  1. Did he not mention recently hes just signed up gain anyway? 

    Think your right (I think you are a R1 DJ hiding behind an alias.... and if you are WOW love it that I am talking to you on a forum...) Love his show and it appeals to me so much because it hits my age range (I am 37) as well as a good time as I am a shift worker so can usually catch him 

    Like Greg as well and Grimmy 

    For me (as I kept tweeting at the 50th) Scott and Greg are the Mike Read and Mayo of my generation 

    Would love to see Scott cover another stint on breakfast 

     

    I think Grimmy isn't going anywhere yet either 

  2. I think he will go the same way Coxy did

    I think Coxy will get the next permanent slot on 2, at which point he will come off of his slot to be replaced with someone like Grimmy coming off breakfast to make way for a newbie then Just covering loads of shows, so still full time on both stations, covering R1 breakfast and other slots still as well as R2 Breakfast, Drive and Ken Bruce's slot and maybe taking over Sounds of the xx's 

  3. They were all talking about filming the ad yesterday, seemend to be done in the afternoon with all 4 daytime DJs Scott posted a pic of him and Greg

    Makes sense why Jam covering drive now to release Greg to be with the other 3 to do the filming

     

    Also did anyone hear Scotts reveal today about 35 mins into the show

  4. Has Dan P carter and Phil Taggart gone?

    Scotts WIKI says 1998 not a month though

    Charlie Sloth may move to R1? he appears on RONR sometimes and helped with big weekend and how about A Dot but she seems too specialist, I can see Clara going to Annie Macs slot one day making way for a new live lounge host - Adele or Alice

    Cant see Grimmy going anywhere at the moment, he seems to have settled from the days when he wouldn't appear for work and big nights out

    I think Greg is in the zone Scott was about 8 years ago, next logical choice for breakfast but the resident host in place not showing any sign of going and by the time they do too late

    Would they give Scott one last swansong as permanent Breakfast host if Grimmy was moved off do we think? maybe for a couple years?

    Here is a thought of what may happen in say 5 years; If Scott eventually gave his show up and started the transition to R2 (I think if Ken Bruce or Steve Wright were to semi retire to weekends or something the gap would appear then) assuming they would need a cover DJ if Sara Cox got a permanent show (assuming she would replace KB or SW) maybe Scott would do what she does, sounds of the 80s/90s and cover the main R2 shows (probably half a years work through the year) apart from Vine's show although he could make a blinding job of that as well as he does have a serious side, and also cover shows on R1 still being the primary breakfast cover for Grimy and maybe cover his "old" show and maybe some other bits and then fill a permanent slot on R2 (drive time or Breakfast or the big show) I am sure Cox did a few years covering shows on R1 and 2 ? If this were to happen would she still be the primary holiday cover for Chris Evans and Scott cover her show (as what happens now on R1 where Scott covers Grimmy and someone else covers Scott)

    Also what was interesting about this article was the fact he said he's not considering a schedule shakeup anytime soon then. That shuts us all up then haha. Also means Mills should Mark his 20th Anniversary with the station whilst still being in a prime daytime slot.

    Indeed very true. Think its pretty established. What he doesn't say of course, is that if a DJ chooses to leave, which could happen, if they feel they want to move on/better bigger job comes along (not saying we want this but always possible). I would love to see Mills at R1 for 20 years, specially in the lead entertainment show on the station - he never fails to impress with new content absolute star, IMO he and Chris should defo be on breakfast full time.

    On that note - I actually think Grimmy will WILL beat Moyles's record, he's over half way there now.

  6. So looks like this is a thing

    Mistajam is covering Breakfast

    So we know Scott is on his own hols, and Grimmy is off until Wednesday, do we know the possible reasons that Dev or Alice would not have been used? is Jam transitioning to R1 (I know he covered Annie, but is this part of finding a new cover presenter in readiness for Scott to leave)

    Is it just they cannot get any of the other R1 guys on

    Would have thought they would have used Dev after Scott then maybe looked at Greg moving slots and someone else covering drive

     

    Any thoughts

     

     

  7. I suspect Moyles would maybe take part as he is the longest breakfast presenter, although cant see him co presenting the breakfast show with the guy who replaced him, who is rapidly (for all the criticism he gets) catching up with the great saviour.

    Coxy, Wrighty, Mayo would defo get involved without a doubt as would Jo Whiley maybe.

    Pretty sure they don't have any live TV coverage anymore since BBC3 closed and it's all on iPlayer/ the website. Greg and Fearne never used to be on the radio over Big Weekends because they were hosting the live BBC3 coverage in the evenings. That would be Greg and Clara now if they still did it so the fact they're both doing a lot of the radio coverage and that live TV coverage isn't really necessary to reach the R1 target audience would suggest there's none

    Maybe it will be on the website live to stream? or Iplayer will have a special R1 channel for the days?

    Haven't listened to it yet but generally, pretty sure Scott and Grimmy get on well. Grimmy came in for the Lolathon, they were hanging out together with Sara Cox at the Brits, whenever Scott mentions Grimmy on his show it seems to be in a friendly way. No beef there I reckon. Probably more to do with a caller using catchphrases from another show.

    I reckon Scott would have been pissed that Grimmy got the breakfast show in 2012

    I hope that Scott Mills lasts a a few more years at BBC R1 but I feel that Chris Stark works well with Scott

    I think he will last a few more years, but we may see things like him covering on R2 hopefully not too soon because I love his R1 show, although on R2 I reckon we would hear more from him, as in he would get to do more talking and entertaining

    The good thing about Chris is he can literally slot into any show and still seem a good fit - whether that's with Greg James, Alice Levine, Matt Edmondson, etc.

    I wonder if they would do to Greg what they did to Scott a few years ago, when Scott goes move him on to the 1 to 4 again and put one of the guys like Alice or Matt on drive with Chris? I however love Alice and Chris on the 1-4 when she has covered Scott - provided Scott didn't take the big show at R2 I would continue to listen to R1 with those two.

    I would have to keep swapping my shifts for lates if Scott got a morning show on R2 - I also wonder if a commercial station will snap him up - Radio X could do the "go to work with Moyles and home with Mills" tag line from the early noughties R1 used to use
