Radio 2 in the Park 2024

[Ian]

From the webcam it looks like she is the producer of the new 5:19 show.

[The Stig]

Poor girl. Supppose someone has to.

[Viv]

Oh dear, poor Laura... I wish she was back with Scott.

[Roy H]

Me too, although I do like Beccy. Hope shes back this week.........

[Viv]

I'm actually getting a bit fed up with all the absences... at least Laura was at least half way reliable.

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

yeah she generally had her hols etc same time as Scott, which is the way it should be. Scott needs a sidekick, a regular one, it's not been the same show with no Chappers and that, though Chappers seems to be doing fine on 5live.

[Viv]

I totally agree. I don't mind an odd absence, but the amount of days off she seems to have is pretty bloody remarkable!!

Chappers is clearly loving his new world, but yep, I too would like another male voice on air, providing it's a contrast to Scott, the way Chappers was.

Viv, that bloody lazy Greg James should stay on and chat with Scott & Beccy xx

[MrDoovdeHaxorz]

He'd only end up perving on Beccy the way Moyles does with Fearne Cotton during their handover :hahaha:

[Joe Boy]

Scott always says she's on courses, which the BBC probably send her on. I doubt she's skiving!

[DC]

i think people forget laura too easily, it's a shame we don't hear as much of her these days.

[Viv]

It would be good actually if he could stay on, even just for 20 minutes, or so.

[Viv]

Eh, why should she? Does anyone tell you that you have to take the same holidays as your work mate? I think that would be a bit unfair.

Often in workplaces, it DOES make sense to go on hols at the same time as your boss. That's often been the case in places I've worked in..... otherwise, you need to bring in a temporary person, who, by the time, they know what they are doing, it's time for them to go.

[Jugalug]

It's not as though she's off a lot.

I beg to differ.

[DarkAngelMJH]

That's because she's been on a lot of courses though.

[Viv]

Well Scott isn't Beccy's boss and although this may be the case in a few work places it doesn't apply to The Scott Mills Show. It's not as though she's off a lot.

Yeh, but she's working with/for him even, dealing with the podcasts, and kind of as a P.A. sometimes. How do you deal with a P.A. who is absent every week.

If it had been in any job, I've ever been in, I would have been fired.

Plus, how many courses can the one person go on!!

[The Stig]

Plus, how many courses can the one person go on!!

When you work as a producer, for the BBC in Radio Production several. I'm not entirely sure how you can comment on the circumstances regarding Beccy's absenses when you don't know why she is absent and have no knowledge of the environment she works in or the job she does. If she was ebsent too often without good reason there is no way she would still be in one of the biggest jobs in national radio.

[Viv]

Whatever.. I really don't care that much....It ain't my situation (as you say, in fact) Typical for a fuss to kick off over nothing.

I was just comparing the difference between her and Laura, who always seemed to be there, and, as someone else was saying, always seemed to take hols at same time as Scott.

Let's just give it a rest, eh. You're making my head fizz.
