Yes, I was thinking that HMV might move into the new development. I can't see Next moving, or losing 1/2 of their shop (which is 1 of their biggest branches).
The official site says "Conversion of an existing pair of shops into a one and two storey arcade and shop units. The intention with this break-through is to create a physical link to Peter's Lane from Church Street. The form of the existing building above ground level is to be respected and the new break-through to be sympathetic to the strong symmetry of the Church Street facade"

and it looks like it's Top Shop or HMV rather than Next on this small image:
