Just seen Beccy's tweet which strongly suggests Chappers is off before the year is out:

Yay! just one more christmas gift and chappers leaving present to get and I'm all done! Am sooo proud of myself! Xx 40 minutes ago from UberTwitter

Edit: Scott announced on 18/12/2009 that four will become three on Christmas Eve.

Not really a surprise, but a shame. I'll miss the grumpy so and so. He was the perfect foil to Scott and Beccy.

Is he going to be replaced, or will Beccy take a larger role in the show now? Or will TOWDS start speaking? Hmmm.

Sort of expected. Is he going to concentrate more on TV work etc?

All the best Chopper with future endeavours

How about a bigger on air role for David Garrido?

I think we could see from the new ESPN work that he's doing along with the BBC work that it was goign to be tough to juggle - especially as a lot of that work is in the evening and would require the afternoons to do that.

Newsbeat will have lost two legends in one month! Plus Carrie will be off after this Christmas there's going to be a lot of boots to fill.

I think Beccy has a strong rapport with Scott now to keep things running smoothly but there needs to be an additional team members for stuff like Oh What's Occurring - even if they were to axe it now.

Haha.

Okay. Shame that Chappers is leaving, the show won't be the same without him.

I wonder what the original plan was and how Beccy's tweet is going to change that. Whan did they plan to reveal that Chappers is leaving? Was anything special planned? And what are they going to do now with the news already out? Anounce it on today's show? Keep quiet?

Becky also posted on her twitter "that shouldn't have happened" after she posted about Chappers leaving but that's since been deleted. Chappers leaving in my opinion is a disaster for the show and one it might not recover from, itl be me finished with the show anyway

I wouldnt want to see him go. Mind you, when Laura left I thought it wouldnt be good for the show but look who we have now, the hugely likeable and multi talent that is Beccy Huxtable.......... :)

No, I'm not fawning, I really enjoy her input to the show.

    • I’m have no interest in listening to GK Barry so it shall be Sounds or Spotify for me.
    • Agree completely about not having her on a Thursday, but 2 solid weeks would most likely be too much!!
    • Let's hope so, as forcibly taking off one of the best shows on the station one day a week would rival Aled's employment of Danny Beard as his worst decision.
    • Matt was doing this musical thing so could be that?
    • This GK Barry thing is so weird. Surely they’d give her a slot in the summer instead of ripping up the schedule at the start of the year. Casual listeners will think the change is permanent as it’s lined up with the rest of the schedule changing.    Surely doing the two week stint that James is doing on Going Home would be better. 
    • Oh I’d forgotten about GK Barry. I do wonder whether Matt & Mollie requested to drop Thursdays or were forced. It’s so random to have a different show on a Thursday afternoon
    • Some notes about the schedules released from the 5th September. James is still down to do Weekend Breakfast, it might be his last weekend. Nat and Vicky are down to do the 4th-5th September but generic listings on the 6th Sep. Callum Leslie in for Lauren on Life Hacks. Looks like there will be an Indie show on both the 6th and 8th September as it moves to it new slot. GK Barry begins her run of shows on the 10th September, it's called The GK Barry Show on Radio 1.
    • Early Hours Schedule Changes  Wednesday 1am/2am Radio1 Dance Presents - Moved from Thursdays 1am/2am Thursday 1am/2am Danny Howard's Club Mix - Moved from Fridays 1am/2am   Friday 1am/2am R1 Workout Anthems - Replacing Danny H Ckub Mix 2am/3am R1 Pop Anthems - Replacing the 2h R1 Anthems Show  3am/4am R1 Pop Anthems - Replacing the 2h R1 Anthems Show    Saturdays 2am/3am Danny Howard's Club Mix - Moved from Saturdays 3am/4am 3am/4am Radio1 Dance Anthems with Charlie Hedges   *No R1 Dance Presents Show on a Saturday Morning  
    • R1 Schedule Changes We Knew about before they got removed: 14th - 16th Aug & 21st - 23rd Aug: Mylo & Rosie sit in for Sam & Danni 15th & 16th Aug: Minah sits in for Vicky 15th Aug: DJ Kizzi sits in for Jerry 15th & 22nd Aug: Connor Coates sits in for Charlie Hedges 18th & 25th Aug: Jordan Blyth sits in for Alyx Holcombe
    • Interesting how it still says Group Chat with Nat & Vicky?
    • New weekday schedule starts W/C 7th September. Also as predicted, Mylo & Rosie start at 4am.
    • Agreed. I wasn't expecting the gap to be as long as this, and we've not even got an announcement yet. I know they needed to get breakfast sorted, but we knew who was taking over within 4 weeks of Gary stepping in.  
    • In fairness almost all the presenters this summer have done two week stints. It’s bizarre that the interim show itself is continuing this far into the year though. 
    • W/C 7th September. Rather unsurprisingly, a new drivetime show isn't being launched this week. Gary Davies is listed still. I wonder if he'll now do a stint on drive until any new show launches.
    • Of course completely understand it's not the most important thing to work on, but that doesn't explain how some updates have been made and then removed, that's even more work than just doing the update and leaving it!
