What's your favourite moment from the Scott Mills show... ever!

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
    • Just Vick and Katie on Wednesday (and presumably Thursday as well).
    • Unless people can provide a source for this information then it should be treated as false.   Why would Jordan sign a contract with the BBC in the autumn when he agreed a deal with Global?  He could have left in August and not had to deal with the BBC.  Vick who doesn't really like Global why would she recommend him to go there and then warn him in her post to be careful?   It's been whispered from October that Roman was thinking of going.  Roman and Jordan have the same management team.  Why would they put Jordan in a place where he would have to battle with the BBC.  They could have agreed a deal with Global for Jordan in the summer.  They might have had to pay first couple months but they would do they to secure him.  If they had known about Roman wanting to leave they could have paid Roman off to get Jordan on air quicker.  Global would also not had legal around BBC contract to deal with and would not have had to pay the BBC to release Jordan.  None of what people say makes sense and if it did happen the way people say then BBC are not the stupid ones.  It really is not a good look to be talking with Global for 6 months, to then sign a contract with a the BBC, continue to talk to Global behind BBC's back after signing and then couple of months later want to leave and to throw a hissy fit as the BBC are not giving you what you want when you want it. That not a good light for Jordan or his management.   
    • Wow, surprised he signed a new contract in September but it says a lot about Jordan that he continued to a very high standard throughout last summer/autumn if this was all going on in the background. 
    • They knew Roman wanted to leave early last year but wasn't officially announced but he gave them time to sort replacement. Found and offered Jordan a deal in June or July and needed time to get Jordan out of Contract at bbc and roman to do notice  Jordan had dinner with Katie Vick and Arielle to ask advice and all said he should go.   
    • And they told Radio 4’s Feedback that it was an ‘experiment’ to ‘look at the best way to serve young listeners’ but reaffirmed that 280 hours commitment.
    • I doubt he wanted to go to Global if a slot before he found out kemp was leaving.
    • We're hoping to get some answers in the coming weeks
    • From what he's saying on the Pod he's been trying to get out of r1 for a while. Looks like he needed to wait for a show on global to be available. Jordan had bbq last summer with most of thr global execs and he's referenced the deal was in place then. Obviously the hold up was r1 being stubborn
    • All seems to be back to normal this morning.
    • Indeed and Jordan was already friends with Sian Welby, Will Manning and Jimmy Hill.  
    • It's great to see those friendships still thriving. I think the days of Radio 1 DJs and Capital DJs being unable to co-exist is long over. You used to either be firmly BBC or commercial, and you don't get the sense that's the case anymore. 
    • Maia Beth will be presenting the Radio 1 Happy shows from the 27th April replacing Katie.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001ydkr
    • Vick and Jordan together on Insta (with Ariel’s) in Ibiza. You do imagine Jordan’s ex colleagues have a very different attitude to him than management. Comments on Help! And very subtle comments on Capital Breakfast suggest Jordan was frustrated with Radio 1 / BBC management.  
    • I can name quite a few people on this forum who would be better presenters than Danny.
