Jono 38 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingTutsWWH 10 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 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.

fzoe 10 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 This makes me quite sad. I don't think that Chappers can be replaced, he's too much of a legend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John 10 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 Sort of expected. Is he going to concentrate more on TV work etc?All the best Chopper with future endeavoursHow about a bigger on air role for David Garrido? Quote take control Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jono 38 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 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.

the_grove 10 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 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?

Viv 14 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 Well, it Becky is indiscrete enough to post it on the world wide web, they may as well just announce it on air this afternoon. God.

jdog55 10 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 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 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roy H 10 Report post Posted December 17, 2009 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
