Amstell and Oliver quit C4's 'Popworld'
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".
