Sport Relief - Scott's Miles From Hell


Viv

Recommended Posts

Viv, I'm still not sure what number and what to text. Maybe you could tell us AGAIN.

No problem.... it's SCOTT to 70011

Zane Lowe last night did a fantastic job of motivating people to give money to S.R. Zane Lowe is exactly the kind of high-energy person needed for something like this.

Good luck to Mills for today's task 0f 386 flights of stairs... today's task includes buildings, such as 1 Canada Square and the BT Tower.

I'm actually rather worried about Scott today. That's a hell of a lot of steps to climb. Hope he'll be upto completing the remaining tasks/presenting his show today after this.

.

Totally agree with this. Luckily, Moyles is getting him a sports massage tomorrow ... It's absolute physical Hell though....

Today Mills is rolling round Kensington Gardens... If you feel impressed by this, please text SCOTT to 70011.

A. Once again, the cash goes to great causes.... for example, 1 in 5 teenagers self-harm in the UK.... there are organisations where people can go to talk things through, for example, the Wish Centre in Harrow.... All the cash keeps places like this going!!

B. £2.50 can pay for a personal alarm for someone who has been attacked/raped. Imagine the confidence this can give to a person trying to overcome the fear of getting on with a daily life many people take for granted.

Kensington Park... would that be the Kensington Gardens part of Hyde Park then?

Er... I think so... I have edited now!! ha ha

I've been in that park as a small child.... It's very posh, so I hope Scott does not do it a disservice by vomiting all over it. SCOTT to 70011. ;-)

I know how he felt today. I wear those wrist band things most days and I've got some illness causing motion sickness every day for three months! Seeing my GP during the Wonder Years.

£150,000 is an immense figure for Scott to have raised.

just seen this on sport relief site

A special Mile has just taken place in London where adventurer Ben Fogle and Olympian James Cracknell pulled Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills in a rickshaw all the way around the route. Scott's been completing a Mile from Hell all this week to raise cash - but we suspect it was Ben and James who felt more of the pain in today's final challenge!

I'll put my pic up too!! View of my ass - just what you want to look at first thing on a Monday - heading towards the run - Dean Castle Country Park, Kilmarnock, Ayrshire - mile achieved. Woo!! Too easy.

Interesting to see someone had put their Labrador dog into the mile, complete with Sport Relief sign - I've seen everything now!! ha ha

And WE didn't get goodie bags, like Kizmok - no fair... What was in the bags?? Sweeties?? Congrats anyway, Kirsty!! :-)

Dean Country Castle, East Ayrshire.

Traditional Scottish castle- they used to fight and shoot from here - We had to run past this at the start - our run seems to have been a bit more old-fashioned than the city runs I saw on the TV. :-)

Killer hill which we had to run up - many people had to stop here - ran up this, around and down the other side and backwards to the castle area.

Finally, the best area - the CAFE - with the cakes, buns and sweets!! And cappuccinos and vanilla lattes!! They should sponsor people to sit and eat buns!!

:hahaha:

    • I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right! 
    • Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!
    • Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.
    • If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.
    • The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!
    • What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.
    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
