12–14 April 2005: Big Weekend revealed and You’ve Been Busted returns

 

Alrite Treacle?! I'm sorry about the short reviews for these few days. This is mainly to do with illness which has meant I've not had much time to do some reviews…

You've Been Busted

The “BUSTED” feature was back. No, don’t worry, that’s not the “teen pop sensation”, but the feature where Scott finds out the truth about those pretending to be someone else.

Scott managed to find out the truth about one listeners boyfriend who tried to pull himself off as the drummer from Maroon 5. The feature began by ringing the guy up and pretending to be on a quiz for Radio 1. But the boyfriend didn’t manage to answer the question correctly about Maroon 5. He then had to go very quickly when Scott introduced the guy to the actual drummer from Maroon 5.

One Big Weekend

The main focus on Thursday was the announcement of 'Radio 1's Big Weekend' which is taking place on the 7th and 8th of May in Sunderland. Scott announced a few who will be appearing during the weekend, and the venue. As in normal Radio 1 style, the trails and announcements will continue for another week, and by the end of the next week you'll think the first announcement was months ago.

Celebrity Call

This week we had Alan Partridge calling an estate agent, Arnie calling California, Del Boy ringing a speed dating agency and Mr Incredible ringing “A Stitch In Time”.

But shock horror, it’s the end of Celebrity Call for the time being. No more Zippy, Homer or Spongebob making those phone calls daily. But don’t worry. Here at Unofficial Mills, providing we can get some web space, we’ll be hosting about 15 celebrity calls from the past few weeks for you to download. Watch this space.

Rate My Listener

Rachel from Mansfield was rated 34% g’morning on Tuesday. Adam from Northamptonshire was rated 32%. Nina from Sandhurst was rated 27% (although her photograph apparently had to be cropped) and Angus was rated 57% minging. Probably because of his chav status.

Scott & Chappers on Most Haunted

Scott will be appearing on LIVINGtv’s Most Haunted on Tuesday night with his side-kick Chappers. Scott was looking for pubs and clubs that will air the programme for those who don’t have Sky. Find out where the nearest pub or club showing this by going to The Mills pages of Radio 1 online.

Remember – Tuesday 19th March. 9pm. LIVINGtv (Sky Digital 112 or +1 hour on 113)

Photographs from Most Haunted are also now on Radio 1 Online.
