Capital Summertime Ball 2024

[Dave1]

They haven't presented a show together in months and then i saw this....

''BBC Radio 1's Chappers and Dave performed their last ever gig together at Harper in November and tickets for the event sold out within days. The gig was so popular that an additional marquee was put up alongside the bar to cater for the guests.''

Maybe this has been mentioned before and i have just missed it but was just wondering if it is true or not and whether it includes having anymore radio shows together.

[JonathanEx]

Uhhhm. They played my Uni last night and it was immense. The World Tour is still on.

Anyway, they're a cover show, and when cover isn't needed...

[The Stig]

Aled you normally put our mind at ease when we panic about stuff like this. I'm not sure I could cope in life without occasional Chappers and Dave.

[yorkieboy]

Thought they'd have been obvious cover for Cox rather than Huw who's a new music DJ...

[E*F*4L]

is Dave1 the real Dave ?

[Dave1]

is Dave1 the real Dave ?

Haha, that would be a suprise wouldnt it!

Starting rumours about himself etc etc....

But i'm afraid im not the director of comedy but just a 18 year old student from Gloucester....

Sorry to disappoint EF4L!

[Jono]

Yeah it's all an act. Comedy Dave is actually a geek that never leaves the computer.

[The Stig]

Nah I like Huw on daytime, he's fresh and something different. Always nice to hear chatting, in fact I'd rather listen to three hours of him than Fearne Cotton.

[Jono]

If Chappers and Dave have split it'll be the biggest shock to hit Manchester since the split of Oasis again.

[DarkAngelMJH]

I love Huw on daytime, playing S Club was funny. But I have to agree Chappers & Dave splitting up would need a hell of a lot of therapy for loads of people

[yorkieboy]

Nothing against Huw think he did a good job just saying that slot normally goes to chappers and dave.

[yorkieboy]

Dave on Richard Bacon show tonight even though he was on a couple of weeks back. Don't know if he's plugging something else or it's just because he forgot to plug the parody album last time!

[Jono]

"It's not the end of Chappers and Dave" says Chappers this morning.

Although he says obviously the show will end on Radio 1. Beccy asked if they were moving to Heart or 6Music. He said it would be just the gigs for now.

[The Stig]

Well that's something at least

[me_54m]

I think that even though he said that there could be a possibility that he gets ask to help Dave do a show when it gets to august and pre-schedule-shake time.

On a separate note Huw's one of the random world people - yesterday when he was on about Submarines igloos and what not.

I don't see why if R1 wanted him and Dave to carry on covering shows and he wanted to just do that then he could as it not like he is leaving the Beeb. I can now also see why they are trying out Jaymo and Andy Geroge as every radio station needs a double act

Ferne & Natalie Jameson.

Gregg and Producer Neil.

Okay I forgot about Nick and Annie. But Out of the them all only Nick and Annie are advertised as a double act the rest may work on the show but are not advertised as a double act.

If Chappers wanted to carry on the Chappers and Dave gigs then surly having Chappers and Dave as a cover radio show at least on Radio 1 (i.e. covering for Sara when she's on maternity) would give them more gigs.

And after all, the BBC was created to give Chappers and Dave more gigs.

[Jono]

I don't know. BBC One's Mark Chapman and Radio 1's Comedy Dave probably sounds more promising on the sales pitch.

[Jugalug]

BBC One's Mark Chapman

Who?

[The Stig]

Who?

TOTD (The one that disappeared)

[Jugalug]

Ooohh, clever. Kinda.
