2 August 2005: Chappers On Call, Star Phone and Most Haunted

 

Well after hearing the shocking news that the Mitchell brothers are talking to Zane Lowe tonight, Scott gave me and the website a mention after I sent in an e-mail. Thank you to Scott for clarifying it isn't Grant and Phil off of Eastenders.

So it's Tuesday, and it's the Scott Mills Show once more. Let's get on with the review…

So 10 minute into the show and Scott's already on the conversation of Big Brother and Craig. Anyone know his sexuality? It's one of life's unsolved matters, and he really is keeping us in suspense.

Scott: "Stop crying you goon!"

I quite agree, and he definitely has to go this week, without fail! And Scott's jumped on the bandwagon and now loves Eugene after his Irish jig last night. We're going to have wait another week until Craig leaves as he's not up for eviction this week. Damn them!

Chappers On Call

Chappers is back once more, and had a hilarious new game. He's adapted the 'answerphone game' and he's out to exploit being put on hold adding a bit of variety to his phone games. Basically Scott rings a company, has a chat and puts them on hold as Chappers pretends to be the automated voice, playing some great music…

Today Scott rang the company that rings him every night at home trying to sell him a new phone. After speaking to him for 30 seconds about the offer Scott put him on hold playing some cheesy Eurovision music and letting Chappers takeover:

Your Call

"You are in queue person three… your call will be answered in approximately four minutes… You are in queue person five… your call will be answered in approximately twelve minutes… let me introduce you to our latest home insurance deal… are you deaf?"

This continued for ages until eventually the guy on the other end put the phone down.

Lots of love for this feature on the text, and one texter would love to hear the Eurovision 2004 album once more. Scott reckons the songs will rank quite highly in the Download Chart.

Scott plans for this to be a 'semi-regular' feature, so if you have any ideas for where Scott can call, get in touch with the team – [email protected]

Tonight on Your Call you can anything apart from stuff by 'Gay Dad'. Tracks tonight included Kaiser Chiefs, Fatman Scoop, Green Day and Prodigy.

One guy performed a song on Your Call changing James Blunt's song to his own lyrics as he has a crush on Jo Whiley. Jo Whiley then came on the air to thank James for the song. Yeah, that wasn't creepy at all… And there was also one girl who claimed she'd been shopping in York, the town where Scott did Most Haunted. It turned out she hadn't been in many shops at all.

And finally Jon Tickle left an answerphone message on Laura's phone saying he was following two rather fit girls…

Tonight's 'Most Wanted' was Kanye West – Diamonds (From Sierra Leone)

'How dooooo Sarah!'

Alot of text reaction today asking to hear yesterday's Flirt Divert messages once again. Check out yesterday's reviews to read a bit more about the Flirt Divert UK messages.

The Star Phone

After much anticipation to find out who has the phone, Scott gave it another call. Which celebrity had Jenny Frost off of Atomic Kitten given it to? Well it turns out whoever had the phone has dumped it now, as the phone was switched off. As Chappers said: 'Third time lucky…'

Rate Them Happy

Today's Rate My Swimwear person is 'Vanessa from Kent'. She's not fussy about her ideal boyfriend – first she said Scott but then Billy Zane. Scott guessed her bra size as 32D. It's a 34D, but he's not that far out.

Vanessa: Scott can I request a song for after five… it's Panic Cell…"

Scott: "… It's great to speak to you Vanessa…

Chappers was finding the latest Rate My Swimwear photographs very amusing. One texter thinks that she's another Rod Stewart look-a-like.

Also Today…

The Imogen Heap argument continued – one of the team members that doesn't speak is close to speaking his mind on-air over this song. Anyway, love or not, Scott played it again this evening as it's his Record of The Week.

Texter: "It's Dido versus Darth Vader"

More from Mills tomorrow, and I'll be back with another review.
