Simon Amstell and Miquita Oliver are to leave Popworld in April after five years presenting the show.
The duo will go on to pursue new - but separate - projects: Oliver will continue as presenter on T4 while Amstell is being primed for his own music/comedy show.
Popworld, shown on Saturday mornings, is one of Channel 4's most important brands, pulling in a huge 53% share amongst adults 16-34. It also has a repeat window on MTV.
T4 commissioning editor Neil McCallum told Broadcast that he was seeking a new team to replace Amstell and Oliver but admitted they would be a "tough act to follow".

Its a shame to see them leave i think
I always watch Popworld!
There a great team.
