Sounds lol

As I said earlier (I am a radio professional and know these things) he will be bound by an NDA about the new job so cannot comment. The Beeb would have put him on Gardening leave immediately as his new role is a conflict of interest.

Maybe they are going for the method that "Drive host is main breakfast dep/in waiting" again like when Scott was on drive he was main breakfast cover clearly Jordan is the next in line for Breakfast although stranger things have happened (Moyles left and Grim came when everyone thought it would be Scott) wouldnt suprise me at all if RMC are next breakfast

Charlie did not over react, she shut it down, probably protecting her and Arielle's careers. As we have said she was professional and dealt with it like anyone should have - by the book.

Maybe V&K to weekday afternoons from Salford? 

Grimshaw and North to swap I suspect and at the same time RMC would get Mids on Friday as well 
September 2022 Mills to R2 M&M to weekday afternoons Monday - Friday, Jordan takes on chart so is on drive 5 days making Friday daytime back to being part of the week 

I wonder if they would move her to drive if Grim left?

Thank you Lee, hope you enjoy what I've shared here

How about this 
who would like to arrange a meet for members of the site in London near NBH? like a coffee/lunch scenario and see if Scott and some of the team could come to meet us and chat for an hour or so? I thought a Friday at like 11am to meet and invite Scott Chris maybe his producer? so we could meet our hero and just say hi or is it like weird? and people say you should never meet your idol? 

I reckon he does, he had a BBC lanyard on and looked like he was probably why it's such a good show 

It seems a strange move and could be spelling the end of the 1-4 show on R1 meaning he'll just do Friday chart, Saturday on 5 and maybe weekday cover on R2? although the article clearly says no plan to bin the weekday R1 show off yet 
Funny enough Moyles was a whoooo today in the whoo game 
He may well be steering towards only working Fri/Sat/Sun and this is a step towards it as his partner Sam is on Nation Radio Saturdays in Cardiff so probably has to travel down Friday night therefore it may suit Scott personally to be doing weekends and have Monday to Thursday off to be with Sam who has just moved to London 

Towards the end he was very up his own arse but the audience liked this I think so he played up to it 
He doesn't seem as much like that now but at the end of the day he was out of touch with the Radio 1 audience and it needed a refresh 
You have to remember Scott is less than a month younger than Chris Moyles and he's still going strong becuase he is in touch and embraces the changes, like being moved slot, yes afternoons were a demotion from drive but it's given him a new lease of life which has led to him doing the chart - he is the only R1 presenter on all 5 weekdays, get's the most on air time of all (15hrs) that's one hour more a week than Greg is getting and hes now got two more hours on Sunday nights until Christmas on Radio 2 
Sara Cox survived at R1 two more years than Moyles as well remember that 

I wonder what will happen to Ben Cooper?

So it's a year since Greg opened with a TMTO what do we all think one year into his tenure on breakfast? I think he's making a good job of it and has turned it round from the stale old show with Grimmy, also he has made it him and you, 1 on 1 not Tina, not Sinade not Fiona, just you and Greg, its a complete contract to what was before 
I think he is a stayer, and as a geek he will definitely want to beat Moyles' record 
Very sad that Scott is not Dep anymore though as it was always great 
Should Greg have taken over from CM in 2012? IMO NO because it was a massive institution to follow and I think biding his time has paid off 
 

Maybe Lorna Clark is influencing stuff already? or Aled is shaking things up?  

I can see Charlie as a future replacement for Jam on Dance Anthems actually the "club charlie" feature is great on Thursday at 2230 
She will be more on target and probably do some live mixing too 

I would say probably correct, that Scott Mills was definately offered the gig and turned it down - bit of a kick to Jamie Theaktson to know he was second fiddle after being in the slot for some years
Wonder what made Scott turn it down - was it the fact he would have been working with Amanda Holden lol
As for Greg - I would say he will go for Moyles' record and try to do 9/10 years being the radio nerd he is, but it depends how long you can hack early mornings although he has Chris Evans' wish of being 4 days only
 
I can see Scott on afternoons for some time yet too as him Adele and Clara are the only constant on daytime currently after recent changes to both weekday and weekend schedules but maybe start to cover shows on Radio 2 like SWITA and Ken Bruce? Also of note Sara Cox has had no real "leave" since being on drive, wonder if there is potential for Scott to cover this slot?
It will be interesting to see what happens to the three from Kiss - maybe they have potential to replace Grimmy on drive one day ? and give Dev and Alice the night show weekdays where they can be smutty and allow Jordan to have weekend afternoons and be the cover for weekday shows as well - Dev definately deserves a slot on daytime even if it is the 9pm one nightly
 
 

Definitely a demotion specially as Scott is chart host too 
Dev deserves a weekday slot IMO 

Actually I think your theory could be one that’s correct - after all Scott is already doing drive on a Friday so why not add the other four 
His Dance anthems has been renamed too to Party Anthems 
What I think will happen is there will be major changes when the new controller for Radio 1&2 is announced (has it been?) if this is Ben Cooper as predicted maybe he’ll make major changes 
 
But yes I 100% agree Scott’s show sounds fresher than ever and it’s also been really good to hear him solo as well

It needs a Radio 1.5, as many describe it 
Maybe call it Radio 1 plus 
Fronted by someone like Scott, Greg Dev and all 
Get people like Fearne Cotton on it and Trevor Nelson Dave Pearce 
Could be as per R1 from 7pm-630am 
Breakfast Scott weekdays 
10-1 Fearne Cotton
1-4 Dev 
4-7 Dave Pearce 
Weekends Breakfast Alice
10-1 Huw Stevens 
1-4 Trevor Nelson Sat and someone else Sun 
4-7 someone new? 

I listened to the whole show and thought he was absolutely briliant, at home, on target and sounded amzingly different but the same if that makes sense
I felt it was more "him" as in he was being himself more and we heard more of his personality coming out as opposed to quick fire segs on R1 and links
I reckon he spoke for more time yesterday on R2 than he has done on R1 for a long time
He showed a "mature" approach and adapted well but still some of the Scott we know and love coming out
If i was to vote it was a yassss from me, bring him on again and I would even go as far to say, if he moved to R2 I would quit R1 and not even bother with Greg anymore
Loved the bants with Sally Traffic and loved the music, seemed more up his street than R1 ever does and even he commented that it wasnt constant Drake i think in a link
I tweeted him with some love after as well and had a reply which made my day
