I was thinking about this earlier, what has been your favourite piece of Scott Mills show history? There's plenty to choose from since 2004 - whether it's 24 Years at the Tap End, Laura's Diary, the Scott Mills Musical or maybe it's just one of those random moments on-air. Leave your thoughts below.

“You’re fattest”, “No, your fattest!” with Charlie Sloth, followed by a whopper (WHOOOO!) from Charlie then, him being wheeled out the studio. The incident with Matt Edmondon that finished the feature was both a shame and funny. The less said about Mr Sloths departure the better!

Good Riddens to Sloth.

Matt filled in for Scott and did the feature one day. As they were wheeling Sloth out, they caught the ‘big red’ reset button and took R1 off air. Judging by the way Matt was when they came back on air 20 minutes later (they went to emergency music) it was clear that wasn’t planned. Matt a while later admitted what had happened.

If the nighttime hours of the Lolathons count, I'd pick those few hours with all the DJs telling dirty jokes together.

If it has to be daytime stuff, I was considering the Perfect Christmas Single, the Fun & Filth Cabaret, the Trapped in The Closed Hip-Hopera and Real or No Real, especially Fat Tuesdays.

*in chart voice* But who's gonna be number 1? ...it's Go On Pigs! https://youtu.be/cMOra2eMxh0?t=367

This is gold, how could I miss this.

His times with Chappers and Laura, although I do still listen from time to time nowdays if I'm in the car.

 

Laura's diary was fantastic. But as a one off's those prank calls were brilliant. I remember Radio 1 were going really annoyingly OTT with Mika circa early 2007, I frankly can't stand his music. Scott did a call to an estate agent pretending to be him doing a "rendition" of Grace Kelly which is in the archives on here and worth a listen.

There's also "Brokeback Westwood", which left my sides hurting whilst everyone was looking at me like I'd gone mad whilst listening on the bus back home from Wolverhampton.

    • Roman Kemp 😜 I think Will was at radio 1 at one point wasn't he? 
    • Hats off to Chris for leaving a challenge for Greg.  To plan that out was great detailing and proves what a talented guy he is.  The post he posted on Instagram also links into it which is great to.  There is loyalty to Greg there so I don't think he's joining Capital.  Persephonica was looking for an 'experienced entertainment producer' a few months ago. I wonder if this is where Chris might be heading? 
    • Jordan North… Seriously though, out of the commercial stations I only really listen to Capital but I do think Will Manning is very strong (and could quite easily slot into R1). I also think Jimmy Hill is a very good commercial DJ (but probably wouldn’t be as good on R1).
    • First link made me blush 
    • Who do you think is the best commercial presenter? This is your view, doesn't have to be who has the most ratings 
    • Starting off strong. 
    • I remember Chase and Status being added to the line-up for Coventry after a drop out. At the time it seemed a bit random, but they seem massive again now!
    • That is a bit strange, yes. Fair point. Oh yes, I'd say both are equal. It's just they'll have been on Instagram for some time, whereas TikTok will have been a new addition in recent years, so something probably has to give. Us anoraks like to see Twitter as important, but I find myself putting much more time into those other platforms. Incidentally when I applied for a social job there probably four years back (wasn't successful!) I did say I thought the audience wanted more insight from the station rather than just content around the stars. I think they've moved a lot more in that direction, especially with the visualisation in the studio. You see more of Greg James than Harry Styles. I don't envy the PR machine at Radio 1 going straight from Mollie King's challenge to Big Weekend announcements without a break!
    • Since they starting the big weekend right at the end of Matt & Mollie’s show I expect they get to do the duties of opening up the festival.
    • Matt and Mollie and Sam and Danni have DJ sets on Friday of Big Weekend, still makes me think they are really keen to push both pairings in a hole left by Jordan.
    • Broadcast wise it’s going to be interesting to see how they handle the performances starting at the same time as the chart show.
    • Yes sort of, although it’s still weird that they tweeted when Mollie was halfway completed but did not do so when she crossed the finish line.
    • it would make sense to ensure both instagram and TikTok are treated as equals and kept in tandem as reels and downloads of instagram are growing when TikTok I think I’ve heard is stagnating.    I mean it makes sense to do less with Twitter or X as it has change. There has been a lot of change in how its run and operate with focus on making it a platform people pay for and its been volatile for advertising with lots of loss in paid promotions on the platform and the business worth has been waining and any communications and marketing for any business and organisations are seeing that
    • I feel like all ATB songs started with some sort of airport in their video
