Talking about Scott Mills on a Scott Mills forum... hmmm... it's so 2005 isn't it?

Come on, let's be serious, the last time there was a proper debate about it was a while ago, and now there's a fair amount of new members it's good to see what people's views are on it.

True, however - how much can you debate on someone's sexuality before it gets boring?

If I was a well known Radio Presenter, the last thing i'd want to see or read about is a bunch of loyal fans talking about if I like guys. Ask yourself, would like people talking about you in this way? I wouldn't.

Fans should know everything about him, you can read pretty much everything about him on this site. Scott has admitted to being gay ages ago in magazine and i'm pretty sure he's either said it on air, or hinted to it.

If you listen to the show regularly, you can start to pick up somethings that suggest he's otherwise gay.

Unlike The Chris Moyles Show where Aled seems to be happy with Chris ripping the bobobobo out of him, he's not the center of attention on the show where as Mills probably feels that part of his life has not real place on the show.

Ask yourself, the question a couple of times of why does scott never admit? Its because he doesn't have to. Maybe he's finding it hard to admit on the radio? Maybe he just likes people to guess? Maybe he just doesn't want that kind of attention.

Not everyone knows, which is a good % of people that listen, partly because they clearly aren't able to realise this and get a shock when they do. The amount of people i've heard say, "Oh my god - Scott Mills is gay"

Its hard being gay without having the pressure of telling people. Would it matter if Scott was straight, would he have to admit to being straight too? It's only because some of the other DJs at Radio 1 have wife's or are known to be seeing people that are female that they openly admit to doing this and that with them.

When I was at School, I obviously knew I was gay. But I didn't feel the need to go about letting everyone in my way know about it. Nor do I openly let people know on forums or when i'm meeting people for the first time. Some people are intelligent enough to realise this by my actions when they get to know me.

Only later in life did I feel the need to let my family know and my friends. This was a hard time and to be honest with you, its a bit like an operation in the respect you've got to tell the people you trust the most first.

This topic should be put into a more general direction, rather than one individual. For example, what do people think about the media outing well known people like the Ex-BP chap or Jodie Foster? I could go on for ages to answer that but what i'm trying to say is - that this topic should be developed and discussed on wider matter.

But we're not discussing if he likes guys. It's a forum. The soul purpose of it is for people who have questions to come and get opinions from those that listen. I'd rather the guy got a sensible answer than no answer at all.

And now you've joined in the debate ;)

I dont think that scott should have to say anything.... his private life is his own.

But I do think its strange that he seems to play at being straight in some of his comments and asides...I dont know how to take some comments... like last week with the fake marriage... taking the bobobobo out of the idea of two girls being lesbians.

There is also something about him and all the other DJs being public figures on National radio and therefore being someone who might influence public opinion, both for good and bad. So maybe it wouldnt hurt for him to come across as a more openly gay figure.

"I never talk about anything to do with my sexuality. I just don't think I need to. People ask me all the time. But I just don't see the point. In order to survive I've kind of shut up different parts of my life, and that's one of them, especially this early in my career."

    • 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.
    • Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?
    • I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.
    • Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.
    • I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.
    • With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot.
