19 July 2005: Star Phone, Rate Them Happy and Flirt Divert

 

Well it's Tuesday, and another day of The Scott Mills Show – part of the radio 'Fantastic Five'. So how are you today? Don't answer, you can't. On with the review…

Tuesday Talk

According to Scott 4.10 appears to be the 'shinny new R'n'B moment' on Radio 1 – yesterday it was Craig David, today it was Lemar.

Bit of random talk about Eastenders today. Scott's not been watching for a while, but liking the Alfie Love Triange – but confused as to why Pat is dressing differently and acting different. She's taken over the bookies now after Dennis was given it after Andy's death… Ah, it's all complicated but the texters fully explained that to him.

Today Scott had a secret weapon – Schnappi the Crocodile – it's worse than the Brown Noise. JK & Joel were recently talking about this, and it's been very popular in places such as Germany and it's now coming our way. It could quite possibly be worse than the Crazy Frog. Scott was prepared to play Schnappi if he got any trouble on the texts, e-mail or off Chappers.

Chappers: "Only you could be tough enough to threaten us with a crocodile"

Rate Them Happy

Sassy, from Grimbsy, is today's Rate My Swimwear person. She needs a better duvet I must say and didn't have a lot on. She's a 30-year-old dinner lady at a teenage-aged school. She has nothing to do with the food. Scott reckons she's a '31C' but she's actually a '34C'.

Scott: "Go online and weigh… rate her"

Chappers: "I don't think we weight her"

Go online and rate her happy at Radio 1 Online. It's not going too great at the moment, could be down to the duvet cover…

It's that Friday thong?

That Friday Thing

Chappers: "I've had an idea"

Scott: "Woah let's stop the music"

Chappers read that every Friday a lady in Manchester runs down a street naked, at the same time, in just her trainers. Chappers reckons that as part of Radio 1's 'Summer Friday Thing' that Laura should run around London naked with just her trainers on. He suggests somewhere like Oxford Street where there'll be a lot of crowds. If she wanted an ASBO this is probably a better way to get one! This provoked a lot of pervy texts, many wanting to travel to see Laura do this.

Chappers: "A lot of people asking if Laura is fit, of course she is, she can run a street in no time"

Flirrrrrt Diverrrrrt

Laura and one the off-air team members already has a new dance for this new jingle. There was one guy pondering over a 'fit' girl, and whether to give them the Flirt Divert number as he already has a partner. Scott and Chappers reckons that you should just tell the truth.

The first message was a guy really creepily singing 'I Love You', followed by a pause, and then continues. Woah, cringey! Then there was a psycho woman, who's clearly found the Flirt Divert number in her boyfriend's phone. As Roy Walker would say: "she sounds lovely".

The guy singing could have been Darius according to one caller.

Only the big names

Star Phone

The Star Phone was back again today. Chappers was hoping that Scott would leave his microphone up, as in all of the other calls he put his microphone down. Sarah from Girls Aloud passed the phone on last night at 'The Wellington' in London. The caller wanted to know if the phone camera was on, as Mariah was in the tub and Cheryl was about to have a bath. She gave a few clues, she said she's from a girl band, and correctly guessed she was from Atomic Kitten. After a few guesses, it's Jenni from Atomic Kitten. She said she lives a few doors away from Coxy, but they don't want that! The charger wasn't passed on, and Jenni said she'd go out and buy one, but would she hell! She's planning to go to the 'Big Gay Out' at the weekend so she might pass the phone on then, but Scott doesn't want any one from Big Brother – thank god. Quite a few interesting artists playing there, but hopefully she won't pass it back to Girls Aloud.

You can choose anything tonight apart from something by Gareth Gates, I don't remember which one he chose, but still – they're all R for Rubbish! Chappers had a girl on the air who was about to do some 'stripping' – that's wallpaper stripping. Apparently JK and Joel said that Chappers usually sounds desperate like this. I don't know what it is with today but everyone on Your Call seemed to be doing some DIY. Choons today included Hard-Fi, The Avenue, Kaiser Chiefs and a classic from Sum 41. There was also one girl who wanted 'Superstar' by Love Inc, but argued the name was something like Milk Inc. God knows where they got this woman from, she didn't even seem bothered about the whole Your Call thing! Finally there was a caller on the phone, listening to Radio 1 whilst riding a horse!

Tonight's 'Most Wanted' was 2Pac, Ghetto Gospel.

Also Today

Scott had Justin Hawkin's new single, he's the one off of The Darkness. I'd like your opinion on this one, get on to our message board. And more discussion of Big Brother – nominations, 'at the end of the day' and the musical from last night. I hope he wasn't laying in to the Norfolk accent when he was discussing Craig!

Make sure you check out all of the website, including the message board, I've been updating bits and bobs today – so keep looking around, you might stumble across something new.
