Is Chappers leaving?

Recommended Posts

I still prefer Laura... I will always prefer Laura. Beccy is OK, but a bit too impertinent to Scott. Also didn't like the fact that she missed a 'phone call offering Scott a helicopter ride to a gig, and he wound up travelling by road.

I would have given her a P45 for that.

This is seriously sad. I love Beccy, but Scott, Chappers and Laura were the ones I started listening for. I was really sad when Laura left, but Chappers leaving is gonna be even worse. Sadder still is the fact that there's gonna be no more Chappers and Dave. The year I start uni and could have actually seen them, too! :(

Is Chappers really leaving Radio 1 . Why. I think Scott , Beccy , TOWDS , Chappers , The PR4L and the PR4M make a really good team .

I hope Scott and Beccy don't leave Radio 1 because I think they r both good especially Beccy as I find it funny when she laughs.

Will Scott b watching Celebrity Total Wipeout on the 2nd of January as Sam & Mark r on the show then. I know Fathama Whitbread is also taking part in it as well so is Joe Swash.

To be fair we have all been saying and expecting this for a long time now.

Now, if it was a prank, what a rubbish one.

It was removed and the other person who would do anything about it is Jono, and he has this thread.

Now, if he hadn't looked at twitter in whatever it was, maybe 2 hours while the tweet was there. The 'prank' would be nothing.

Final thought, Becky is so always going to win OWO :)

The thing that dosen't tally up about all this is that Scotts only on for 4 days on breakfast next week then thats the show off until 2010, so if we are to beleive that Chappers is leaving before the end of the year then are they only going to give the listeners 4 days notice? Surely with Chappers being as important to the show as Scott then you think they would make a big deal of him leaving and would have made this public a bit more in advance. I really would be devasted if Chappers left and would proberly not listen really any more as Scott needs Chappers and Becky for the show to work, the way that Moyles would'nt be the same without Dave. Hopefully this is just a prank, but I'm fearing the worst

:( shame.

chappers going is very different to laura leaving the show, laura wasn't that hard to replace (bright & bubble woman) much harder to find someone to replace chappers though when scott has been ill chappers & laura covered with no probs even now chappers & beccy do well when they cover, beccy & towds cannot cover now when scott is away, of course nothing can be done about this it's chappers decision, but i am unsure on how the show will recover from him going, as others have said about his wit & the way he plays the games with scott & beccy will be very hard to replace & i don't think it can because the rapport has been built up over such a long time.

i now think scott's show will now finish next year :(

good luck chopper :)

    • What does that even mean? 😂
    • Not sure what it really means, but Scott Mills is one of the least distracting DJs according to new research. https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/cars/article-13283609/Most-distracting-radio-podcast-hosts-driving-revealed-Mark-Wright-Chris-Evans-list.html It says Radio 1 though, which is not only inaccurate, but also I can only imagine it applying to his Radio 2 show. How many sounds effects did he used to play on Radio 1, ha.
    • I would rather do the new music show than the breakfast show early starts, being cheery and entertaining isn’t my vibe and being hip and on trend. With new music it’s a different kettle of fish that could get my teeth into and enjoy researching and planning of the show and coming up with ideas and making my mark in away that I don’t think I have the ideas for a breakfast. I don’t see how it could be alienating but I enjoy the niche and speciality of expertise that new music shows gives it’s good spot of giving you the headlines and setting the agenda of mainstream music.
    • Absolutely, Jack is such an incredible broadcaster already, incredibly entertaining with such brilliant music knowledge and his excitement is contagious, I've never really listened to New Music Shows like Future Sounds but I'm instantly invested in new music due to his show, as I'm sure many others are too.  yes the effects are a little strange but after listening back they're strangely charming when you get used to them. 
    • Jack has smashed it He was born for this show, he said he’d been dreaming of it and you could tell. Such passion and energy as always with Jack but in a show that can grab people’s attention and drag them down the rabbit hole of new music if you had a keen interest in discovering new music but haven’t in a while, new music shows can be alienating with no familiarity until you ‘get into it’ - the new show has ensured you can ease into to get back into sync . i love the Zane influences - he will be the forefront of where every emerging and returning artist wants to be with this show . Very excited for this chapter
    • Oh I though they were nbh studios   
    • Yes, I feel that unless it’s for a special sessions with a large ensemble band that for live sessions going out live on the radio. Never saw why they haven’t used the live lounge studio and feel that room could be used more.  
    • Interesting now Zane has for apple interviewed anything from an artists that have charted and doing less interviews with new and emerging talents chatting to Shakira, Usher, Kelly Clarkson and Shania Twain. Yes, that is a positive thing about Jack Saunders. Although I don’t mind it from time to time for a presenter to be honest and spill an unsavoury opinion about music on the station like Annie did with Fall Out Boy.
    • Interesting Jack mentioned they've got new studios at Maida Vale; you'd think, with the move to Stratford, they wouldn't bother update the studios so close to the end...
    • I assume it's meant to appeal to a TikTok generation
    • Yep Jack is very much Radio 1's modern day Zane Lowe - but with the bonus that he does feel a bit a bit more open-minded and open to chart stuff than Zane was. I could never imagine Zane being a chart host the way Jack is - I always had the sense if Zane didn't approve of your music taste he'd make you well aware of it.
    • I will still call them sessions as feel with gigs it makes you think of a live tangible means of going to listen to a band play music and not virtually tuning in via the medium of radio.
    • He does what the show needs regardless of how annoying some people may find his presentation style is like. I feel and very much do hope he is in for the long haul and could atleast do four years where his energy may into be as always as bouncy. But he has the knowledge, passion and interaction and not so overbearing but very much so sense of confidence that you need. I think he could easily have a good Zane Lowe like era. Just hope that they consider doing a new late night live music show as I do miss that something of what he had in the early days of the indie show and when Huw Stephens was on live at the after ten slot
    • Speaking of the sessions, they've been renamed Live Gigs for any forum members not listening to the show & reading this later
