I've never listened, what are they doing? Cutting the songs original length down? That's a cardinal sin in my opinion. However I do like the fact radio 1 is looking back more than 5 to 10 years from time to time.

That's one of the most pathetic things I've seen in a long time. Moyles hasn't been with the BBC for close on 15 years now, he's with Global. The BBC can't force Global to do anything to him. It was in the papers in 2002, it's been and gone. Charlotte actually went on Chris' show a couple of times in the following years. I think 2005 when she did 'Crazy Chick' etc. If she was so miffed she wouldn't have gone near, even back then. GB news needs to be taken off the air, or burnt to the ground.

I think with the way it's transpiring it looks as though it will be Sara, but they can't force her if she wants to stay on drive. Getting up at 4am every morning is a proper grind, and she did a good few years of that for Radio 1 in the early 00's. If so, maybe Trevor Nelson to drive which wouldn't be such a huge change for him. And afternoons, Mark & Lard to come back and revive the biggest show? I can dream. Probably will give Rylan the slot or someone.

If this is what it may be mentioned above, a bitter ex who is trying to get back at him. And this is as far as it goes. I can imagine Scott back on the radio down the line, if he wants too of course. If he is to ever do anything again it will be a few years away though, I can't imagine the strain this last week must have been tbh.

Celebrity Calls, Brokeback Westwood, Camp Man, Laura's Diary, Innuendo Bingo, Flirt Divert. Way too many to mention.

Vernon will be the one if he's up for it and the early starts. Sara could do it, but I feel as though she's so settled now on drive. And how do you replace her there? That's another thing all together.

There is an old saying innocent until proven guilty. It feels though many out in the wide world, have already made their mind up without knowing everything that went on. None of us actually do. And maybe we never will. 1997/8/9 is a very long time ago now. A different world those days, and all you can go on from back then is people's word really. There's a bigger anti BBC agenda here above Scott that's at play, on top of what may and may not have happened with Scott back then. The bottom line is. The police and the law have the final say on what the verdict is, nobody else. So all you can go on is their judgement. They say they looked at it, didn't take it further. That may or may not change, but if they say it's case closed for now Scott is a free man at the end of the day.

It's bought a few of us old lot back this has, it's so sad it happens to be these circumstances. I'm hoping the same too. But none of this looks great at all to say the least. I'd like to remember the good times especially when I listened lots with Chappers and Laura and then Becky, but it's even hard to do that given the situation. I wonder what's going through their minds right now, probably the same as ours I guess.

For any reference, here's the original guardian article about Scott coming out as gay in April 2001. 25 years ago. Not that it's relevant to anything recent but it's just for the record to clear up any confusion https://www.theguardian.com/media/2001/apr/07/uknews1

Bizarre. He may of been long before 1997 anyway, just a hunch on it. The article in case of interest anyway was 2001. May of been the guardian article he came out in if I recall. Besides, if this had been a girl. Same rules apply. So it's totally irrelevant anyway.

Moyles probably if I'm up and about that early, or at work on an early. Or Absolute Radio for Dave Berry. The adverts on both drive me mental though. "PPI, PPI for me, PPI for you... Subject to availability" Head doing.

I'd say Vernon is a safe bet, I like OJ and he's deserved a daytime slot for a while. Clara still seems a strong Radio 1 age range and I think is too young for that job. Greg will be at Radio 1 for a few more years imo. Sara is another serious option with OJ taking drive. People forget she did the Radio 1 breakfast show for a number of years in the early 00's. But now she's a better moulded and more experienced presenter. Still can't quite believe I'm writing the above.

Well that's astonishing if this alleged situation happened back in those days, it's taken this long to come to light. Scott must have been in his early 20's back then. I mean if this person was say 17 or something at the time, then although there's the legal border they weren't that far apart in age terms.

Heart is my thinking if it is to ever happen again. Greatest Hits is too oldie worldie for Scott imo.

This is still tough to call, in regards to if we'll hear Scott on the radio again. If this is just a break of BBC guidelines, especially if they have doubled down on things in recent years. Then in a couple or so years time we could hear him on something like Heart. I think the BBC are far more careful than say Global and Bauer because of what they have endured with other former employees over the past couple of decades. But if this is more serious then it could be all over. I guess it will come out in time whatever it is, and any future could look clearer when it does.
