He wasn't sacked was he? I thought this time off was prearranged because last week Scott Mills was on about Cilla being on instead yesterday.

I'm guessing it's something personal though cos Mills isn't allowed to talk about it.

Then again, I know sod all.

I'd be interested to hear what he was sacked for?

Knowing the BBC he probably make the mistake of playing a prank on someone at the Christmas party (or should that be 'festive season party?') and broke some health and safety rule [section 214.b - pranks causing people to laugh are banned incase people choke on their tongues whilst laughing]

"The story is Chappers is fired, "following an incident at the Radio 1 Staff Party", so will be replaced with Cilla in Monday.

He actually went on holiday after the staff party. The firing thing came about after Scotts and Cillas new TV show was announced."

From the Chris Moyles website.. After some searching to answer the question cos I'm bored

I was listening to the radio earlier and moylesy had said that scott mills should say why chappers aint around and millsy replied its not really for him to say but what he did say was its something that happened at the christmas do and Jo Whiley was the person most offended by what happened and said if anyone should mention it on air its for Jo to say so MAYBE listening to Jo 2moz might reveal what happened.

either way Im glad to see the back of the glory supporting prat....

Its all pantomine just to get the ratings up. It'll all be legit, if it was a sacking or anything like that they definately wouldn't go on about it like that. He'll be on holiday or something similar.

Everyone on Radio 1 comes across as total ***** to me.

They all try too hard to be "cool".

from R1 website:

We're very proud to announce that Chappers has been replaced on the show by the First Lady of television, Dame Cilla Black.
After the departure of Chappers following an incident at the Radio 1 Staff Party, Cilla will take over his duties as of Monday.



This will include becoming Queen Of Facts on the Big Fact Hunt as well as delivering the sports news in her own inimitable style.

Scott says, "It's a dream come true to work with someone of Cilla's calibre finally. No offence to Chappers but I think his act had got a bit stale."

"Cilla will bring a new freshness to the show. I think we'll have a lorra lorra laughs!"





cilla - WTF!! - the buck toothed scouse boot - come back chappers, all is forgiven.
