It's been discussed a bit in other threads so I thought I'd put it to the vote.

Would he work well with Chris and Dave in the mornings or would you rather see him move to afternoons with cox?

He should stay on the breakfast show when Chris moves to it. He was quite funny on the show today.

I think he should stay, Chris would rip him to pieces when he messes up reading the sports news, which would be funny.

Chappers should definitely stay on the breakfast show! He's a funny bloke and would work well with Moyles and Comedy Dave.

I'm not bothered. It's not as if the show will be losing anything if he doesn't read the sport, Chris and Dave could just talk about the sport news.

Cox might still want him as her sidekick on afternoons.

do you think cox will care? my bet is she will put little or no effort into her new show until her contract is up.

She's due a baby anyway me thinks.

Come on Carter, get her off the radio for a while.

The Zoe and Sara Show - coming soon to Xfm

Xfms ratings are doing good at the moment though. I doubt they'd want Cox joining and bringing the station down.

Well, it's been announced now that Chappers is staying on breakfast when Moyles takes over, now all we've got to see is if George is going to stay where she is or not.

Forgive my ignorance but when was this announced?
Was it on Coxy's show?

It's just I've been out all day and the only bit of Radio 1 I caught was Moyles - and he didn't mention it in his show.

As for the news reader on next year's breakfast show, I'm not really that fussed if George stays on afternoons and doesn't move. A key part of reading the news on Chris's show is to be willing to talk about your "private life" aswell, like becoming a fifth member of the team. Chappers obviously fits into this category but whenever Chris has asked George about her private life on air, she's always been really defensive, moody and unwilling to talk about it.

By the way, Chappers is not going to breakfast, he is staying with Sara in the afternoons.
By David
#132667
Yeah - heard this on the football anual today...

I think thats good. With Chappers and Dave I on, I think the show could become to football oariantated at times.

So does that mean Garridiot is going to breakfast? Does anyone know whos the news reader for breakfast yet?
By David
#132670
The thing about afternoons were, they didnt have any one particular news reader... it would never stay the same person for long, although Garrido in the later days was on a lot.

The way Chris was speaking though - George wouldn't be going to breakfast.
By MC

yeah by the sounds of it georgina, chappers and garido aren't going to breakfast then. I still think it'll be Dominic Bryne reading the news but I have no idea about the sport now. In the past few months Chappers and Garido have been the two main sports reporters on R1 and with neither seemingly on breakfast I wonder if someone new is coming in?

I also thought Chappers and Dave's show was quite good today...

There wasn't much talk about team news or look back at the season so far that I'd expected, It was quite good though.
