeners terribly but like the terminator – I will be back!
“Thank you @bbclincs for giving me a second chance with the BBC… a feat only myself and the great Richard Bacon have managed I think.
Make sure you tune in for my last show 2-6pm this Sunday on @bbclincs @bbchumberside @bbcsounds – let go out with bang old skool disco style!!! Whatever could go wrong.”

The former CBeebies host from Nottingham posed topless, lying on a giant plate of food in London’s Trafalgar Square, for a now infamous Peta advert.
Additional shots of her in a skimpy vest pouring Diet Coke over her chest soon ended her kids’ TV career.
“After that, all the doors were slammed in my face,” Sarah-Jane told Fabulous in 2023.
“I couldn’t get any auditions because people didn’t take me seriously and just passed me off as a children’s TV weirdo. Financially it was an absolute disaster.”
