Summer on Radio 1

Alright Treacle?! Another day and another Scott Mills review. Nearly the weekend – can’t wait.

Chappers noticed something behind Scott at the start of the show. It was the finest basket of flowers and they were sent to Scott. Laura used to work in a grocery/flower emporium, and she named some of the flowers – she said it was a very masculine bouquet. There was a lot of fascination over a flower called ‘Little Boys Willies’ – a slang name. The flowers had a card, it said ‘Dear Scott, thanks for the campaign to get The Hoff to number 1, David Hasselhoff.’ Scott wondered why The Hoff was sending him flowers; he would have preferred a massive cookie from back in the nineties.

Chappers: “You ungrateful git, honestly, he sent you a massive bunch of flowers.â€

Scott was worried because he had to carry the flowers home on the bus – and he didn’t feel comfortable about it.

Back to the cookie thing, they were huge cookies off of the nineties; they were in every shopping mall all over the country. Instead of buying a birthday cake you’d get a big cookie in a big pizza box. The cookie would have your message on it in icing. Chappers had never heard of them.

Unofficial Mills

Scott said there was a poll going on at the moment on a website that is very dear to his heart – Unofficial Mills. The poll is their own version of Banzai – and what will actually happen next on the show. Chappers is featured highly in the poll. Scott read some of the options out on air. At the moment it’s quite close between ‘Chappers uses foul language in front of millions’ and ‘Laura gets up the duff’ which is in the lead.

All this led to a story about his flatmate. His flatmate does sound a bit camp and his mum is still convinced he’s gay. When he came back from Sri Lanka with Scott and Laura his mum asked if he had met any nice boys and girls while there. His flatmate is not gay; he’s 26 years old and is a lady magnet. Recently a girl had to be hypnotised so she could stop thinking about him. Go to the forum to vote and find out more!

More about The Hoff

Martin who was on his way back from Manchester rang Scott because he had some news about The Hoff for Scott. He got to meet The Hoff at the Arndale Centre in Manchester – he got his book signed. Scott asked listeners if any of them are going to see The Hoff because he’s doing millions of book signings all over the country could they pass on a message: “ thank you for the flowers†as he signs the book. If people are going to one of the book signings, Scott wants them to get The Hoff to write ‘you ate the food you drank the wine do the right thing’ in the book.

Scott and his Ideas

Chappers thought Scott said ‘how would you like to hang the Scissor Sisters’ when in fact Scott said ‘how would you like to hang with the Scissor Sisters’. This gave Scott an idea, Scott thought the ratings would go through the roof if they hung the Scissor Sisters. He decided to call it ‘Public Execution of Popstars on Radio 1’ - you could even watch it by pressing the red button on any BBC channel - Including an advert for Justin Timberlake in the electric chair.

Slip Ups

Scott made a few slip ups during the show. For the Scissor Sisters competition, Scott said ‘enter the Scissor Sisters’. Plus he still doesn’t get the game ‘Scissor Sisters Paper Stone’. On ‘Your Call’, Emma off of York asked for Nelly Furtado – Promiscuous. By accident Scott pressed the wrong button and played Britney Spears – Toxic. Scott later got a phone call from Johnny off of Glasgow. He wanted to know why Scott had cut Britney to put Nelly Furtado on. Scott explained about the rules of ‘Your Call’. He ended up playing Britney Spears – Toxic for Johnny.

The Worst Quiz in History

Scott thought people were being harsh because they thought ‘Scissor Sisters Paper Stone’ was the Worst Quiz in History. Chappers thought Scott was texting in to his own show. Scott then named some of the games he thought were the Worst Quiz in History. The games included: ‘Snakes and Ladders’, ‘What Fish Am I?’, ‘Guess the Mystery Salad Dressing’ (Scott thinks he should bring it back) and ‘My Little Pony’. If you had a pony what would you name it - Scott thought ‘My Little Pony’ was maybe the Worst Quiz in History.

The K Fed

Scott’s a fan of Kevin Federline – he thinks The K Fed is amazing and he’s fascinated by him. Scott wondered what The K Fed did apart from spend Britney’s millions. On the internet Scott found Kevin’s music video for his new single where he raps slowly. Chappers could understand every word he was rapping.

Update on Laura and James

At the weekend James moved in with Laura. Laura said it’s going well. Yesterday she set James a challenge – he had to cook Laura a vegetarian pasta dish without using any pasta sauces. Laura said the meal was very nice – he made pasta bake with a salad. She took a picture of the meal on her phone to show Scott and Chappers - they said it didn’t look nice from the picture.
